A place where we can go and vent about our days!
I've used a nailpolish on my daughter when she used to suck her thumb. It's called Mavala Stop and helped my daughter to stop sucking her thumb, but she also bit her nails too. I bought this product on Amazon.com and it only cost me about 4 bucks....

My son just turned 2 in October and has been biting his nails for months on end now. Fingers and toes. He bites the so short they bleed. I can not get him to stop. I've tried that nasty stuff they sell at the drugstore, it's like nail polish that ...
Hi everyone. I'm new here to this group and just wanted to quickly introduce myself. I'm Chris and am a S.A.H.M of a 17 month old. It's been a blast being home with her, although relying on one income has been a challenge. A part of me can't wait ...
A place where we can go and vent about our days!
Hi! I'm Maya, and I'm a SAHM to a 9 month old who just started crawling and standing. He keeps me pretty busy! Most days I love being at home with him, but I also miss working. I wish I could find a good part-time job from home.

2:30 am is WAY too early!!!
Well, I have to share my story about this morning!! I woke up at 5:00am to go to the "little ladies room" and I noticed that my oldest daughter was in the living room. I went in and I saw her on the floor with her bum sticking up in the air just like a baby does! And she was ( well, looked like) asleep!! So I picked her up and told her it was too early and she MUST go back to bed. But she whined and cried saying she didn't want to!! So I let her go back to watching t.v!! My thoughts are you can'… Continue

I'm a proud Mommy tonight!!
Well,I took off Justin's diaper and he said "pee pee so I let him in the bathroom. He sat on the potty. After a couple of minutes he PEED!! I can not believe it!!! I'm sooo excited! Maybe he's really ready now! Wow! I gave him stickers to put on his own piece of bristol board that I taped to the bathroom door! I made a huge deal about it. And he looked pretty pleased with himself! I am not going to force the issue as he just turned two last week! well, I must say I'm soo proud of my baby!!

It's good to be home!!!
I just go home from spending a long night at the childrens Hospital with Justin!! He was up through the night on Saturday being fussy. I noticed that his rib cage was sinking in and that he was having trubble breathing. We took him into the Hospital early Sunday morning! And have been their since!They checked his oxygen level and it was down a bit. It was 94 and it should be 99 or 100. They started to give him five puffs of salbutamol (blue puffer as I know it) every ten minutes or so plus two o… Continue

Oh. how my kids are growing up!!
So, today Hannah's new bed arrived. And Justin has gotten her toddler bed.I was not sure how the transition of both parties would go down. Hannah seemed ok as she is older and will be four in November. I think she was more excited than anything and I think it made her feel like a big girl. Well, Justin (be two in September) on the other hand did not know what to think. I put him to bed (using the Nanny technique) and he kept coming out. We did this for about an hour. Mind you he was soo good. I… Continue

Its me..Marie said… - How cool that you were able to do some kid-less shopping... ahhhhh one can only dream! lol! I guess that would've been a good idea; the plastic decorations/ornaments... hmmmm why didn't that ever pop into my head? That's great that you're tree is at least out of the box.. that's the biggest step then everything else is pretty easy or at least less complicated. Hope you post some pics of it once it's done, would love to see it! Hope you have a fabulous weekend!

- Aww, thank you for the compliment on the page! No, we're not even close to being ready for Christmas! We still need to do the decorations outside the house and the tree. I have to find it in the garage, luckily we bought one that already has the lights on it so when I put it together, we just have to throw on the decorations. Does Hannah break any still? Dylan breaks something every year so I have to be very careful with him! lol. How about you guys? Are you ready for the holidays?

- Hi Shawna! Sorry I haven't been in touch, I've been a bit busy since my little guy went on track brake and it seems as though my older one has an extra day off every week from school on "teacher development day" so I've been busy with them. Oscar, our 16 yr old has his driver's permit too and so we've been taking him out for drives to make sure he gets his hours in, he should have his license by February so it's really exciting! Geesh they grow up soooooo fast! How is everything with you? How are the kids? How was your Halloween?
