Lunchtime- Let's Eat!

Tue, 15 Apr 2003 12:08:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - So what do you get your son in law for his twenty-fourth birthday? Why, a high chair, of course! I know- you’re probably sitting there, thinking ‘Huh?’ But this is exactly what my mom got my husband for his birthday last January. She wanted...

Can We Fix It? Yes We Can!

Tue, 8 Apr 2003 11:08:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Christmas Eve, roughly 10 PM.

There I am, sitting on the floor in front of the TV, half way listening to the ‘A Christmas Story’ marathon (I think I remember something about ‘You’ll shoot your eye out, Ho Ho Ho’). In front...

The Writing On The Wall

Tue, 8 Apr 2003 02:18:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - When Monster was younger, I loved to buy him bath toys. He has them all. He has those little toy boats that are supposed to float, he has those toys that squirt, he has toys that scoop, strain, and pour water, and just about everything else that you can...

Binky Problem Solved

Mon, 25 Nov 2002 03:39:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Before Bean was born, I bought pacifiers. Not just any pacifiers- but Gerber Nuk Pacifiers. After all, those are the ones that Monster preferred and ones that you can buy just about anywhere. I’m sure that you can imagine my surprise at the waste of...

A Picture Show For Tummy Time

Wed, 23 Oct 2002 13:26:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - I really don't like my tummy time that much. It's not really that much fun for me, especially since I realized that just simply being able to roll over does not mean that you can crawl. What a bummer that little piece of information was! I figure that...

Stack Em, Float Em, Play With Em

Mon, 23 Sep 2002 15:12:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - My bathroom is overrun with bath toys. Every time we shower, we have to clear out about two tons worth of bath toys before we even set foot in the shower. There are squirt toys, boats, foam letters, bath scrubbies shaped like cute little animals, and...

Imagine All The Babies Wearing White Cloud Diapers

Wed, 18 Sep 2002 10:33:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - My oldest boy was a Pampers baby. I hated Huggies with him- they always leaked. One thing that I've found is that how well diapers work depends on the baby. Monster wore only Pampers because Huggies and White Cloud leaked, and Luvs diapers were plastic...

My Monsters Are Baby Moose Monsters

Tue, 17 Sep 2002 18:06:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - To calm a child before bedtime, baths are recommended. But how calming can a bath be when you're upset about being washed, especially when it interupts some good splash time? Knowing just how much my two year old wanted to do nothing but play in the tub,...

Baby Looney Tunes Infant Carrier Musical Toy Bar 94057: Not If This Was The Last Toy Bar On Earth

Tue, 17 Sep 2002 17:28:54 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - When Monster was a baby, my mom bought him the Baby Looney Tunes Musical Toy Bar. I'll admit that it's cute- but after only a few short months of use, I had to get rid of it. It's just not worth the money.

Makes My Life Easier

Wed, 31 Jul 2002 09:15:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Shopping with my sister is so much fun. Especially since she likes to spoil her nephews. Our last shopping trip was a few weeks ago. She needed to get a gift for a cousin's baby shower, and asked if I wanted to go with her. Like she had to ask me...

Fri, 19 Jul 2002 10:25:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Monster just started using his imagination. Ok, so he doesn't imagine fantastic stories, mythical places, or pretend people- he imagines the things he likes most- car crashes, lawn mowers and tractors. He's a sight to see when he's pretending to be a...

Riding In Style... Maybe

Fri, 12 Jul 2002 15:58:28 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - At Monster's nine month well baby check up, we discovered that he had outgrown his infant carrier type seat by two pounds. It's not easy having virtually no time to shop around for car seats. We ended up having to wait a month (an entire month of lugging...

Thu, 11 Jul 2002 12:17:56 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - When I was pregnant with my oldest, my husband went all out. He was so excited. He tried to make every prenatal appointment, and for those that he couldn't be there for, I was expected to remember everything- even what the doctor was wearing! His...

Sat, 6 Jul 2002 13:16:20 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Ever notice how some of the oldest concepts make the best children's toys? When Monster was a baby, some of his favorite non-electronic toys included things like the shape sorter, the nesting vehicles, and the stacking rings- things that most parents...

Sat, 6 Jul 2002 09:31:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Monster is growing like a weed. It seems like just yesterday that he was a gleam in his father's eye. Now, he's a great big boy at the age of two. He's following in his father's footsteps. Monster has the same cast iron stomach, the same sunny...

Perfect for the Kitchen Bathers Among Us

Sat, 29 Jun 2002 17:03:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Due to circumstances beyond my control, Bean ended up not getting a tub bath until he was five weeks old (which would be just this last week- my how time flies when you're not getting any sleep). So until then, it was five weeks of sponge baths. For...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - When I was pregnant with my youngest son, I wanted to prepare my oldest for the changes that our family was about to go through. Someone had recommended Blue's Clues to us- specifically, Blue's Clues The Baby's Here. While walking through Wal*mart one...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - A Tuesday in October

There we were, my toddler and me, happily going about our business. I was fixing lunch, and the Monster was busy playing in the living room. Suddenly, I hear the low grumbling that means only one thing...

Honey, Where's The Sucky Thing?

Sat, 15 Jun 2002 12:47:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Who thought of these things? Whenever I see a nasal aspirator- especially some of the models out on the market- I can't help but think of some sort of torture advice. *Really bad foreign accent* You von't give us da secret code? Vell den, we'll just suck...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - About a month before my youngest son, nicknamed Bean, was born, my husband and I went out and purchased a package of Pampers Newborn Swaddlers. When we got home, the package sat, unopened, on the top shelf of the closet in our sons' room. I didn't open...

Sun, 2 Jun 2002 10:53:20 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - I didn't expect to have to purchase a new high chair when my second child was born. I expected the high chair that we bought when I was pregnant with my oldest son to actually last us through at least- at least- two kids. HA! The chair that we bought...

Sun, 2 Jun 2002 02:55:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Before my second son was born, I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted when shopping for baby necessities.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - My son loves to point out all the different modes of transportation that he sees from the back seat of the car (and our front sidewalk, back patio, windows, etc etc etc). Mostly, he points out the vehicles that he can relate to specific people. Grandma...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Knowing how much our son loves Monsters Inc, my husband and I are on constant look out for anything and everything Monsters Inc that our two year old can play with.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author fallyn96 - Shortly after we moved into our new apartment last October, the gate that we had been using broke. Since we were short on money, we decided that it would be easier to borrow the gate that my mother was using. I didn't like the style of the gate, but we...
