    when our almost 3 year old son starts to have a tantrum or becomes whinny because he is not getting his way we walk him to his room and tell him he just needs to stay in there until he "feels better". sometimes he goes in and cries for awhile and plays with his toys before coming back out and...

    Wow! congrats on the trey. the first year or so will be fun to say the least but having 3 to play together or fight with each other will be a blast. Our daughter is only 7 months old but to watch her play and interact with her 3 year old brother is wonderful. She already knows how to mess with...

We just moved from Germany back to the U.S. and spent the first two months in an extended stay hotel. We have been in our home now just under 2 weeks . So that is...

    DH to me is all about finding that perfect balance between fast enough vs. out of control and trusting that the bike is going to take care of you. Not enough speed over roots or rocks doesn't allow the suspension to operate the way its intended and of course to fast and you lose control. There...

    While it can be difficult to achieve children often at that age just want to be involved in what their parents are doing. At that age I would always let my son watch or "help" me with whatever I was doing. He would sit up in his bumbo while I made dinner or worked on things around the house. I...

    We have son that this almost 2 and a half years old. He sounds much like your son at that age, he only plays on the big kid stuff at the playground, up and down steps on his own, can climb up just about anything. He also didn't talk much at all until he was just past 2 years old and then it was...

    When our son was born he also would fall right asleep with the first few drinks of milk. Our midwife suggested that we strip him down to just his diaper and try feedings in cooler parts of the house as not to make it so easy to fall right back asleep. It worked well for us. I feel your pain...

    When our daughter was born last month I would send family a few pictures and nicely reminded them not to post anything to Facebook. With our first child we were not as lucky either and more than once I had to remind family that if we wanted pictures of him posted we would have done it already.

    Good Luck! They told my wife for about 10 weeks that our daughter was measuring small, 11 percentile and she had low fluid. We did a scheduled C-section a few days after the due date and she came out weighing 7lbs perfectly healthy!

    I love hearing some of these stories and many ring true for myself. I often fall asleep watching movies or shows that my wife wants to watch. However for whatever reason this bothers her and she would continually ask me if I am sleeping until I awake up and reply to her. This does not happen to...

    Nesting is real and its a bitch! With our first child my wife was very laid back at the beginning and didn't want to do to much for the baby room. She just wanted a crib and a few extra things added to our spare room. I offered to paint or do whatever and she said over and over we didn't need to...

    People who complain about having so much snow to shovel. You had a huge warning that it was going to snow all night and you just sit there in your Pjs drinking Hot Coco watching it pile up past the window. Just man up and go out once an hour shovel that shit real fast until its over. Then sleep...
