Dave Ramsey does it all the time. Not saying he’s right, he’s often wrong (see his 10% annual return argument or his love of front-loaded funds)

Exactly. I use the calorie estimator to determine if I’m working as hard today as I did yesterday. My fitbit tracks calorie burn and I get reports from Orangetheory after every workout. They don’t match each other but I still know what I burn on a normal day. It varies by level of effort and type of workout. 

Also, curious about that. Sophia seems like a pretty awesome person in general, stood up for herself and her crew on the set of Chicago PD. I highly recommend listening to her interview on Armchair Expert if you can see past listening to Dax Shepard for 90+ minutes.

I can no longer drink grape juice because I was given it as a chaser for cod liver oil when I was hospitalized as a 9 year old. Probably why I don’t like raisins either, but fresh grapes are OK and so is wine. 

We use these with my toddlers. I had to buy two packs because they fight over the colors so now they can both have red plates. https://www.amazon.com/Munchkin-Multi-Divided-Plates-Count/dp/B00PTL87R8/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=munchkin+plate&qid=1556231962&s=baby-products&sr=1-10

I don’t know if it’s time for this 40 year old to rewatch the Dark Crystal. I think I’m still a little scared of it. Definitely not ready for my 2 and 4 year olds. The 4 year old was scared of A Christmas Story last year because she thought he was going to shoot his eye out.

You should have him check out Tony’s Little Italy pizza in Placentia, CA.  

or crawl under the table and hand you used gum while you try to eat your grand slam. 

I’d actually prefer elbows on the table if it meant keeping them closer to the plate so they aren’t dropping all of the food into their lap and the chair on the way to their mouth. Mine are still pretty little (2 and 4) and they’ve learned to pretty much just strip off their shirt before  because they know how messy…

I was allowed to eat any cereal I wanted as a kid. I primarily chose Frosted Flakes and we always had whole milk. But I was also underweight until college. Now, I typically only eat cereal once or twice a week but it’s always whatever I want. And when my kids are in the mood for cereal, they invariably pick “mommy”…

I am all for this. My mother didn’t “encourage’ me to be independent, she just expected it. I even hired my own babysitters when I was 9 or so, they just gave me a list of teenagers to call and schedule everything. I also had to call in sick for her whenever she had bronchitis and lost her voice.

I want my kid to eat dinner because 1) they keep begging me for dessert (even if it’s a single M&M) and 2) I don’t want to deal with a hangry toddler at 2AM because they refused to eat their dinner.

Thank you! This is the response i was looking for and I feel even more validated for being “two and through.”

I also used the dangle feed, but the worst clogged ducts seemed to happen when I was stuck at work. Lots of massage and manual draining was the only thing I could do.

We loved the keyfit 30, so easy to use and install. I also had two different Chicco strollers that allowed for the bucket to easily snap in. We switched to Britax for the convertible seat after lots of research but I don’t think you can go wrong with Chicco products.

Kathryn Hahn was also a good person, but I totally agree. I’m surprised I lasted as long as I did.

I weaned my daughter at about 15 months, when I was pregnant with her baby brother and the pain and nursing aversion was just too much for me. At that point she was really just nursing at wake up and bedtime, so we slowly switched my husband into the nighttime routine. Fortuitiously, she also stopped waking in the…

My son wouldn’t take a bottle for the first four months unless he was truly starving. In the end, we figured out he needed the milk really warm, then he started relenting. But closer to a year, you can start letting them have water. My daughter wouldn’t drink milk from a cup till she was over 18 months, but she loved…

The rest of the school had an 11% acceptance rate this year.
