  • Happy Friday!! Poor Scarlett hasn't been feeling well and sleeping terribly. Good thing we have only a few plans this weekend so hopefully can catch up on sleep and spending time together.

    @rondokye I know exactly what you mean about the biting. Both of my girls were biters and the bitee several times and it was much worse having the biter. 

    @amparo1981 Good luck!

  • Has anyone had success "teaching" their kid to go down drowsy but awake, or is it one of those things they have to start doing on their own?

    Also has anyone gotten LO over a daddy strike? I thought it was a fluke but it has been going on all summer. C loves to play with daddy, more than me, but won't let him near at bedtime or MOTN.

    We have 6 weeks or less and this sleep situation is gonna make me have a panic attack.

    @byjove3 We did just move and that's when we found out that a queen won't fit up our stairs; just the full. Well this full-size mattress is like 15 years old and dips in the middle. It sucks. Bad. 

    But our bedroom is pretty small--Capitol Hill rowhouse. We also downsized on this move to save more to buy a place next year. 

    I had wanted to wait to buy a new bed until we moved, but I'm not sure if DH can wait that long.

    I'm actually going to measure and see what a double twin (pseudo-king) would mean in terms of space. 
    As a quick fix, you can put a regular pillow under the middle of your mattress. My single-lady full size mattress lasted ages that way.

    So, for the BTDT people out there, are our LO's going to keep hats on this winter?

    Si tries to rip hats off, but as soon as he figures out it's tied on he leaves it alone. So I'd suggest a hat that ties or Velcro's under the chin. Better then a bunch of hats you can't use.

    @rondokye I feel the same way regarding my sweet baby who loves to bite. I almost feel relieved when he isn't the one biting, and then I feel bad. But even if E does bite at DC, they'll still love her. Toddlers just gonna toddler and that includes biting. Things I never thought I'd say that I have now said, "say bye bye to the vacuum. I promise it will still be here when you get home." I think we might be buying a toy vacuum this weekend.
    Luke has suddenly fallen in love with the vacuum too. It's so weird. He used to be terrified of it - he would have a meltdown every time I turned it on. Now he has a meltdown when I put it back in the closet. 

    He is also a biter :( Mostly mom. What does DC do in response to biting? I've been putting him down whenever he bites but Idk if it's doing any good. He just cries.

    This kid may not have a lot of bowel, but he has plenty of guts!

    We are impatiently awaiting the day we can say goodbye to his girlfriend Ivy for good.

    They tell him no biting. Really, there isn't much you can do at this age, according to pretty much everything I've read and seen. I would say no biting and put him down. Occasionally, they'll say no biting and put him in his pack and play for a minute. Or they'll just pick him up and remove him from the situation for a minute or two. But maybe he bites so that he gets removed from the situation. It's so hard to know.

  • @haddocky‌ get him a hat with the strap that snaps under his chin- they're harder to get off!
  • s/o photos, I haven't seen a groupon for JCP portraits in forever. I'm hoping that they still offer them.
