I have a couple questions that maybe you ladies could help with:

1. My munchkin has been grinding her teeth a lot lately, and the sound is driving me absolutely crazy! Any suggestions to get her to stop with using the Paci?

2. Any suggestions to get baby girl to drink milk? She absolutely HATES milk (except in her eggs) and the doctor seems to think she needs to drink more milk and no bottles now that she is one....which brings me to my final question.

3. Any suggestions on how to get her off...

#preggiephotos Nothing beats an afternoon nap with your favorite auntie while on a family camping trip.

I cannot believe how much this girl has grown in the past couple months. She is almost 11 months, LOVES to sit on the potty (although doesn't go half the time), enjoys going for walks, and climbing on top of everything! Time needs to slow down a little.

Late summer after my daughter was born, I had some "mommy and me" photos done. I just now received permission to view these photos and the photographer's website...a good 6 months after they were done! And I am beyond pissed about how they turned out. The photographer only kept one picture where you could see my daughter, otherwise, it looks like I'm just cradling a blanket. I plan to attempt new "mommy and me" pictures this summer, my daughter will be one years old then. I know many of the moms...

I cannot believe that my little stink-butt is 7 months old and in piece 12 month pajamas! 😭

Cannot believe my little angel is 7 months old, is 27inches tall, 18.6 pounds, and has 2 teeth! I swear just yesterday I was being induced...where the hell does the time go?!?

My daughter hasn't been feeling the best the past few days. All day today she has been calling "dada"...being that she has only met her father once (when she was only a few weeks old, his choice to not come around) I'm assuming that she is calling for my dad. I show her a picture of her PeePaw (my dad) and she shrieks in delight and screams "dada". I think it's safe to say that I have a PeePaw's girl on my hands. :)

I currently live with my parents, and we have a houseful! Including my parents, my little brother, his fiancé, their daughter, my daughter, and myself all live together. Lately there has been some "disagreements" between my brother's fiancé and myself....mostly parenting styles and issues involving the baby dishes. Is it wrong of me to be secretly excited and counting down the days until they move out?

My boyfriend has a little boy who is a little over a year and a half. He has been working with trying to potty train him for a good 7 months with no success (mostly due to different parenting styles between the mother and father). Now that his mother has been fired from work and can no longer afford diapers, she wants to potty train their son. Any suggestions on techniques that will work at both homes even though parenting styles are completely different?
