SmartNow

There are lots of doctors, fitness trainers, even beauty experts discussing what one can expect. Have a read of The Female Brain...we just reviewed it. Here's the link of two of the video reviews: http://www.smartnow.com/page/4913

I loved the book it explained a lot. Let me know what you think of SmartNow. As of this Friday we are 3 months old! and we are growing quickly. We will add a social network and other cool features in the next 6 months.

Warmly,

Hi Julie!

Hi Julie! Thanks for visiting my blog. As you can tell, I am very conservative; but that doesn't mean we can't appreciate each other. I visited SmartNow.com this morning--just for a few minutes, because i have to run out the door. It looks very impressive, and I will have to spend some more time there. We perimenopausal women have a lot to share, I think...it would be nice to read about how other women are dealing with the physical and mental changes that we are undergoing. (My husband is sort of bewildered.)

Have a good day!

Thanks for the note.

She'll say, "What did you do to your hair?" in that CERTAIN tone of voice. Or "That's interesting. Where did you buy that?" "You should wear a little more make-up."

I just laugh. Sometimes, she's right and other times, she's wrong. I'm glad she's still here to carp. But I congratulate you for your sartorial rebellion. I saw a pair of silver and purple pumps the other day....

But Im sorry that I dont have any answers for you, I'm in the same boat as you I've tried everything I wish I had an answer or reemendy on what would help or stop this behavior, I dont know if its just that shes too lazy to go or shes to occupied whith her playing? I wish you luck your not alone.

ROFL!! That's so true. And the more I disobey, the longer it sulks. I did have a happy moment when I put an Austrailian man's voice on Tom tom. I would follow Hugh Jackson to the ends of the earth, so I guess I can follow Tom Tom around in circles, right?

Easily Confused

I have noticed with mine that if I make a different decision and turn right when it wants me to take a left. It goes very quiet for a bit. It tells me it is recalculating, but I know the truth. It's just sulking................

thanks

Teething

As caregiver to my 14 month old granddaughter, I'm being reminded of the teething woes. Seems to me that you've tried almost everything. So I wish you patience and strength...

My Grandma once told me that years ago they used whiskey to combat the pain of teething... Being a bit of a wimp, I mixed it with Coke before I drank it! ;)

Now that's something I haven't thought of - I'll try it!

Frozen orange wedges?

AdrianaWA — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 10:25:13 -0500

Sorry to hear about the teething woes! Along the same lines as the frozen washcloth, how about frozen orange wedges?

thanks for the idea!

MomToBeDepot — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 21:04:50 -0500

thanks for the suggestion - I'll try it!!

This might be lame...

Maybe you could try freezing a wet wash cloth, then let kiddo chew on it?

I've blocked most of the miserable toddler memories from my brain, but when I read your post it came to mind. Hope you find something!
