Okay it’s not art but I didn’t know a better subreddit and I snorted when I saw this (emptying his backpack from June the night before school starts like the MVP mom I am)

A little stressed about getting enough iron now that we’re off formula but I think we’re doing okay. Here’s what she ate in a day, snacks & meals

It’s giving Happee Birthdae Harry except much much worse

I tried to explain the Sop Doll story to my Vermonter husband as a “children’s story” and he looked at me like I was abused lol

Nope just a canon event at grandmas house, I think

Okay it hasn’t been months yet but…. There’s no sign of turning red.

I have photos from July 14th where these tomatoes are more or less the same size, they’ve hardly changed. My plant keeps producing new tomatoes but my biggest ones still haven’t turned red?? Not even any blush??

Is this normal? Will they eventually turn or do I have faulty tomatoes? It’s my first time growing them

We are 2 weeks from our first birthday & I’ve been nervous about her getting enough nutrition from just food to be able to stop formula.

After posting, I also shared my concerns with our peds who said she’s grown perfectly on her curve and actually went up percentile in height! So he thinks she’s doing fine but obviously if we saw a dip after stopping formula we could reevaluate.

But in the meantime I took some of the advice you guys shared on my last post and I tried my best to give bigger pieces & portions, as well as letting her graze more / take breaks (extending how long mealtime is), and offering a little less formula during the day to encourage solids more.

While it does still seem like she’s an air plant by nature and simply grows off sunlight and lint she finds on the floor….. I think there’s been some progress!!!!!

*ETA: Idk why NY is after Vermont in the title I mustve hit something without noticing but I live in VT not NY. Not that it likely matters when it comes to plants

This is growing on the edge of my yard. Is it poisonous? I have a fear of suspicious red berries lol. I love my kiddos to death but they’re wildlings and cannot be trusted not to eat random things despite being spoken to and being well old enough to know better. So I’d like to get rid of them if they’re dangerous. But I’ll leave them if they’re a snack!

So at 12 months they say to quit formula and serve cows milk. But only serve 16oz a day, and like 4oz of water. They say “baby doesn’t need formula anymore because they get all the nutrients they need from food”

So…. I’m feeling nervous with 12 months coming up. My baby is drinking about 24oz of formula a day and has no interest in water. She eats very small portions. While I keep her diet as balanced as I can, it feels like she’s not really getting “all the nutrients she needs”. I’ve tried to remove one 8oz bottle from her day to get her to 16oz & to eat more food, but it just pisses her off to no ends & I can’t just ignore my baby’s hunger cry. But she doesn’t want snack as a substitute.

I guess I’m looking for advice. Is anyone else really nervous about transitioning out of formula?

& also how did he change the dirt LOL

If I weren’t the only one who touches this garden I’d think he was transplanted here
