Some practical, some not...
1) What options do I have for our old crib? It's gorgeous and was high-end 9 years ago when we purchased it. However, it is also a now banned drop-side crib. ???
2) Anyone have a great Halloween costume idea for an 8-year-old boy? He has been a chef, a baseball player, and an astronaut in recent years. This year we've got no ideas. Ugh!
3) How do you organize hair bands/clips? We don't use anything fancy, but the Ziploc bag method is not working so well anymore. I've seen big glass jars full of everything (which look really cool), but I need to be able to fish through them easily for type/color.
4) Is it a sign that I watch too much reality tv that I am considering Caesarstone countertops based solely on
their partnership with Jeff Lewis?
5) Do you have any recommendations for apps for the ipad for phonics or sight words (pre-K level)? We have been using
this site on the computer, but I'd love to find a couple apps so that the girls feel more like they are playing a game.
6) How about math apps? I'm looking for an older level on this one. We've been using
this site (especially the
multiplication trainer), but again I'd love an ipad app so Jack could work on his own.
*We highly recommend My Spelling Test! Jack has been using it to study his spelling words each week and it is a super easy way for him to test himself each day. Best of all, it's free!
7) Who is excited for the
Missoni launch at Target today? There are so many cool things. I hope you've saved your pennies. Just don't buy these flats I've been drooling over for the past month, okay?
8) Why didn't anyone tell me how awesome
The West Wing is/was? I mean I guess I knew and that's why I avoided it (to avoid being hooked) until now, but I've never heard anyone go on about it or anything. I borrowed disc 1 from the library...I watched the pilot...10 minutes in I was hooked.
9) Have you ever heard of a washer putting stains ON your clothing? If so, how did you fix the issue? We recently bought a new-to-us, but still pretty new, washer (top-load, side agitators/no center blades, detergent & softener are added by the machine during the cycle). Now every time I use it, at least 3 pieces of clothing are ruined with yellowish/light brownish stains. I thought it might be sunscreen on the clothing, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
10) What are they putting in the Rolo McFlurry that has me so addicted to them? My first one was disappointing. I expected Blizzard mixing/consistency and they are really more of a sundae. Two weeks later, I had to try another one. Now I have a problem!
