My dd is eight and I can't help but notice so many changes are happening for her this year. She's become more observant of the people around her, her physical appearance, her behavior, etc.... I can't believe that in less than...

infinitelyprosperous That's funny:) Our family still acts like that when we go back home to visit and we have three kids, lol. One would think we would be capable of acting reasonable, but they still treat us like we're five:)

How will you be celebrating Earth Day this year. In case you're not sure when that is, it's Tuesday, April 22, 2008. There were many activities relating to Earth Day this weekend, and there will be more next weekend as well (in...

infinitelyprosperous Last year we went to a few celebrations and festivals, but we've been too busy this year. I just got my pack-n-totes and I have some more chico bags on the way. We set up different recycling cans in the kitchen. I guess the best way to put it is that we're...

My ds had his first t-ball game today and it was the strangest thing I've ever seen. It's been a few years since my dd was in t-ball, but we lived in a different part of the country. Perhaps it's the laidback nature of where we...

infinitelyprosperous My dd was an only child for four and a half years and she was a very sore loser when she started preschool. It was never our intention for her to be that way, but things just became what they were and since she was our first and only, we didn't realize some of...

infinitelyprosperous I think it's a great idea to help them get a lesson out of losing. I know with my dd I always try to point out how different situations could have been handled other ways and I think it works the same with games.

infinitelyprosperous The internet. The tv has no way to reach out and talk to me, lol. There's no real interaction. I can't search for endless information. I hardly ever watch tv now. Most things on tv can be found online anyway.

infinitelyprosperous Ugh! Undercooked food is always fun. It might not have been so bad cooked completely though. I can't say I've ever tried a breakfast flan before.

Do you do a little throughout the week (besides straightening up here and there) like www.flylady.net or do you have a marathon cleaning day where the whole family pitches in? I used to do the Flylady system and IT WAS GREAT!!!...

infinitelyprosperous We do a little bit of both here. I almost always do a bit here and there throughout the week, but then we still need the "marathon" on the weekend. It would be nice if someone other than me actually picked up after themselves, lol.

infinitelyprosperous I'm guilty of spending quite a bit on our cloth diapers, but I've never spent more than $16 on a diaper and most of our dipes are prefolds. I just love how classic they look, lol. When my youngest ds outgrew his infant and moved into premium I recovered 75% of...

infinitelyprosperous This is a major pet peeve of mine. I understand that rowdy children can be a distraction, but I think safety here is more important. I abhor drivers who don't pay attention to driving.

infinitelyprosperous I don't know that this is really all that uncommon in the U.S. either. I think it just depends on where you are at. I try to mind my own family, but that hasn't stopped other relatives from acting entitled if you kwim.
