  1. Bonna Luca Mosaic Pasta Plate I think this is it. I saw it on Amazon as well, but not in stock. Not sure about the site this is on for ordering and such though. Hope that helps the search though!
  2. I'd suggest maybe looking at minivans that have a rear seat that either fully lay down or they have some that portions can as well. Minivans seem to be a better bang for your back in comparison to SUVs if you're not needing towing capability. Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna are likely the most popular. The cheaper option would be a Chrysler Town and Country or Pacifica if you're avoiding Kias overall.
  3. Looking at my current HB now, it doesn't use k-cups just a small refillable one for single mugs, etc. But like @TexasProud said, with a k-cup machine you can buy a reusable container to put your own ground coffee in. Ninja Coffee Maker This is the one I have on my wishlist at the moment.
  4. I like my hybrid one that you can make a full pot, which I normally do, or use a k-cup on the other side. I have a Hamilton Beach one at the moment, but have been eyeing a Ninja for the next one.
  5. And it looked like the current temp was below freezing. So the idea of layers is good. Plus if you live in a place like Florida, they probably don't have the gear to be out in below freezing weather for a longer time? Editing to add: 53 was the high so it might have potentially been colder than the 28 degrees in the corner as well
  6. We use MetLife Take Along Dental for our family. I'd recommend, though, that if you have a regular dentist you see that you talk to their insurance person and see who they recommend. That's how we ended up on that plan.
  7. https://www.careerexplorer.com/ This one maybe? I saw it referred to as the Sokanu Career/Personality Test
  8. I understand feeling guilt. I'm anxious generally and take on guilt that's unnecessary. I hope you find the balance you need between feeling like you are accomplishing what you'd like and resting enough. It's tough with young kids and pregnancy. If you do feel like you're abnormally tired though, it might be worth bringing up with your doctor next time you visit. It could be that you need some supplemental nutrients. I pray that you'll feel more freedom and that you'll realize the important work you are doing even at rest. Best of luck to you and your family!
  9. There are several things I want to say right off after reading this. The first being that you are doing real work. Your body is helping another whole person to grow. It's exhausting! And this being the fourth one, I'm sure the other kids need some care as well. Even if they are watching a bit more, you are still caring for them. Making sure they are safe, clean, and nourished. I also despise the guilt associated with Proverbs 31, and I say that as a Christian. From what I've heard, it's not a "real" woman but a picture of what to look for, for one. And also she seems to run her household with multiple layers of servants of some sort. I might be wrong, but I'm guessing you don't have a full staff looking over your household affairs... Please be gentle with yourself. Rest when you can from the hard work you are doing when you are up and the work you're even doing while resting(you know, GROWING a person!) As a Christian, your worth is not found in the work you do. Love on your family as well as you are able and also extend that kindness to yourself.
  10. Not knowing his particular bent, would he like something like a Perplexus? Perplexus Rookie It's interactive but all contained. My kids have really enjoyed them over the years, but you'll know better whether he'd enjoy it or it would just be frustrating. Good luck!
  11. What about including something like this? Lego Deep Sea Creatures Lego Fish Tank There are a few smaller sets like the first and the second is a bit pricier but they go with the theme!
  12. I'd also look into statistics. I know people with math degrees who work in statistics heavy jobs or it could be that he could pursue that directly. When I took both math and statistics in college, a lot of the classes were listed under both majors. So Math 511 was also listed as STAT 511.
  13. And if going for DEET, which from what I understand is the most effective bug repellant overall, the travel clinic we went to said to aim for around 30% or so. Higher percentages didn't show any greater effectiveness and it's just more likely to bother your skin.
  14. They don't make me sleepy, but I'm not a good judge on that. I can take Benadryl in the middle of the day. I do usually take it routinely at night though with melatonin and some 5HTP. On bad days when I feel the anxiety rising though, I'll take one more during that time.
