Ask a Baby Blogger: Should I Wake My Baby to Breastfeed? - Blog Entry

25 Jan 2007 10:17 PM

It's wonderful that our bodies adjust to whatever schedule the baby is on. I fed my last three on a fixed schedule from birth (the same one they were on in the nursery). It worked very well, for the whole family. The babies were very healthy, I didn't leak, and we were able to plan our days knowing when the baby would be hungry. For us, it was a much better experience than feeding on demand (which we did with the first one).

Is It Okay For Kids To Call Their Parents By Their First Name? - Blog Entry

My children are required to put a title in front of the name of anyone more than five years older than they are, if they are over 18. We have a young lady in our Latin class that they need to address as Miss Grace even though she is a student. It's a simple matter of respect for one's elders.

Thanks, Tristi! Can I add a few? Conan the Barbarian (more of Ahnold than we'd ever want to see), The Weathman and Glengary Glenross (both of which were brilliantly acted, but had no redeeming value).

Nothing tastes as good as thin feels.

I have a LOOOONG way to get to thin, but it's good motivation for me.

I bring raw oatmeal and sunflower seeds. The seeds provide quick energy. Yeah, sounds gross, but you get used to the oatmeal and it really fills you up. Neigggghhhh!

I can't imagine doing that! If there's Rocky Road or Reese's Peanut Butter Cups in the house, they're gone. I have 40+ years of experience backing that up ;-). Glad that he has that kind of self-control. I need to do just the opposite -- keep it away!

What a great idea! So often we forget to give thanks for the little things in life. Can you give me an example of what you've written for one of the days?
