A bilibo is a fun idea.  I may do that.  Fancy edge scissors are another thing we don't have.  Those with colorful paper and a glue stick would be a great "school box" for her.  Thank you :)

I have 3 girls, 6yrs, 3yrs, and 2months.  The 6 and 3 year old are great friends and play together plenty.  We have tons of play kitchen things, silks, dolls, doll house, bike/scooter, blocks/magnatiles, a swing set, and so...

Loving the confessions thread here.  My confession is that after very very minimal research, I bought a Boba from amazon that arrived today.  When DD1 was a baby/toddler, I was very active in our local babywearing group, and...

Birth control:  I have PCOS.  All 3 of my kids were conceived with clomid.  My cycles are typically long, irregular, and annovulatory, and as a result charting really stresses me out.  I really don't want to...

DH's first week back at work just ended.  It's been a rough week, but I overall felt like it was going well and I was doing ok.  Now he's got a stomach bug   I'm trying desperately not to panic here

Co-sleeping - I use blankets, but angle them so they stay under DD3's armpits.  We switch sides nursing at night, so DD3 sleeps on whatever side she fell asleep nursing last, sometimes on the side, sometimes in the middle of me...
