But there is something about the public library summer program...View Thread
I am soooo ready to be done with the 1st grade teacher this year. She held Henry out of recess for 10 mins of the 15 because he was "acting silly". I really do not understand. Let them play and be silly you might get a little out of them in the classroom this week. Absolutely crazy. Quite honestly I will be utterly grateful to never deal with her again.

Work was weird today...people were so cranky.
So tommorow is a new day right !View Thread
Where do you go online for LOLs?
I am the room mom so I set up a 1st grade classroom site on - I'm on that all the time. And, of course, I visit WebMD Health News , TMZ (for my celebrity news/scandal fix) and I spend lots of time on Facebook for work and fun.

I have gained a ton of weight, but I am not worried about it right now- my clothes are my same size pre-baby weight gain only maternity, and they fit. I actually have some tops that are non-maternity that I wore last summer, but they are so long I am wearing them anyway! So the weight is all in my belly I think.
Since I am going to be away from home for so long, I am hoping that helps me get healthier- my responsibilities will include going to the NICU and resting, so I am going to try to walk as much as I can, and eat as well as I can, and let the chips fall as they may...View Thread

But we've also found that the kids you get that aren't your own are much better behaved with us than our kids! LOL!!!

My 2 went last month and everything looked great-since DS took the dantist to heart and now eats more chocolate than gummies, he has no more cavities!

I also think processed food has caused a lot of issues for a lot of people.
I am striving to give a balance. Not deny every treat ect. But to have a good balance of having treats and eating healthy.View Thread
Just so I know for next time, are there no mods watching the system on the weekend? And if there are, do they not really care what people are reporting or what posters request?View Thread
Sort of seems like my husband wins as he will be alone for a few hours!
Oh, and we'll watch hockey if the Kings are on - still waiting for schedule!

Guess I'll have to try DD coffee. I was dying for a Starbucks this am but kept thinking about this post and talked myself out of it as I sit here sipping my ice water. Bleh.View Thread
Michael has always always moved slow. I remember when he was like 3 or 4, he wasn't able to walk and talk at the same time. Not once in awhile, but all the time. I used to make up a song to get him to move his little butt. Everything takes longer with him....getting into his car seat, buying something, brushing his teeth, getting ready....things that should take a few seconds will take him minutes. Maybe it is just his personality (like I always thought) but maybe it is more.
As far as school goes....in first grade they have an "extended readiness" class which has 12 kids in it who do not have an IEP but just need the extra help. I was told he is a strong candidate for it. He will also get lots of services as well. When I asked what reading level he was on, I was told an "A" which is the lowest. I was thinking of holding him back so he could maybe gain confidence but I also don't want him to be traumatized by it either. Still torn...View Thread
"Oh, please don't go—we'll eat you up—we love you so!" And Max said, "No!"
