Finally Friday: Pop Top Gloves

“Digital” gloves abound these days — designed to let you play with your smartphone while you’re wearing them — but I find that I still prefer these fingerless glove/mitten combos, because they’re the easiest way to stay warm while also having nimble fingers for buckling and unbuckling strollers, carseats, and more. Another bonus: If you’re holding hands, walking with someone who refuses to wear gloves (husband, child, whomever), you can interlock fingers and “share” the mitten part of the glove. These colorful gloves are 40% off at Nordstrom — they were $28 but are now marked to $16.80. Echo Pop Top Gloves

And — here are some of our latest threadjacks of interest – working mom questions asked by the commenters!
- The concept of “backup care” is so stupid…
- I need tips on managing employees in BigLaw who have to leave for daycare pickup…
- I’m thinking of leaning out to spend more time with my family – how can I find the perfect job for that?
- I’m now a SAHM and my husband needs to step up…
- How can I change my thinking to better recognize some of my husband’s contributions as important, like organizing the shed?
- What are your tips to having a good weekend with kids, especially with little kids? Do you have a set routine or plan?
So I’ve told my story on here for a little while, but there’s been a development I don’t feel ready to share with anyone (outside of my husband, obviously) irl.
I recently gave birth to our first kiddo; however, severe post-birth complications mean I can never become pregnant again. This was devastating for us as we had always planned on a couple kids, but we are strong and are working on moving on and were starting to look at adoption options.
A family friend approached us with a offer to be a surrogate. She’s basically the perfect candidate, and one who would be doing this fully out of the goodness of her heart.
This is a game changer… We aren’t making any decisions for a few months now, but it’s a whole new option.
Last post of the day. Wanted to put in a plug for the Sarah Wells Annie breast pump bag. So worth the money. Its beautiful and incredibly practical. And if you buy it at buy buy baby or bed bath and beyond (online) you can use a 30% off coupon. It’s not as big as some of the reviews made it out to seem, but still worth it.
I’m on a quest for maternity pants. I thought I was good here because this is #2, but I busted out all my old maternity clothes and am lacking in the casual/weekend wear department.
I’m a pre preg curvy tall size 10/12. I have one pair of bootcut maternity jeans that works now but will not last another month, much less another 5 months. I have lots of dresses and will probably forgo pants altogether after things warm up in May. I have leggings and tunics that I have mainly been living on (I work from the house most times, and have a maternity suit for when I do not) but I really need some kind of jeans.
Anyone have any skinny jeans (or jeggings? not typically my style but I am giving myself a break in that I’m pregnant!) that work well for pregnant pears? I never really found great skinny jeans for my non preg self, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist… or other options?
Bonus points if available at Nordies as I have $120 in gift cards to burn…
We recently got our son to transition from taking his milk in a bottle to a straw cup. He’s 22 months old. I realize it’s very late, but we tried many times before and he just wasn’t ready. Now, after making the switch so easily, two weeks in he is now refusing to drink any milk at all. It’s been three days.
Is it worth battling him to drink it? He eats lots of eggs, yogurt and cheese so I’m not too worried about his dairy intake. Is milk really that important? Or should I just keep offering it and let it go if he doesn’t want it?
I’m going to need a new smartphone soon, and I think that the main thing that I’m really interested in is getting a good, fast, easy to use camera for pictures of my baby and toddler. Any recommendations? I’ve got an i-phone 4s now, and I think it would be easiest to stay in the i-phone family, though I’m not really a major fan. I would like to keep the cost somewhat low, and have no interest in having the newest and shiniest; really the only feature I care much about is the camera. Anyone have a smartphone camera that they love or hate?
Silly question for y’all – I have a one year old who recently discovered how fun it is to pull toilet paper off the rolls in the bathrooms. What does one do to avoid this? Just put it on the back of the toilet for the next 5 years? I suppose she’ll learn “no” soon too, but for the time being she can make a mess really quickly!
