Th...I agree with cutting hair when it is scraggly. That's what we did with Lindsey. She was just over 3 1/2 when we got hers cut for the first time. It really thickened it up too - which was good because hers was so thin and fine. We still haven't cut Reagan's. But I'm to the point where I really want to. Just have to find the time and $.<br /><br />Food is always an issue with us too. While we were gone last week, I told someone that Lindsey really isn't that picky. But then we started talking about it and I saw how picky she really is. Whoops! My girls have their likes - Lindsey likes fruit Reagan tends to like veggies more.<br /><br />We have plugged into a small group at church and those girls are my sounding board for just about everything. We talk about kids, husbands (in a good way, of course), food, movies, everything! But I'd love to hang out with you some too. Maybe we can come up with a plan to meet and let the girls play while we chit chat. Maybe once the new Chick Fil A opens over here. :)Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00675013146229246852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-72720790104755050552012-03-18T17:23:25.660-05:002012-03-18T17:23:25.660-05:00Edamame and carrots - also easy snacks.Edamame and carrots - also easy snacks.the Whitelawshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12409074178153906538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-16188802828829563052012-03-18T15:50:13.355-05:002012-03-18T15:50:13.355-05:00Oh, girl, I'm feeling you with this post! Our ...Oh, girl, I'm feeling you with this post! Our boy is a terribly picky eater, just since we moved to finger foods. And, I too, got a concerned doctor lecture about him not gaining enough weight. I have found that the more I let him be in control, while very messy, he eats more. I just put some of everything that we eat on his tray. And, he still doesn't eat green vegetables, but he does eat more of a variety. Our girl is a great eater, but I've found that she likes to dip things (Ranch, etc). Maybe that would help? Grapes would be a great on the go snack for E, not so much for A because you'd have to cut them. String cheese is a great one, too.<br /><br />I decided to cut Jenna's hair when the ends were too scraggly and it kept getting very tangled. She was 3 and one month old. And now, she gets it cut every 3 months or so. I'd say that you cut it when you want to.<br /><br />As far as making real friendships, I've been struggling with that, too. I've heard that you have to give yourself 2 years once you move to a new place. However, I have found it extremely hard to make friends since I've had kids. It's nearly impossible to put in the time it takes to form real friendships! That, and kids being sick causing delays of playdates. I'm thinking of trying to establish a regular coffee/chat time with a set group of potential friends. We'll see.<br /><br />You're not alone.the Whitelawshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12409074178153906538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-88196807598958989952012-03-17T15:35:09.720-05:002012-03-17T15:35:09.720-05:00maybe you can put one of those little green maps o...maybe you can put one of those little green maps on the side so each time we click on Baby Ratliff, the red dot over Europe will expand.....no idea how to raise kids without carbs<br /><br />Linda and KentAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-54680497457809834182012-03-16T15:47:18.307-05:002012-03-16T15:47:18.307-05:00well, you know I love love love to see pictures of...well, you know I love love love to see pictures of the girls, but I understand the "have to" of blogging as well. I'm finding that I only blog events or routines (like the 10 on 10) rather than the mundane anymore. maybe because of facebook?<br /><br />here are my two cents on a couple of your questions.....<br /><br />1- I would say it's probably time to cut Emily's hair. one reason - it looked so cute when it was a bit shorter and curled more (maybe the length from her birthday last year?)! two, maybe slightly less work/fight for you to deal with it.<br /><br />2-snack options -- what about fruit or cheese? I know those require a bit more in the way of packing/repacking/carrying a cooler or insulated box, but might not be too hard. or dried fruit or fruit chips? popcorn? yes, I know it is a carb-ish snack too and don't know how long it would stay reasonably fresh.Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10063854181837138925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-38893470593391424732012-02-19T18:06:19.789-06:002012-02-19T18:06:19.789-06:00such a cute Rhino!! :-)such a cute Rhino!! :-)Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10063854181837138925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-89398112139956756952012-01-20T14:36:57.023-06:002012-01-20T14:36:57.023-06:00Looks like cute happy girls.Looks like cute happy girls.Kathylouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18379453626503970429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-76727516054548129452012-01-20T14:36:31.426-06:002012-01-20T14:36:31.426-06:00They are growing and look like very happy girls.They are growing and look like very happy girls.Kathylouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18379453626503970429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-67491550050896402242011-12-30T22:43:05.313-06:002011-12-30T22:43:05.313-06:00thanks for the napkins! can't wait to get star...thanks for the napkins! can't wait to get started using them!!Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10063854181837138925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-29671490960370210992011-11-19T21:26:44.123-06:002011-11-19T21:26:44.123-06:00Papa being silly with head-wear again.....still cu...Papa being silly with head-wear again.....still cute!Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10063854181837138925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-341343059863918323.post-65892752932148268962011-10-31T15:16:53.709-05:002011-10-31T15:16:53.709-05:00Emily make a cute green frog and Anna is about the...Emily make a cute green frog and Anna is about the cutest pumpkin I have seen.
