HAHAHAAH that's what me and my bff were saying. We were texting back and forth, "But seriously. The gloves?! They should be a point deduction."

Agree, this is a joke!
I agree- Yuna Kim is just so incredible, we won't see another one like her for a LONG time... or ever. The first time I saw her skate I thought, "So THIS is what it's supposed to look like...." with my jaw on the floor. And I've been following figure skating since I was a kid, I remember all of the great skaters…
Their eyeliners are amazing! I will never go back to another eyeliner, EVER.
I've never used it to bake- but for cooking and spreading on things? It's heavenly!
Trader Joe's organic butter. Oh. My. God.
I do the same thing!
I think you're right- relaxed moms = relaxed kids, at least in my personal experience and what I've seen among the mom friends I have. I personally hated the smell of wine/beer when I was pregnant with my daughter and only at the VERY end was I craving beer. My husband gave me a few half glasses of guinness in those…
This is awesome!
This is awesome. As the mom of a 1.5 year old with another one on the way, my husband and I try to put our relationship first. Don't get me wrong, we are CRAZY NUTSO IN LOVE with our daughter and drop everything when she needs us and her well-being is of top importance, BUT. We have gone on vacation together 2x…
Yep, a used one will still last a good long time!
We did this for my wedding. We said, "Bring a dish if you want, we'll have the booze, we just want to see your faces. We've been living together for years and don't need anything, so please, no gifts". Most people brought food, and it was TONS OF FOOD. I didn't expect nearly that much! It was casual and I think…
Ha! That's actually really funny and I didn't ever think of that. I mean, I guess she IS technically half of each of us, but she's her own person too, you know? As she gets older (a toddler now) I'm seeing how much she really is HERSELF, and not like each of us in any major way. It's crazy.
I saved the hat my daughter came home from the hospital in a ziploc bag, the smell lasted for about a month, every time I sniffed it I felt this crazy rush!
I remember when my daughter was born my husband and I would just sniff her head and I'd feel high on the smell. It was really intoxicating, I'd feel straight up goofy after I sniffed her. (No drugs involved!) My husband would say, "Isn't this the best thing you've ever smelled? I can't stop sniffing her."
In addition to all of this advice, another thing you can do is work opposite shifts of your partner/spouse to save on daycare. My husband stays home with my daughter during the day while I work, and he works 4 nights a week. Not exactly ideal, but we do get 3 nights and the entire weekend together, and pay zero…
Don't be terrified- it'll be fine! If your mother offered to help, dear God, take her up on it. Have her come live with you for the first few weeks- it'll be so nice to have an extra pair of helping hands around! My mother lives a few hours away too, and our apartment was too teeny for her to stay with us when we…
Ok, I will give you that I did only have 1 child and for me and her, the nursing cover did work for us. I didn't really think anybody could have an issue with them but I guess I didn't even think about that!
I am actually with you, I have a daughter who I breastfed for a full YEAR so clearly I am pro-breastfeeding, but I don't want to see someone elses entire boob in a public place... the nursing covers are cute and easy to use. And I too am grossed out by mandals.
I work full time and have a toddler who my husband watches during the day, and he works at night when I'm home with her. It's working for now, but I do dream of being a stay at home mom sometimes. I will never do it for two reasons: 1) I'm afraid of financial instability and feel like I always need to have an income…
