I recently taught my son how

Dani_Z — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 15:40:46 -0500

I recently taught my son how to drink form a sippy cup and boy, was it a mess! Mealtime has become one of my favorite parts of the day because of all the adorable faces my son makes. He uses this time to mimic me and my manorisms. I tilt my head to one side as I am feeding him. He will not do this at the same time, but later so I can truly observe how cute he is.

This was an adorable story & I look forward to my son sharing in a similar moment.

Your experience is not what

sandycrochet — Mon, 18 May 2009 20:35:25 -0500

Your experience is not what I've seen, heard, or been apart of. I'm now grandmother age; though not yet a grandmother. I've expereinced mothers who do not plan their travel time around nap, bring nothing to entertain the baby/child and really don't seem to understand how their sweet little one has everyone on the plane wanting a stiff drink because they have a headache; or irritated because they couldn't work for the noise. Or...the mothers that change a dirty diaper on their lap when seating in the middle seat and really think thats ok. It's not. I am a mother, I love children; but adults to have the right of peaceful, restful, or work filled travel.

I would say you're very lucky, and also very tuned into what works for your child, and put that need above conveniant of time travel for yourself or getting a cheaper ticket come hell or high water.

I hope your husband loosens up a bit with allowing others to babysit. Children need to be exposed to people who are non family. Sometimes, they do better with others in fact.

Interesting read

traveling with babies/toddlers

My son was a big baby, so even for his first plane flight at 9 months, we had to have a seat for him. Which turned out to be a blessing, because we learned that he had the same reaction to the car seat on the plane as he did in the car -- he nearly always fell asleep immediately.

That worked until; about 2.5 or 3. That's when we got the portable DVD player, which was our constant travel companion until he was in elementary school. Now we still bring it occasionally, but he's just as happy with his Nintendo DS and a few magazines.

Thanks!

She's a doll. Having a girl is great after the last 4 years of just boys.

It's easy to solve this for future posts. Just click the words input format, right below the box where you enter text and select FULL HTML. That will allow the video to work. :-)

Tokara's official Frosting Couture website

Chris--MomathonBlog.com — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 13:33:15 -0500

I forgot to mention in my original post that Tokara has a new website up and running. It is basically the same as her Etsy store. However the graphics at her new website are extra fabulous.

Here is the link:

Frosting Couture - Every girl needs a bit of frosting!

I love them too

Chris--MomathonBlog.com — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 09:40:56 -0500

The artist is a great gal from Minneapolis, my hometown. Tokara went from an office worker to an up-and-coming designer in just over a year. (I'm hoping my Etsy store will turn into a success too.)

Buy handmade :-)

Huggies

Cmarquis — Fri, 20 Mar 2009 10:26:15 -0500

I myself used Huggies from the time my children were baby's. I tried other brands and they never seemed to work as good. Now my grand baby uses them. The overnight Huggies was a life saver for me. My name is Cmarquis and my husband and I have three children togither. I own Clar's Baby Baskets at www.clarsbabybaskets.com and finding time with three children and one grand child is very uncommen. It is a good day when I can check emails. But I would not have it any other way.

Tried em all, Luvs are the best

TheFeministBreeder — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 15:05:07 -0600

We're cloth diapering now, but we used Luvs for years. We tried everything on the market, and Luvs were hands-down the best disposable diaper out there. No blowouts or leaks, no crystals coming off onto baby's skin, and no falling apart.

Like the commercial says "Live, Learn, and then get Luvs."

It's ok...

She's probably thinking the same thing about you (I mean as far as being beautiful) and she probably is jealous of your beautiful family! ;o)
