    Captain chairs or bench row

    @hekter I had a Nissan pathfinder with a bench seat in the middle row and loved it. Then that car got totaled when a deer jumped up off the side of the road and smashed into the side. My replacement is a Hyundai Palisade with captain’s chairs in the middle row and I think it’s a huge upgrade! My...

    Sick of everyone trying to buy baby shoes

    @caleb22 I have two pairs of tiny wee converse that each of my kids have worn, like, twice. So dang cute. Also 100% impractical.

    Does anyone else’s working spouse do this? I swear it’s cognitive dissonance

    @iambatman11 That’s such a good point about becoming blind to the mess when you live in it. I have ADHD and, in my mind, the task of making the food is completely separate from the task of cleaning up after. I don’t really clock the mess until my brain announces it is clean up time, and then...

    Having a sixths baby?

    @alex_t My parents have 6 kids; I am the oldest. Number 5 was a surprise. Number 6 was a shock and my mom was 41 when baby was born. I was 16, and my other siblings ranged in age from 3-14 without any huge gaps, much like your family. I absolutely love my huge family. All of us siblings are...

    My kids (5, 7) just left for a 6-day vacation with my husband, why can't I stop crying

    @elaine87775 My husband is arranging for the two of us to go away overnight for our anniversary and I don’t think we’ve done that in over 3 years. Thanks for the reminder that I’m not going to know what to do with myself and to take it easy at first.

    SAHPs, I Keep Messing Up and I'm Embarrassed. I Need to Fix This

    @ryannate One of my kids has dance lessons on consecutive days and I cannot, for the life of me, remember which time goes with which day. My phone reminds me an hour before the lesson every time, otherwise I would absolutely forget a lesson at least once all month.

    Cleaning/chore advice mom of 4

    @cbaker06021984 We have four kids too, 12, 9, 5, and almost 2. What works best for us is a nightly reset where we all pitch in with assigned jobs and then I handle the rest. After dinner, husband and 9 yo do all the dishes from the day and clean the table and counters. My 12 year old switches...

    90% of conversations I provide aren’t focused on myself and I’m kinda of tired of that

    @christina_the_latter My husband bitches about his clients and I tell him my clients are super demanding too, I gotta be on call 24/7 and everything!

    Human Pillow

    @acubarry Girl, I’m on day 3 of my 21 month old having a cough so bad she pukes and I’m not handling it well. Kudos to you for managing that nonsense for two WEEKS. Last night baby girl was basically up till 5 am. We tried everything. Rocking chair: puke. Lying in bed with daddy and me: kicking...
