Watching Baby Einstein Does Not an Einstein Make - Blog Entry07 Aug 2007 11:05 AM Directv has followed suit with the whole Baby Einstein thing with the Baby's First TV that is marketed to parents of babies! It's so annoying when I see the commercials lauding this channel as so educational and beneficial for babies. Definietly no television before age 2. Mine haven't had any interest before that age anyway. They pay no attention to the TV, thank goodness! Good blog, Val. The Circumcision Debate - Blog Entry23 Jul 2007 05:36 AM Thanks Jo.

Dealing with Nasty Comments - Blog Entry11 May 2007 08:11 AM I got that comment with my first daughter. One person would tell me I looked big and then the next day, someone would say I looked small! My midwife told me that when she was pregnant and people would ask her when she was due, she'd give them a date nine months in the future. She laughed at the look on their faces! That was one of my favorite come back lines for size, but I just remembered it now! Disney World: What's the Best Time of Year to Go? - Blog Entry10 May 2007 11:58 AM I lived in Florida for 12 years and have been to Disney in every season. Late fall is nice, after Hurricane season and when temperatures have dropped. Winter is lovely, if you like sweater weather and sunny skies. Early spring is nice too, before the oppressive heat sets in. All that said, we are going in early June. Crazy, I know, but that's when the kids get out of school! Great blog, Heather! |
