My feet grew an entire size when I was preggers with the first. I went from a 7 to an 8. Never went back
Hi All, I do music therapy in K rooms, what are some favorite props you use the kids love?
Tonight's baby shower is in form of a scavenger hunt. I will tweet an item, you find it online and tweet a link or pic. Easy!

Carrie in PEI. Normally I try to bed by 10- but not Monday nights and not during this years World Series
So excited for you Kathleen! You deserve a chat dedicated to you!!
I'm afraid that happened to my butt. Sorry.
LOL! โฆthat was the third childโฆ
I have an only child. But NOT for reasons of vanity. Really.
A little. Been preoccupied by the Cubs for a bit though!
I intended to have 2- God had other plans. But Iโm glad he did!
Ok, the first item is VERY useful: a link to a workbook intended for children under 3.
. One year maternity leave here! ๐๐ป
I am grand! Super Excited my Cubbies are in the World Series! Never thought Iโd live to see the day!
Kelly!!! We need to set up a FaceTime soon. :-)
Thanks Kelly! I'm nervous with mega changes, but....yay?!
My kids lvoe puppets and as far as music, we have these awesome sticks with bells and streamers on!
WOW! With pay or what. Curious.
It really is! How are you?
Oh yes we do! I feel out of touch these days. Like you, busy with renos. Much better year here though!
There will be a new scavenger hunt item every 5 min, so stay focused!
The unborn child and I are DYING LAUGHING. But also crying that this exists! https://t.co/SQh2y9xJ0S
Ok, the first item is VERY useful: a link to a workbook intended for children under 3.
Youโll be an amazing mama!! Itโs different but very exciting. And weโre here for you!
Your baby will be the smartest one on the block!
Ok, scavenger hunt item #2: The most ridiculously expensive crib or cradle you can find.
Obviously your child will be gifted and ready for that workbook by 15 mos.
Woooooo!!!!! ๐ปโพ๏ธ https://t.co/N2CWjzhmV7
I am grand! Super Excited my Cubbies are in the World Series! Never thought Iโd live to see the day!
AND it's on sale, used, for $79.29 USD. That's only $423 CDN!!
I am insane. Our entire house is torn apart for renovations. I am sleeping on the family room floor.
You need to move to a hotel. Tell them that. Surely insurance will pay for it.
. 17 weeks with salary topped up to 95% by school board, the rest of the time is Employment Income.
sorry won't be able to join in. have 2run But u bet I'm going to check out all these clever answers! All the best
I know! I can't wait until games 3 and 4 when they are back at Wrigley!
Kitchen mostly. Also did a bit in the basement to make room for pool table (xmas gift). Now doing major kijiji sales
Not an insurance thing...this is self-inflicted. Refurbishing the whole house.
There was that $1500. one from the other day!
SHHH! Donโt say that out loud. Maybe somehow you can figure out a way to get that hotel paid for! lol!
April from Iowa, bed around 9:30 and wake up at 5:45
There's just no doubt. WITH proper pencil grasp. ๐
LOL! Not unless I pay for it myself.
Traffic safety worksheets are my favorite. Real life stuff, right there.
I like the one that is like Cinderella's Coach.
Item #3: Any baby item made with GLITTER.
Did you see the crib that,I think,MIT students created. Puts crying babies to sleep :)
This feels a bit like an aquarium. May traumatize said baby.
Ooooooh so I can watch my baby sleep from all angles! ๐
Looks like the child would be sleeping in a roof turbine or something!
I like the way that whole site is badly translated!
Hahahha oh my goodness, this looks like an air filter! ๐
That's what I was thinking. I love the Cinderella's coach one you found.
Yes! I want a bed like that.
And check their breathing. All new moms do.
Its something else! Totally matches all home decor. ๐
These are amazing and fantastic!
You can totally just throw those in the washing machine, hey?
It's so ugly. And so expensive! Art?
Absolutely!! And I'm sure they are comfy cozy too!
True story, I just threw a bunch of these out when I cleaned out school's old "curriculum".
Used to work at a contemporary art museum. Really didnโt get most of what I saw.
Baby shower item #4: a home behaviour chart system.
I approve. And basically have those shoes.
I don't know if I should be impressed that you know me so well, or....๐ https://t.co/hded4m4kJP
Baby shower item #4: a home behaviour chart system.
I thought you might have those!
I may have giggled a little too hard when I saw these!
Personalized with baby's photo too!
Ummmm, I sort of want those. One pair in red and one pair in TARDIS blue.
And laminate it and everything. Yay!
You didn't think I would do any old generic scavenger hunt for you, did I?
THAT'S THE SAME ONE I PICKED! (This baby better be a girl!)
Absolutely! I'd love some in royal blue.
oh my goodness I have lost the words.
And, up next for #5: A stroller for less than $100.
At such a reasonable price. You so savvy.
i like the stop light toddler behavior chart. red for bad, yellow for borderline and green for good!
Ha!! I found that one too! I like that it has the "clip" we about :)
So so so so soooo sad this exists!
Exchange rate today was 1.36 so that is a valuable question!!
I am so bad at party gamesโฆ
Haha, and I have the expensive stroller that this will fit...too funny!
Oh that made me laugh!! Now my stomach hurts!! This is too much fun for el sicko.
The next item might be my favourite: best Halloween costume for 's pregnant belly.
Okay, thanks to this scavenger hunt my Amazon suggestions are now totally out of wack. ๐๐
There will be a lot of DOWN TIME with a new baby in the house, so, you know DIY!
I use my Amazon acct to shop for school and for self and for gifts and for this... my recommendations are HILARIOUS.
I was just about to share this one, too!
I really feel as though could pull this one off.
Ok, item #7 is: a baby food recipe that you actually think sounds delicious.
Guys, these Halloween costumes are hilarious!
I'm thinking my vegan non-PB cup may not make this list
I think that thing is best described as non-food...
Oooooh but I heart cilantro! โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
Sorry, but I have to go. This was fun!
Then this recipe is definitely for you! I am one of the people who can't stand it.
I agree! Incorporates glitter & all. How perfect!!
I know will love item #8: the most developmentally INAPPROPRIATE baby toy/product you can find.
It's a bit disturbing... ๐
I am on the edge of the couch in anticipation. https://t.co/4W6bUJl8ST

peaches and banana puree and freeze for pops the whole fam can enjoy!
This totally backfired on the whole internet - I remember!
Inappropritate AND UNSANITARY!
Our next to last item: a funny meme featuring a baby.
Ewwwwwww ahahahhahaha I can't even!
So you're saying that keeping a $500 ipad near running water &... bodily fluids... does not seem like a good idea?
Hey, I heard that if you use that, your kiddo will be reading in just 5 or 6 short years...
Dear google: i promise that, in spite of tonight's search terms, I am NOT pregnant and I have GREAT judgment.
Has me laughing a little too hard

Thank you SO MUCH to and for organizing the bestest ever online baby shower! ๐๐๐
Thank you all again so much for coming, to for help plannking, and to for thinking we are funny.
Here is my unsolicited, no kids of my own, advice: laugh when you get peed on and laugh harder when hubby is peed on.
