Prayers for little Catalina. A few things that might help:

Same here. My youngest will be 3 in a few months.

Yes, I’d recommend tossing it. The microbeads are really bad for the environment. Several states are banning them because they build up in sea life. It’s not worth it. Kroger often has the Colgate I like on sale for $1 per tube.

Crest Pro Health is the worst because it abrades the inside of your mouth. I was getting these white stringy things inside my mouth, and I though it was just dried drool from me sleeping with my mouth open or something. The hygenist noticed it when I went in for a cleaning, and she asked me if I was using Crest Pro…

So sorry. I had preeclampsia with my second and I ended up in the hospital for almost three weeks before they took him 6 weeks early. He’s fine now and almost three. But my doctor told me the only cure was delivering the baby. So if they send you to the hospital for monitoring, be prepared that it might be until the…

I agree. I liked the series in the beginning, but when they turned Jess’ character more towards screwball comedy it didn’t work for me. I never thought she was funny. I hate Nick and Jess together. I don’t think they have any chemistry, or that he was particularly good for her or to her.

Or you get the hints from Mama Doo about when your fat ass is going to lose that weight.

That is good advice! I was guilty of faking it with my first partner. I’ll remember that when Little Doo is old enough for The Talk.

That’s exactly the way his preschool teacher said she teaches boys to sit on the potty. And yes, I’m lucky that his preschool potty trains. His poor teacher though - there’s around 10 children in the 2 year old class, and only one girl out of the 10 children is potty trained. The rest of the children, including my…

My 2.75 yo won’t even sit on the potty. He’s still fully in diapers and won’t let me put pull-ups on either. After reading this article, I might skip the pull-ups and just have the pantsless weekend during the summer.

The scene by the waterfront where Wendy Crowe deliberately crashes the car to get away from the bad guy is downtown Long Beach, CA, on the Long Beach Grand Prix route. I didn’t realize it until one night when I was down there and saw the spiral parking ramp lit up. Long Beach is also home to the tower the girl falls…

I’m only watching for Schmidt. The last episode I watched, I fast forwarded through the scenes that didn’t have him in it.

Steel Magnolias is my go to movie when I need a good cry.

I have 5 fibroadenomas (noncancerous) in my left breast, and only in my left breast. Every once in a while I get a new one, or one grows, and they biopsy it, which results in me meeting my (high) deductible for the year. I was all set to get myself new boobs this year, as my doctor said the growths and the density of…

My daughter is 9 and my son is 2. He knows he has a penis, and that girls don’t. I have the It’s So Amazing book, and my daughter has the American Girls book on bodies for younger girls. She has another book that explains bodies and there’s one sentence about sex (PIV). The first few times we read it, she didn’t catch…

Don’t cheer me on just yet :-). I’d like to think I’m strong enough at this point to end the relationship if the guy isn’t into oral, but I don’t know if I am. I’ve pretty much just avoided sex and dating for the last 5 years. I stayed with both of those guys longer than I should have, especially considering how bad…

Ask him if you have to let his stick his dick in you EVERY time.

Mama Doo made a grilled cheese sandwich WITH MAYO for me and her grandkids on Sunday. Shudder.

Or the Cheetolini voters who think they would be rich if all their tax money didn’t go to people on welfare. Nevermind the fact that 55% of the federal budget is defense spending, so you’re giving way more of your tax money to Dick Cheney’s buddies at Halliburton than you are to welfare queens.

Exactly. The Little Dude has worn nothing but Crocs for the past year. I paid good money for Stride Rite sneakers in different sizes that I’ve had to give away, unworn, because he refuses to wear any shoes but his Crocs.
