The car seat question above has me wondering something which may sound extremely stupid. I have an infant so I am years away from this. But how do you car pool now that kids are in car seats, boosters, etc. for so much longer than when we grew up? Do you just not carpool until they are done with car seats, and how old are they at that point?
I might be overthinking this because growing up my town did not have buses (it was small enough to not be required to bus, but my elementary school was far enough across town I had to be driven, so I was carpooled to and from school starting in K).
I’m in my third trimester, and am so over being pregnant. I feel like all anyone asks me about is the baby. I want to think about something different. I’m considering taking a vacation before returning from my 22 week leave. I will not make a final decision till long after the baby is born, but figure it is something fun to consider. I’m in DC. I would go a beach that was drivable if it was a summer/fall baby. But this trip would be late February. Any ideas for where to travel with a 21-22 week old?
Help me shop for a daytime Labor Day wedding! I am still nursing and have a (non nursing) toddler. Wedding is mostly outdoors in the woods in VT. I am leaning towards pants since it will likely be cooler and I will have to run after the kids.
TW: Miscarriage.
I just found out at my 10-week ultrasound that my surprise second pregnancy was not viable, and naturally started to miscarry shortly after. Currently waiting to see if it passes on its own or if I need further intervention (sidenote: I’m very grateful to live in a place where I can get whatever care I need in this situation). I know this is common and happens more often that we think, but ugh, it stings, especially since I was pretty far along and starting to show a little. Please send good vibes and anecdotes about conceiving healthy babies after a miscarriage.
I posted yesterday but I think my comment got eaten. What are your 9/10/11 year old girls wearing these days? I took my 10 year old shopping and I could not get over that everything looked like the Delia’s catalogue of my youth.
My kid and her friends are wearing/want to be wearing:
– Air force 1s, air max 270s for sneakers, Crocs, Birks, and those silly puffly slides (I don’t know what they are called, we don’t have them)
– baggy light colored jeans, some girls are wearing flared jeans. Snugger tops + hoodies on top (my daughter would love to be wearing a shirt that is more of a mini-shirt, our family rule/ the schools very loose rule is no visible belly buttons)
– flared yoga pants
– lulu lemon belt bags in fun colors
– shorts that I’ve learned are called “butterfly” shorts? My kid got them off amazon on the advice of her tennis coach who wore them all summer. They’re like bike shorts with swishy material on the outside that make them look like a skirt. Super cute.
– hooded sweatshirts with some personality (eg. a sport team they are on, a fave vacation spot)
– Sport stuff with their names embroidered on it
– stanley water bottles, or hydroflasks if their mean mom bought one last year and refuses to buy a second $40 waterbottle.
– tall socks, preferably nike in brand.
I see a couple kids with State backpacks but largely they haven’t caught hold around us. I think maybe they are not big enough for all the junk our kids have to carry back and forth to school?!
My kid runs sporty and most of her friends are slightly older (mine is an old rising 5th grader but many of her friends are going into 6th).
My 7 year old is firmly in camp “I still hate jeans but want to look cute” so rocks a lot of skirts and dresses. She’s got some athletic wear sprinked in. She’s going into 2nd and unicorns and sparkles have never been her thing.
My 5 year old wanted to buy a chocker at target. So she did. With her own money. And she rocks it with a velour type scrunchie and I can’t get enough of it.
My 5 year old is very tall and getting close to the height limit in all the carseats we have (two Britax Advocates and one Cosco Finale – all 49″). I assumed we’d just switch her to the backless booster we’ve been using for travel, but a couple friends were kind of pearl-clutchy about it when I mentioned it. They have tiny kids though, and I’m not sure they understand how differently the seatbelt hits a tall kid. She’d likely be nearly 6, if not already 6, when we make the switch. Thoughts?
What are some good bath toys for a 2-3 year old? We’ve been using bath crayons and then just a couple of small baby shark toys, and a spare toothbrush because kids are weird, but any other suggestions?
Also, we’re still using an infant tub but will need to transition into the big tub soon, but we’ve already seen how slippery it is for our kid – any recommendations for mats or stickers for grip?
Any leads on good places to go in person kids clothing shopping in NYC? My 3 year old is so particular about what clothing she wears that Id love to be able to vet them with her before buying. We like the Boden kids look and it seems they may be available in person at Nordstrom. Any other ideas?
Parents whose kids share a room- do you have two dressers, one for each kid? Or do they share? My kids share a fairly large bedroom and a dresser, currently. We could get another one, I guess, but I would prefer not to take up more floor space with it. They are also girls who are close in age and close in size as well, so I’m wondering if maybe two dressers would help keep things separate or if that’s a losing battle. I grew up with a brother in a different room so this is new territory.
Just dropped off my new kindergartner for the first time!
This is adorable.
