They are FINE!! We have our own eggs, and we don't even wash them unless they are really dirty, and then not until right before we crack them.
Us, too.

Her concerns could be both real and sweet, but the bottom line is, it's nobody else's business. She is, essentially, asking about your sex life. How did we get to such a point in our society that the asking of such intimate questions is considered acceptable???
-
All of this advice is great! Bottom line-- have a plan, even if your day doesn't ever look like the plan.
-
Thanks everyone! Lots to choose from.

And gel? And spray???

Wow, what a difference a year makes! My bridesmaids wore teal dress in 1990, I guess it was big that year.
Oh yes. My dh was in a wedding in 1994 in which the bridesmaids wore teal (aka "seafoam") and peach dresses and the groomsmen wore white tuxes with cummerbunds and ties that matched the girls' dresses. GAG. And my poor dh. This is him. Can you imagine him in a white tux??? He looked like a marshmallow :D But a very handsome marshmallow...

Erica- where are you? Just curious. Our prices have increased like the others, so maybe we all need to move near you :)
-
Oh, yeah-- keep that cream and whip it up! YUM!

It's my understanding that it's illegal to put things in peoples' mailboxes. Am I right, hivemind?
But you could certainly leave them on the doorstep :)

If you've read Swallows and Amazons, have you read Peter Duck; that was our favourite from the series.
That's quite an age spread... lessee
an Arthurian cycle: Pyle, Sutcliff, TH White
L.M. Boston's Green Knowe series
Terry Pratchett's discworld for kids (or Johnny triology or Wee Free Men)
Joan Aikin's Wolves of Willoughby Chase series
if your library has it, Helen Cresswell's Bagthorpe Saga (starts with Ordinary Jack)
LOL! We hated Peter Duck!

Anything by Kate DiCamillo! We recently read The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane. I was hanging on every word just as much as dd was. :001_smile: We couldn't stop when the chapters ended.
Oh yes! We just read this, too, and all of our kiddos who were listening loved it. They were 13yos, 10yos, 8yod, 7yod, 4yod.

Now why in the world would they remake the 1980 Room With a View??? Good grief. It's perfect.
I'd heard about the BBC version but you all seem to think it's not good, so I'm not going to bother :D

I love this idea!! Thanks for sharing. My children are forever picking up perfectly clean clothes off the floor that never made in into their drawers and throwing them back in the hamper.:banghead:

Labeled baskets are our MO, too. That and I don't fold socks. Ever. The boys' white socks go into one laundry room drawer, their dress socks in another. The girls' socks go into one drawer. They can find the matches :D Life is too short for me to fold socks for ten people...

Congratulations! Love his literary name :001_smile:
I just want to encourage you about the nursing. ALL of my 8 babies have had mouths too little for my *ahem* anatomy. When my milk comes in, I immediately start to pump and feed them from bottles. My pump is much gentler on me than the babies :blink: And the best news is, everyone of my babies has gone right to the b*east between weeks 5 and 6 without any problems. No "ni*ple confusion" (which, despite what the "experts" say, I think is really ni*ple preference, not confusion) and no pain.
All that to say- if you can manage to pump, it might be worth a try. I am pumping for my 12-day-old baby right now and although it takes time, I know there is light at the end of the tunnel and I am not in excruciating pain!

Swallows and Amazons!
-
Yes, the same 3,918 of you who figured out I was pregnant before I was willing to admit it :tongue_smilie:
-
It could definitely be the book. Don't tell anyone, but I don't care for Narnia or Middle Earth.:blush:
-
Wow. Now that I look at those, it is painfully obvious that THAT body had not yet seen nine pregnancies!
-
Not prom, but just as bad. Here's my best friend from college and me at our sorority (gag) presents, circa 1989:
And here's my wedding, circa 1991. Note Karen's white hose, a theme that keeps popping up here. Not sure about the gun pose, but we thought we were... something... not sure what...
-
Not BBC, but my favorite movie of this type (of any type, really) is A Room With a View.
-
And the dirt. Ick, the dirt.

Yep. My little Joe has this. Are you breastfeeding? If so, drop a bit of your milk into baby's eye at least six times a day. Breast milk is a more affective antiseptic than anything.

Instead of left clicking on the one you want (I usually choose the 128 kpbs option because it's better sound quality) right click on it and then select download link target. Sort them to a folder that you want them in (I gave each book a different folder so I could find them all easily), then you can upload them into iTunes and ((sigh)) onto your iPod! It's a bit of work but worth it, I think. :)
Fantastic! Thanks. I'm downloading Captains Courageous.

Hey Nan-
What do I click on to download these? I can get it to play live but I'd like to put it on my ipod.
Thanks!
Just curious...What are the benefits of tap dancing?

I studied both ballet and tap from ages 5- 22. Ballet required precision and muscle strength while tap gave a rigorous aerobic workout and great legs! I found them a nice compliment to each other while different enough that I stayed interested and focused on dance as my main exercise for all those years.
