oh, no, Christine! Hand, foot, mouth is rough! Caden had it (the mouth sores) when he was 8 months or so...it was terrible. Hope Jimmy is on the upswing to good health. Thanks for setting up the facebook group. It must be that new computer that made it to easy :). speaking of FB, to top off the...

after seeing all the typos in my post, it's clear I shouldn't type on my phone out in the sun. for the record, I do know how to use you and you're :)

I think this may be our shortest thread ever! I can keep up on facebook pretty easily, but posting to the forums from my phone iskind of a pain. thought i'd check in quick while laying on the deck getting some quick sun before Reese wakes. I hope to finally ski today, but it's going to be ice...

do any of you have a veggie dip recipe you like that uses yogurt?

Hey everyone! Is it Monday?? My days are so messed up from working weird days. Today is my last day of work and then I'm off until next Monday. Packing tomorrow and then leaving on Wednesday for the lake. It's about a 3 hr drive. We bought a dvd player in case Caden breaks down at the 2hr mark...

clearly those flippin' chocolate chips put my brain in a fog. In the barley recipe, I meant to say that I want to convert it from stovetop to OVEN.

It looks like it might be my turn to talk to myself :). 1) I just ate 1/4 bag of chocolate chips. No lie. I enjoyed the 12 hrs of having a flattish stomach. Ok, now that that is off my chest... 2) Does anyone know how I might convert this recipe to cook in the stove? I'm in charge of...

whew...they weren't burning. Here's the recipe in case anyone is interested. I call them Caden's Cookies...but I eat almost as many as he does :). It's not a traditional cookie, but Caden and I think they're pretty good! 4 very ripe bananas, smashed 1/2 c unsweetened applesauce 1-2T melted...

Melanie-I hope something comes through at the pharmacy. That would be great if you could pick up your extra hours close to home. Good luck with the kiddos for a couple days. You'll do great because you are awesome at what you do! We vacation at Lake Okoboji, which is in NW IA. I know, most MN...

Good morning ladies Melanie-I'm glad you are allowing yourself to go to bed a bit earlier. I've been going to bed early since Caden was born almost 2 years ago! Sleep makes such a huge difference. Hope you get back to your normal, energetic self. Allison-fun weekend away! THat's great you...

Jen-awesome job with the insanity! About your posts...they just make me want to put my phone/computer down and do an insanity workout! Your passion for the workouts shines through...or maybe it's a layer of sweat making your posts shine. Either way.. Priscilia-that's awesome you'll be able to...

forgot to ask...Melanie and Christine (since you have boys)-Caden has always had problems with leaking his diapers (up the front). I've tried Huggies (including overnights), Pampers, Luvs, and he still leaks at night if he drinks too much. Now that he is wearing shorts and a t-shirt pjs, he...

Hey ladies! I've been a bit MIA lately...visiting in-laws and my phone has a tough time with connection in "the sticks :) Melanie-this is about as far 'up north' as I get (princeton...st. cloud area). That would be so much fun garage saling together. It's funny being in the same state yet SO far...

For the stability ball, I would sit on it holding the baby and just bounce. Each of my babies preferred a different hold. The bounce was more rhythmic than standing and bouncing. It really relaxed them and put them to sleep far quicker than rocking or anything else. Since you already have a...

melanie-so sorry! poor timing on my part talking about $$. have the kids tonight while dh plays softball and has his guys night. hope to get the kiddos sleeping early so I can check back later

christine-does a 529 offer any benefit over contributing to my retirement plan at work? that is also pretax and I invest in funds and bonds. i'l look into the tax free thing at my bank...we have too much sitting in there anyway.....over a year's worth of exp i'd say

Hey everyone. Wow, what a quiet week! I'm feeling much better, so I hope to be around a bit more. We've had such a sick house the last 1 1/2 weeks. Caden, DH, and I have all been sick. Please, please let the sick season be done! Melanie-so sorry to hear about your dad. I hope you can get the...
