  1. I have a kid who is super prone to the headaches. Like 6 of the last 7 days she's been headachey enough to disrupt her life. The kid is 9. Her vision has been checked. She sleeps plenty (8p - 7a, usually). No diet sodas or caffeine. Moderate amounts of exercise. Very limited screen time (well under an hour per day). We're beginning a Whole 30 to figure out whether it's some food thing (what??). The kid has been headachey off and on forever, it seems like, but with a definite uptick in the last couple of months. Any ideas? I mentioned it to her pediatrician, who offered medication (we may be back for that!) but little inclination to understand the cause.
  2. I highly recommend Well Fed 2. It's a paleo cookbook and I think it's awesome. I own several paleo cookbooks, but WF2 is the one I reach for more often than the rest put together. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  3. Hattie Big Sky is fantastic! And we all loved Come On, Seabiscuit. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  4. That was both informative and hilarious! Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  5. We have 4 kids and no crazy dirty shoes, but plenty of regular shoes. I used to have a big basket by the front door, but that drove me crazy. So now, the shoes live in one of those cabinets of 12x12 cubbies. It has six cubbies, so each person has a spot. And if I find shoes lying about, they go into detention for a week.

  6. I am not above serving popcorn and apples for dinner. Also, I rely on chopped salads during the summer, preferably with some grilled chicken. And I always love crunchy tacos. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  7. We use it x2 and think it's great! Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  8. We're fixing to purchase a new mattress. But gee whiz, I hate the thought of paying $$$ for what seems so simple a thing. Do any of y'all have experience with IKEA mattresses? Or have any other ideas that would be more I the $ range I stead of the $$$? But! It still has to be good and last a long time. Is that just too much to hope for? Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  9. I think giving a gift when and if it is your delight is always the right thing. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  10. I have 16 different colored place settings (my MIL gifts dishes every year!). I super-love my Fiestaware. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  11. Super helpful, thank you! I'm going to give it a whirl. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  12. When y'all have separate profiles for the different users, are you able to access everyone's material on mobile devices? I can switch profiles on the big computer, but can't figure it out on our iThings or my android phone. Any ideas? Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  13. I think it's worth it. I've done it twice successfully and bailed after a few days once. My favorite bit (besides losing the few pounds) was knowing that I could! I felt so free about the food - just because I was in a room with a cookie didn't mean I had to eat it, kwim? You do wind up cooking and preparing a lot. But it's so worth it.

  14. I have a similar table and bought a big piece of glass to go over the top. It's super easy to clean, no worries about crumbs in the grooves or scratches in the finish. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  15. I would. Unless , of course, it stank or looked sketchy. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  16. My 10 year old made them yesterday - chocolate outside and filled with chocolate chip cookie dough. Super-yummy, but probably not ultra traditional. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  17. I had an Easter breakthrough last year. We have four girls; I made one Easter basket. It was awesome. The basket looked great and the girls loved the stuff in it (a little bit of candy, new swimming goggles, some hair thingys). I always want to avoid having too much candy AND avoid making it a big gifting occasion. I will never go back to four Easter baskets. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  18. I love a blog called Modern Mrs. Darcy. It's not just a books blog, though this gal is a seriously avid reader. I have been introduced to several fantastic books that I'd otherwise never have known. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  19. We're tent campers! Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  20. For me today is the 30! I'm not planning any major departures from W30 food, but it's nice to have the option. :) Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  21. ?? or ¿? is how I tend to handle this. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  22. Wilma

    Worried!

    Is his DTaP current? Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  23. Y'all. The cooking. The dishes. Holy buckets. It's a lot.
  24. We use quart jars. Or cool in those and freeze in zippies. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
  25. I have one girl who *hates* her middle name with a Fire passion. (It's Kate.) I will not be surprised if she swaps it out for something else eventually. For the past two years "Elephant" has been her middle name of choice. And truly, I will other mind her changing her middle name at all. Another kid hates her full name, but loves the short version that we always have used. She might legally change eventually, too, but again I would not mind a bit. Sent from my XT1094 using Tapatalk
