Wait, does the Lego Bilbo come with 2 different heads? Cause on that website you see one version where he has a grim, closed mouth face, and then another where his mouth is open and scared looking.

Your kid sounds awesome!

-laughs- by the time she's 10 there will probably be some other "cool" toy that she wants instead. I was too old for Bratz when they came out, but I remember hearing parents complain about similar problems.

that's a good point. I went through Barbie phases (especially the ones where you got to do stuff, like the ice cream shop barbie). And I honestly would have played with any toy given me, hence why I played with so many of my brother's toys (I had my own but his were obviously cooler because he was older). We'll…

Thanks! Original Size isn't really worried, it was more pointing out a possibility I hadn't thought of.

Fun Size was an option, but my friend came up with Sample Size, and was so proud of herself so I have to use it.

Yes, how you define fast food is super important. Because I usually think of fast food as being McDonalds, Buger King, Wendy's and Taco Bell. But I rarely consider Subway or Chipotle fast food, even though I guess it is.

I was talking about this with my husband (whom I'm officially nicknaming Original Size) about how to approach this with our Sample Size (arriving early August). I think the instigating factor was seeing ads for pink cars. And how when I was a kid I played with matchbox cars, and they didn't need to be pink to appeal…

I was having a similar problem in that I was signed out, but I couldn't sign in again. When I tried it would look like I was signed in but I still couldn't comment. I ended up switching from Firefox to Chrome and it seems to be working correctly again.

My husband has been contemplating going back for a degree in photography since it's his passion (and he's been working as a photographer on the side doing weddings, head shots, food and retail photography for a few years now). I've always supported him in what ever area he wants to go.

I'm really curious what hospital you are talking about. I'm referring to Johns Hopkins, which may provide abortions (I found one site that lists them in a list of hospitals that does, but nothing on their website).

My thoughts exactly. I love him.

Despite the fact that my hospital has a giant 10 foot tall Jesus statue, as far as I can determine they are not religiously affiliated. And when I discussed the conditions that would lead me to abort my (planned and wanted) fetus to my OB and nurses, they didn't bat an eye. (Just had the genetic screening blood…

For what it's worth, I didn't know I was pregnant until I was almost 8 weeks (in fact I was convinced I wasn't), so I certainly drank wine during the first 6 weeks or so (only stopped because I started feeling really nauseous all the time...and my boobs started getting bigger...oh).

Almost 17 weeks pregnant. I'm actually more okay with giving up alcohol than lunch meat. Because where i work there is the salad place, the burger place, the asian cuisine place and the subshop (actually a couple sub places). And I've been eating a lot of salads and chicken terriyaki, but I miss my Italian Subs…

My husband does not have a college degree. But he's worked in machining jobs for the last 8 years and starting 4 years ago began an apprenticeship under a blacksmith, who retired and left the shop to my husband. So he's done very well for himself without a college degree. And I get really pissed when people think…

My husband is really skinny and has the same waist size as I do, but without the hips. He once jokingly put on a pair of my shorts and I was so pissed off that they looked better on him than me. So he's forbidden from wearing my clothing (but I steal his button down shirts to wear over leggings all the time).

My first thought too!

Actually SleeptCat is correct. I tried to type up a response a dozen times, but realized you weren't going to listen to actual geneticists. You made a decision about evolution. Your decision to not believe in it is not based in science, but you don't want to admit this. So instead you just deny all evidence that…

It's really hard to piece out contributions of environment and genetics. My anecdote is that both my brother and I were c-section babies. I have asthma and allergies and he doesn't...but my mom also has asthma and allergies. There are no cases of autism in our family, but we do have a high rate of ADD in both my…
