My big girl plays in the creative mode only and not with other people. I didn't even know you can play with other people. She enjoys creating a little world all her own (which includes a bunch of Hello Kitty's!).

Though we pretty much follow the ps schedule, we start school a week early and it's August 26th this year.

Put your alarm clock on the other side of the room! You will have to get up to turn it off. Then stay up and jump in the shower right away.

My son is in first grade and he has enjoyed watching Liberty Kids on Netflix.
Both girls also enjoy Liberty's Kids!

I don't understand how you could know something like that and still ask them to babysit your kids. It shows mind-blowingly poor judgment.
I feel sick just thinking about such a thing.
No association AT ALL with this person and their spouse. None.

I have NEVER leave the oven on unless I'm preheating and baking. My parent's house burned down (electrical fire) so I grew up always turning everything off especially when we leave.

When my girls were two, they LOVED using craft foam and sticking it onto construction paper. You can get a (I think) 500 piece bucket from Walmart for around $5-$6. I would give them a handful and let them stick away! I would also ask them which letter/number they are sticking and they would tell me.

Both girls stopped napping around age 2ish. They sleep maybe 7-9 hours a night (as my big girl said when she was 3 "I can't turn my brain off!") and are highly active all day long. We do have a one hour quiet time most days when they play or read in their rooms. We had our oldest unofficially tested by the University and she tested HG. Small girl is untested.
My PG dad was a terrible sleeper as in he didn't sleep much.

Yes, just start spelling. Both of my little were done before official 1st grade age.
Same here...and same advice!

My big girl has been involved in a "non-animal" 4H group for 2 years now as a Cloverbud. They do cooking projects, a craft and a game each meeting. They show their crafts and/or cooking projects at the fairs. You should google 4H for your area and contact the representative and ask for a non-animal group in your area.

My parents have lived in the same house for over 45ish years.

We have no intentions of going gluten free. The only reason I would go GF is if someone develops an allergy to gluten.

We found out before birth. To us, finding out the baby's gender is a surprise anytime (birth or at the ultrasound). I am a planner and wanted to set up the nursery and buy clothing, etc for the correct gender. Not neutral colors. So for planning/practical reasons, we found out ahead of time.

Update - I gave her some pain relief and Grandma held her and I did it. When I pulled the backing, the earring pulled into her ear so I had to push it out. Blood gushed so after getting a towel from inside (we were outside), my mom told me to go back inside because I thought I was going to pass out. I made it to the hallway...then passed out! I think I was half in and out because I started to dream then heard my small girl crying - she had come in and saw me on the floor and panicked - that's when I realized I was on the floor! Anyhoo, it's done and big girl recovered fast and was playing about 10 minutes later. I'm bummed the earring is out and not going back in but I also feel terrible putting through that unnecessary pain!
Thanks again for the ideas!!

DH's truck is manual and my van is not. I can drive one but not well at all (don't even get me close to a hill!!!) and I think it is a good skill to have.
-
Thanks, I didn't think of Advil. I'll do that, ice and pull. Thanks!

DD7 got her ears pierced about a month ago. A couple of days ago, she thought the one earring stud was falling out and pushed it together. This morning, I noticed it was red then noticed the earring stud was pushed really far into the ear! Like it is embedded into her ear. She completely freaked out when I touched it. I am looking for some ideas on how to pull it out. I'm freezing some water right now to ice it first. But it's a starter stud so it's harder to pull the backing out. Any ideas for the easiest way to pull the backing out? She tried and could not pull it out. I am going to have her try again after icing because she seems to not freak so much if she is doing it.
I also feel horrible that we had her pierce her ears...I cried.

I typically call it standard. But manual and stick are also common here.

Clearly I don't think your ILs should judge you on what your house looks like. Personally, I like to keep a very clean house and am always on the move making sure it stays that way (and this cuts out "formal" exercise cause it keeps me in great shape!). While I am working in the kitchen, I clean as I go and we do not have a dishwasher.
-
Give me some ice cream! I prefer hot because I'm always cold unless it IS super hot.

I can wear chunky sandals with platform heels but I can not wear shoes with those spikey heels. I tried once and spent the evening thinking "heel, toe, heel, toe" so I could walk. Then when we were leaving the event, I stumbled down the steps of the banquet hall and everyone outside got a good laugh because they thought I was the drunk girl. (I was solely drinking diet Coke the entire night!)

If it is Sunday, I would specifically say "this coming Wednesday" if I meant in three days.

I wear just a little make-up. I don't know how to put eye liner on! lol
When I'm tanned in the summer - powder and lip gloss.
When I'm white in the winter - some liquid foundation, a touch of powder, blush and lip gloss.
That's all. Today, I have on powder and chap stick.
Mascara comes in all sorts of colors. I would try to find a subtle color close to your hair color.
