girlymom Well, I don't have any kids of my own that old yet, but my brother is 16 years younger than me, so he is like a son to me also. He did get a girl pregnant when he was 16 (he still is 16) and it is pretty hard. He doesn't have a job and he has not been a very...

girlymom I miss the OC so much! They replay it on the soap channel here, though, so every once in a while I do get to see it. At the end I just loved Taylor. She was so cool!

I swear, everytime I go to the grocery store or somewhere else where's there's alot of mom's with kids, I always see one mom who is giving her toddler soda or has put soda in her baby's bottle. This annoys the hell out of me!...

girlymom I hate when people put pop in baby cups or bottles. The only time my girls have pop is when we are out to eat and they want a sip of mine or now my 3 year old will get a sprite once in a blue moon at McD's. But my toddler, no way!!!

I am a stay home mom. My husband and I decided it was financially easier on us. What I mean is why should I work only to take 90% of my paycheck and give it to a daycare center and only have enough money left to put gas in my...

girlymom I finally got to stay home with my 3 girls in March of 2006. I was in the same situation as you. I really wasn't making any money by working outside the home. I would much rather be home raising my kids than letting someone else do it.

girlymom I don't drink coffee, but I have tried. I just cannot get over the taste! I've put all kinds of sweetener, flavors, creamers in it, but still I don't like it. I wish I did. I can drink pop/soda any time of the day though, so I get my caffeine that way if I...

What time is a reasonable time for kids to go to bed? I have a 7 year old daughter who goes to bed every night at 9PM and gets plenty of sleep since she gets up at 8AM. Friends tell me that this is too late of a bedtime for her...

girlymom I think 9pm is just fine. I have a 9 year old and that has been her bedtime for about 3 years now. My youngest two, 3 years and 1 year, go to bed at 8pm. If I sent my 9 year old to bed at 8pm she would never go to sleep!

Do you go through streaks where you play for hours on end and then other times when you hardly touch the game until months later? Can you pick up with the family you had before while you were addicted or do you have to start...

girlymom I am exactly like that! I love the sims and when I play, I am addicted, but then, I don't feel like playing at all. I usually pick up with an old family though because when I do get to play, I don't have time to set up everything again, the family, the...

girlymom Hey there! I know that there are babysitting websites online that you can register for, I don't know the names off hand, you could search them. You could also look in the newspaper for people that are looking for sitters. Hope that helps!

girlymom I love House too! I don't know what it is, but is just so attractive. The way he acts seems to make him that way for some strange reason. It's like he's one of those untouchable type of people that you're attracted to because you want to break down his...
