Thank you for the reminder that Fritz and the Tantrums exist. I also looked up the song and it's a great song to elevate my mood.

Oh I hope you don’t regret the popcorn. I had braces a few years ago and always regretted eating something I shouldn’t. When I got them off after two years, I wasn’t as into popcorn as much as before. I still enjoy it, but am satisfied with one of the super small bags at the theatre. If only the same held for other…

I’ll try to convince him to come out before the full moon anyway since I’m 38 weeks tomorrow and more than ready for him to be born. Once my doctor, apparently, helped deliver over 20 babies during a shift. This is was a once-in-a-career moment, but I wonder if it was a full moon that night. He did think maybe some…

The full moon is the day before my due date! What does this mean for me?! :D

Oh, I’m super uncomfortable. I have a lot of pelvic pain that I didn’t have the first time. I’m getting some acupuncture later today to see if that helps things. I found some parts easier since I know what to expect but overall harder since I had my toddler to deal with. You get through it though. I'm hoping the boys…

She’s beautiful! I am 37 weeks pregnant with my 2nd and so super jealous of those glasses of champagne you have planned. For whatever (lush) reason, I’ve craved sparkling wine this entire pregnancy. I’m tempted to bring a small bottle to the hospital with me. ;) That’s wonderful that you’re feeling better about the…

Haha we definitely referenced it at least 5 times a week since our toddler was 6 months old. He turned 2 today and I’m sure there will be a comment about “happy birthday to the ground” if he doesn't keep all his birthday cake on his plate. We also constantly tell him he can't throw things on the ground since he isn't…

Haha, immediately who I thought about!

I don’t think he was, I think he only started “seeing” the correct images after a few rounds of being shocked.

That’s true! The last card that Venkman holds up for the poor guy is “seen” correctly, thus showing there is a possible connection between negative reinforcement and psychic ability. Sure, Venkman uses his experiments as an excuse to hit on hot college ladies, but he's still a scientist.

The nursery is so beautiful! I’m 30 weeks next week and haven’t really done much to prepare for the baby. He’s our second though, so we have most of the stuff already. I don’t think I finished my older son’s nursery though until a month before my due date, so go you! Now you can sit back and relax.

Yep! The swim diaper was great! Have you tried their overnights yet? I'm planning on trying a pack when I run out of the giant box of Huggies overnights.

I love the diapers and get really excited about the fun patterns every month. My son’s butt has bananas on it. I don't care what type of person this makes me. :D

Wow! That is really awesome! It would be wonderful to see that becoming a normal thing all over the country.

I’ve had some teacher friends tell me that they have seen that kids that don’t go to preschool do fall behind their peers in kindergarten. That said though, it probably greatly depends on the skills their caregivers taught them and the school district’s expectations. Good luck to your son! Since you care what people…

Yep, I'm 31 so I think education has changed a lot since I was a kid. (Not sure if they are good or bad changes...) A great nanny then or now would make a huge difference on a child's readiness for school.

Maybe it depends on the school districts but I was just talking about the necessity of preschool these days (I didn’t go and started kindergarten at 4.5) with some friends who are teachers. They’ve noticed that kids who start kindergarten without preschool or transitional kindergarten do fall behind their peers. I’ve…

I love the Jessica Simpson maternity clothes too! I bought a few pieces for my last pregnancy and was happy to be wearing them again with my current pregnancy
