My jewelry collection skews subdued (think pearl pendants and simple gold chains), but this fun necklace made me smile.
The aptly named Lollipop Multi-Stone Necklace has colorful bezel-set gemstones in a sterling silver 18” necklace. The pretty spring colors from gems like blue topaz, mother of pearl, and lemon citrine complement both neutral suits and floral dresses.
This necklace is $995 at Bloomingdale’s.

I’ll probably post again in the morning, but DS is going to be a year old in a few weeks, I’m trying to wean from breastfeeding sometime before June, and I just…want anecdotes. He doesn’t nurse very often during the day, but it still feels like he wants to nurse ALL NIGHT. Would just like to hear how it’s gone for others, especially around this same age. Thanks, friends. <3
Favorite Easter traditions? We are hosting the family this year. 11 kids, ages 2 to 14. There will be an egg hunt, but I’d love to have another cute activity for at least the younger ones.
Advice needed please. I was blessed with a child who was very good sleeper, right until a few months ago, shortly after she turned 2.5. We went on a trip and both got sick, and at the same time she learned how to climb out of the crib (at the Airbnb, so far not at home, thankfully). This seems to have completely upended our sleep harmony. We were sick for weeks with a series of bugs, and my pediatrician advised to just let her drink milk if that was all she would take (she lost her appetite and didn’t even want to drink juice or pedialyte for rehydration). She started waking up at night asking for warm milk while coughing, and I gave in to keep her comfortable and hydrated. Now she’s better, but she has gotten into the habit of waking up and demanding warm milk. I tried to go cold turkey and she spent 2 hours between 2am and 4am the other night screaming and screaming for milk. I tried other ways to soothe her, but as soon as I caved she drank the milk and fell back asleep. I’m a solo parent with a demanding job, and also still struggling with post-viral fatigue, so not sleeping through the night any more is really taking a toll. Any tips? I’ve started diluting the milk with water to make her lose interest. I’m concerned about the waking up (she’s cranky and tired during the day, she clearly needs more sleep), and also her teeth (letting her have a bottle in bed is such a bad habit). But I’m also desperate for sleep. Help!
Has anyone done a Royal Caribbean cruise with kids? I’m looking at one out of NOLA for next spring break. I’ve been on Royal Caribbean before so I’m familiar with food, etc., and specifically looking for thoughts on the kids club and kid-related stuff. We’d get at least a balcony room, possibly a suite. Disney is not in the budget, it’s almost literally 10 times as expensive.
First time here with conjunctivitis with Mom and Dad – I used my daughter’s left-over medicine from a couple of weeks ago. Going to the Dr this afternoon. Anyone have anything that worked well for them?
We will be going to Naples, FL to visit my parents for Easter. Looking for fun things to do with our 7 and 2 year old. Thanks in advance!
Any thoughts on how to make sharing a hotel room with a 4 year old less terrible? Lol. Trying to find some last minute options for spring break. I’m looking at resorts Great Wolf or an all-inclusive in DR, but DH is not keen on sharing a room with DS. He’s been spoiled by AirBnBs. Thanks!
What does a toddler wear to a Purim party? I’m not Jewish but husband is and we’re raising our daughter Jewish, so this is a learning curve for me. We have an elephant costume from last Halloween and a dress or two. Please don’t tell me I need to go shopping for a costume before Saturday.
I’m hearing conflicting things about “bumpy” exercise in early pregnancy – that on the one hand the uterus and embryo are very well-protected and that on the other, you want to avoid “jarring” exercises. I plan to ride my mountain bike (on trails well within my skill level) in the first trimester and it can be bumpy at times. Is there anything that’s actually evidence-based out there? I feel like there are so many outdated bits of advice that just get repeated.
Advice needed. Our toddler attends a daycare we really like in our area. She is in the 1s class, and all her teachers are wonderful. Recently, one of her teachers was away for two weeks and was temporarily replaced by another teacher from the 2 class, let’s call him Julio. I’ve noticed Julio before because he happens to be a man, which is unusual in the world of daycare teachers, and he seems like a really warm personality and the kids love him. I have also run into him smoking (tobacco) outside the daycare. He always follows the rules and smokes far away from the door. But when he was in our daughter’s class, we noticed that his clothes reek of smoke. We didn’t say anything for 2 weeks, but there is a possibility that our daughter would be moved into Julio’s class in a few months. In that case, would you say anything? I realize there’s no law about smoking outside on breaks, but if you teach at a daycare… I guess I’m concerned about secondary smoke exposure, and the smell is just super icky to me. But Julio otherwise seems very nice and I don’t want to create trouble.
I know this has been covered in the blog before, but does anyone have any advice on getting through early pregnancy at work? I’m 11 weeks and feel unbelievably exhausted and constantly nauseous. I don’t want to share the news yet, but I just feel so grim and I know I’m not performing at my best.
