Forum: January Playgroup

Emily and Paula did not start Kindy reading. They had no interest so I did not push it. They knew how to read a few words here and there but I did not consider them "readers". I'm really happy with the progress they are making and quite surprised actually. At the beginning of the year both of...

How are the kids doing with losing their teeth? Rianna has not lost any yet, which is very upset about since everyone else seems to be losing them.

Hope your kids are doing well. I think TruBrit, you went to Univ Hosps? My dr transferred from CC to there and I was wondering what you thought of them. Did you like the staff? Were they organized, etc? Thanks!

I hate that this group just died away. Now that our kiddos are going to school, I think this is a time when we really need each other, but there's so few here. Did everyone move to facebook?

Oh my gosh! The longer school goes on the worse it's getting. The girls love school, but they are so overtired when they get home. A is mean, uncooperative and just doesn't want to behave. I is so tired that she is over-sensitive and cries over everything. We've totally changed up our schedule...

Well for anyone who remembers me getting cheated on, it happened again. So...I moved and our divorce was final 2 days ago. I'm sad that my family had to be broken apart, but I'm happy to be away from someone who obviously didn't care about me or the kids the way he should have. Just wanted to...

The girls are loving it. The first two weeks they would tell me every day that they wished they could stay at school longer. Our after school care fell through, so we were researching options. I found an after school program at their school. I like that it's not just day care, but it's...

Except for the fact that I ordered the girls' Packits too late, we're all set. We've got some other lunch totes we'll use until they get here. The girls are very excited!

At what age do kids start taking showers by themselves?

What a crazy summer. My parents finally sold their resort so i was busy helping them close out and move. We have been home about a week and are finally over the jet lag. Next week we are going to Tuscany for a week, wine and beach...what could be better! School will start for Rianna Sept 15th....

Hey girls....life has been crazy around here....Steve's dad passed away on mothers day while he was in Kenya...got him home on Tuesday and left Thursday for Nebraska for the memorial service there. Did I mention I had a horrible virus while I was traveling...worst flight ever! Atleast Rianna ...

I knew this was going to happen sooner or later, but just been reminded we have some frozen embryo's left over from our 2nd IVF, and the clinic wants us to pay expensive storage fees - or else decide what to do with them. Got to call in to see what the options are - but lets just say this has...

Hi, is anyone's little one telling jokes yet or attempting to tell them? It is Jacob's latest thing - and he has us in stitches. He hasn't quite got it down yet - and the context is all wrong - we laugh so hard at how mixed up it all is - that he thinks his 'jokes' are hilarious. One of my...

DH's dad passed away last night....DH is in Kenya and I am trying to get ahold of him.

We lost power with the first line of storms that came through, so I have no idea where they went to after they left us. I was just wondering if all our southern people on here are ok! We're fine and staying in a hotel, and our house is still standing, but it is damaged. We had a metal awning...

Monday night my middle stepson was in a head on car crash. He is doing well from what I can tell, but has severely damaged his left foot. He was in surgery for about 6 hours and will have to have several more to repair all the damage. The car he hit I believe had two passengers who suffered some...

Hey ladies! That weekend in March - the 18, 19, 20 is indeed the opening weekend of March Madness. It is simply the most amazingly fun time in Vegas - if you like college basketball and beer. Ok, the weather is good too and the crowd is fun. With that said, the rates are a bit higher than...

We had to get copies of his shot records and a statement from his pedi that he's ready for kindy. So we went to his 5yo well-check today and here are his stats!!! As a reminder he was 5lb14oz and 19" long. Today he is 48lbs (85th%) and 45 1/2" long...

Is anyone out there?

It seems lately that Jaxon has been saying the funniest things (without realizing it, of course!) Last night when I was brushing his teeth he kept scratching his face. I asked him what was wrong. Jaxon- "I have the snitches." Me- "The snitches?" Jaxon- Yeah, you know, the snitches. OHHHHH, I...

I keep an on-line photo album of the kids and us and update it every few months. I just updated but don't want to post publically. If anyone wants to take a gander at my gang, give me a PM and I'll share the link. :)

The doc called this evening...all is OK! Hormone levels are normal. They said that she is within height limits given me and DH's height! He said monitor her and if anything changes to let him know, but other than that, give it a few more years to see what happens. I am so relieved!

thought I'd share this with you gals. this is what is going on in GA right now. Doubt this bill will pass because it's SO absurd. I couldn't even believe it, when I read it. Still can't. Can't even believe someone would even THINK of anything that mindboggling STUPID. Georgia Legislator Wants To...
