    Hair question for hair styist or anyone

    It's usually recommended not to do if you are doing something drastic or new and there is a chance it might turn out bad and then you are stuck going to the event looking like that. If it's just your normal cut, highlights and trim and you pretty much trust the person doing it, you're fine. I...

    Styles and Fads from Decades gone by

    It's hard to explain and it was kind of an "art". You basically pinched the bottom of your jeans leg at one corner and folded the pinch over and then rolled the jeans up twice really tight. Looked awful but was so "cool" for some reason. I totally forgot about the baby doll dresses!

    Styles and Fads from Decades gone by

    Late 80's - I wore bright NEON socks rolled down. All the girls did it at my school, so dumb looking. I also never met a pair of leggins that I didn't love (ugh...) And anyone ever peg their jeans at the bottom? Basically every style from the 80's and early 90's was AWFUL. I'm so glad...

    Help! Forgetful (Unappreciative?) 9 yo daughter

    I have to admit that I was ALWAYS losing jackets when I was a kid. And I wasn't from somewhere that was warm in the winter! I was just a scatterbrain at school. What's sad is I wouldn't even know it was gone for weeks (I had too many jackets to notice). And once I did realize it, I was too...

    Check-in - all the former "Mommies to be"

    When I was breastfeeding Akadia, I used a nipple shield off and on. Sometimes, you just need to use it at the beginning and then you can take it off and keep nursing on that side. I did that and eventually got her to stop using it. Then I quite nursing and moved to pumping - figures! The...

    Check-in - all the former "Mommies to be"

    Carrie - Akadia is eating solids, but I still use the breastmilk as her main meal. I just substitute cereal and either a fruit or veggie for one of her bottles. She LOVES applesauce, pears, and sweet potatoes. She will tolerate peas and bananas, but hates carrots. I'm holding off for a while...

    Shovel Max workout for 29 states by Wed

    I am really not looking forward to another storm. My driveway is over 500 feet long and has 2 hills, one at the top and one at the end. I also have a creek I have to drive over. Right now, the driveway is still covered from the last storm. We had a farmer come and plow, but he couldn't get...

    Check-in - all the former "Mommies to be"

    How are you ladies and your kiddos doing? Akadia is almost 7 months now (depends on if you go by weeks or month to month). She has her first tooth and is working on another. Not crawling yet, but she sits up really good and does lean forward on her hands, just doesn't get up on those knees...

    advice on getting my almost 6 month old to take naps

    Well, you probably don't want advice from me since Akadia is like the worst sleeper ever! When she does nap though, she takes good ones. I have a box fan in her room that I have pointed at a wall and turn it on for white noise. That really helps her to stay asleep. When I do lay her down...

    She's here!

    She is beautiful Winter!!!! Congratulations! Love the name too. :) My supply was really low at first. After 3 weeks of a starving baby, I started supplementing while building my supply with a pump. It took a few months, but I finally got my supply up high enough to not have to give any...

    What things can you NOT live without?

    I'm going to have to look up the alternate ending. I was so sad when he died! Speaking of zombie movies and the Walking Dead show, I still think 28 Days Later is one of the best Zombie movies ever. It starts off very similar to the Walking Dead too.

    Christmas Shots

    Lourdes - I'm right there with you. She was a pretty good sleeper for a while there, but now she is getting up a lot and not wanting to go to bed at night. And she wants mommy ALL the time. Doesn't like being put down for a minute.

    What things can you NOT live without?

    Well, I slept maybe 3 hours last night, so it's more possible that I am confused! ;) I think he did die though cuz' I was really po'd about it.

    What things can you NOT live without?

    Actually, didn't Will get eaten at the end and that girl that he was helping got out with the antidote and found the hidden community?

    Christmas Shots

    Elaine - I'm pretty sure she knew the man behind the beard was her Grandpa. If I took her to a store Santa, she would probably freak out! Thanks everyone! She is a handful to say the least but I love her to pieces.

    Awe, thanks Marianne. I feel special for bringing you out of lurkdom! :) We had an awesome Christmas. I have probably had as much fun playing with her toys as she does. ;)

    Christmas Shots

    I haven't been around as much as I would like lately. And this little squirt is the main reason. Thought I would share a few pics with you gals (for those of you who still remember me!) Akadia was a quick learner and could tear through Christmas wrapping with the best of them...
