What Little L Wore: Minnie Mouse Stride Rite Crawl Shoes
Thanks to Disney for sponsoring this post and giving me the Minnie Mouse Crawl Shoes from Stride Rite for free.
I love when babies reach important milestones. Today Little L had her six-month check up — she got a few shots (always hard to watch!); we'll be starting solids now; and she is doing a semi-crawl, moving around faster than ever!
To celebrate, I brought out these really cute Minnie Mouse Crawl Shoes from Stride Rite. When I first got them a few months ago, they looked enormous! Although they're still a little big, she can wear them without them coming off and they are perfect for her crawling and exploration phase! Besides the usefulness, they are mega-cute and look adorable with her outfits.
There really is magic in every step!
Minnie Mouse Crawl Shoes from Stride Rite
As seen on Disney Baby: "As your little one begins to explore, Minnie Mouse will be right by her side in these pink Disney Baby pre-walker shoes by Stride Rite featuring Minnie Mouse's silhouette on the side and polka dot bow on top. These shoes are part of the new Stride Rite Crawl Collection for giving crawling feet the flexibility to move with added protection at the heel and toe."
Polka dot madness!
A girl's got to have at least one polka dot item in her wardrobe and Little L is way ahead of the game. The sweet bow adds a delicate touch.
Approved by Minnie!
Each shoe is personally autographed by Minnie herself, adding an extra layer of cuteness!
Sturdy and secure
Their little feet are safe and secure with the Velcro strap and cushioned on the inside.
Ready, set, CRAWL!
There she goes! Ready to crawl, and doing it in comfort and style.
There she goes!
I was so happy when I realized she could wear the shoes. This pair starts from 3 months — although we had to wait because she had tiny feet!

Dick's still going strong at 59on January 28, 2013 @ 3:49 pm (Updated: 6:20 pm - 1/28/13 )
Dick Spady was just a kid of 29 when he started Dick's Drive-In in 1954. Monday marked the Seattle-based burger joint's 59th birthday and his son, Jim Spady, says his dad is still very involved in his namesake at age 89.
"He's still the president of the company, still going strong, still very interested in the drive-in and making sure that we continue to cook well and serve our customers quickly, charge fair prices and treat our employees well," said Spady.
With six locations now, Spady calls his restaurant chain a small Seattle icon.
"Every town of any size has a favorite burger joint and we're lucky that we're Seattle's favorite burger joint and we were here before everyone else and we've been serving great food for 59 years," said Spady.
Spady says Dick's has survived the explosion of fast food joints by doing what it does well, using fresh, not frozen products and hand dipping its milkshakes.
The latest outlet in Edmonds is cooking, so might Dick's finally open an Eastside location?
"We did promise that if it was successful that we would eventually open restaurants both in the Eastside and in the south end and we will do that. But we are a small business and we can only afford to grow so fast," Spady cautioned.
Tuesday, the Dick's birthday celebration continues with two-for-one burgers from 2 until 6:30 p.m. And Spady said brainstorming is already underway for next year's 60th birthday celebration.

There's not much good you can count on Congress to accomplish, but when it comes to introducing and passing oligarch protecting, civil liberties destroying legislation, our "representatives" are absolutely relentless in their determination. Unsurprisingly, the only "distinctly native American criminal class," as Mark Twain described Congress, is at it again when it comes to institutionalizing spying and attempting a legal run around the Bill of Rights.
One thing that has become crystal clear since the Edward Snowden revelations, is that much of Congress has no problem at all with unconstitutional spying. Rather, they are primarily upset it was exposed and are dead set on making sure no other whistleblower can ever do the same. Enter CISA, or The Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act.

Best Family-Friendly Sedans
For our annual review, we tested 16 of the best-selling four-door cars. Here, our fab five
By The Good Housekeeping Institute
Top Luxury
BMW 328i ($37,775 base, $47,345 for M Sport as tested; 23/33/26 mpg*)
If you don't mind spending more and want a sportier sedan, this posh quality pick is a clear winner. It got top marks for steering and responsiveness and posted the fastest times in acceleration. The four-cylinder turbo had the best fuel economy of the five more luxurious sedans tested.
The suspension got the highest score in our smoothness-over-bumps test. Infotainment was both effective and frustration-free, with an intuitive joystick-style control. Despite its smaller size, it scored well for passenger comfort and back-row roominess.

A federal judge in Chicago earlier this month ordered a Hilton hotel in a Chicago suburb to pay $195,000 to Hispanic employees who were harassed by the hotel's top chef, the Associated Press recently reported.
In its lawsuit, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunities Commission charged that the executive chef at the Hilton hotel in Lisle, Ill., regularly referred to Hispanic employees with racial epithets such as "wetbacks," according to the AP story. Human resources management website HR.BLR.com mentioned the case this week.
Lisle is about 25 miles outside Chicago. Hispanics are now Illinois' largest minority group, according to a USA TODAY article that cites 2010 Census data.
TWITTER: Follow Hotel Check-In's BarbDelollis
"A Hilton official was not made available for comment on the ruling," the AP story says.
The damages will be distributed to the two employees who filed discrimination charges with EEOC and one additional employee. U.S. District Judge Edmund Chang earlier this month also ordered the Hilton hotel to institute anti-discrimination training for all employees, AP says.
The hotel also must report any related complaints of harassment or retaliation to the EEOC for the next three years.
The ruling came as a result of a suit filed by the EEOC after two hotel employees filed harassment charges.
"Federal law clearly requires employers to take prompt remedial action when they learn of harassment," regional EEOC attorney John Hendrickson says in an EEOC press release.
"In this case, the EEOC was prepared to show that not only did multiple employees report the harassment, but also that the executive chef himself acknowledged [harassing them]. That's not acceptable, and it's not legal."

DAISY (Digital Accessible Information System) Offers a Literacy Revolution
A DAISY book is a set of digital files that include audio narration, text marked with special navigation tags, and other files that synchronize the text with the audio. Unlike analogue talking books, DAISY books offer easy and rapid navigation. A book can be navigated by such elements as sentence, paragraph, page (including specific page numbers) and various heading levels. It is also possible to fast forward or rewind and to jump back and forth by time increments when using the audio component. Read with your eyes, ears or fingers.

People Learn and Understand Information in Many Different Ways
Studies by and for educators identify three basic styles of learning: auditory, tactile/kinetic, and visual. Auditory learners prefer lectures and discussions to textbooks. They interpret meaning by paying close attention to tone of voice, pitch, and speed. Tactile/kinetic learners prefer a hands-on approach. They may be easily distracted by their need for exploration and activity. Visual learners often think in pictures and prefer graphical representations of concepts through charts, diagrams, or tables.
Some individuals may not fall under these three learning styles; they may require a combination of two styles to understand and comprehend new material. Others may have to adapt to new learning styles as their lifestyles change. For example, a visual learner who is experiencing the effects of aging on their eyesight, may need to shift toward a more auditory learning style.
Conversely, a youngster who has successfully learned through hands-on, tactile methods may need to adapt to more visual and auditory learning as they enter higher education.
By synchronizing audio, images and text, DAISY multimedia can address the needs of each type of learner. DAISY hardware players, much like CD players or MP3 players, can be of great assistance to auditory learners who benefit from audio playback, whether presented through a text-to-speech feature or through human narration.
Full-text, full-audio DAISY books synchronize the audio playback with written text displayed on a computer screen to the benefit of visual learners. Easy navigation of information produced in DAISY offers tactile/kinetic learners the opportunity to explore documents and interact with information in a way that holds their attention and improves their learning.
People with print disabilities such as blindness or dyslexia have benefited from DAISY's synchronized multimedia for more than a decade. Thanks to the recent development of new software tools for the production of DAISY multimedia, today everyone can have access to information in a way that best suits their personal learning style.

Services Overview
Below is a list of the principle services offered by SF Paratransit. SF Access, Paratransit Taxi, Ramp Taxi and Group Van services all require that riders meet eligibility requirements set forth by the Americans with Disabilites Act (ADA). Persons who are not ADA eligible may qualify for Shop-a-Round. Your eligibility for each service will be determined during the eligibility certification process after receipt of a completed application.
What types of Paratransit services are provided in San Francisco?
We provide four main types of service:
SF Access – ADA Paratransit
SF Access is a pre-scheduled, ADA-compliant van service providing door-to-door transportation. Additionally, it is a shared-ride service. You must make reservations from one to seven days before the day of your trip, and service is provided within one hour of your requested pick-up time. For additional information on SF Access (click here).
Paratransit Taxi & Ramp Taxi
Paratransit Taxi utilizes the general public, curb-to-curb taxi and ramp taxi services. This is not an ADA service, but many riders find that it better meets their transportation needs. Currently, due to budget constraints, taxi service is not available to most new customers. Some exceptions are made for wheelchair users, those needing kidney dialysis, and people over 80 years of age. For additional information on Taxi & Ramp Taxi Services (click here).
Group Van
Group Van is a pre-scheduled van service providing door-to-door transportation to groups of ADA eligible riders attending agency programs such as Adult Day Health Care, senior centers, or work sites.
Shop-a-Round is a convenient, low-cost shuttle that makes it easier to go grocery shopping. The service offers registered seniors and people with disabilities personalized assistance that is not available on Muni. A customer does not have to be ADA paratransit eligible to use the service. The service takes a number of customers to the store or market in San Francisco where they want to shop. The driver will help carry groceries on and off the shuttle. For more information on Shop-a-Round (click here).
Where does SF Paratransit provide service?
Service is provided throughout San Francisco, to Treasure Island, and to the northern most part of Daly City in San Mateo County. The Daly City Boundary encompasses a ¾ mile zone from any San Francisco MUNI route. Also on weekends and holidays, service is provided to the Marin Headlands along Muni's Route 76 line.
The service area does not include the San Francisco International Airport.
For trips to destinations outside of the service area, you must use other regional paratransit services, which are described in Riders' Guide 1.
If you are not sure if your trip is within the SF Paratransit service area, please call SF Paratransit at
(415) 351-7052.
How do I get information on taking Paratransit to neighboring counties?
ADA paratransit service is provided to and from neighboring counties. Please contact those individual programs for reservations, program rules and fares:
- Alameda County (East Bay Paratransit): (510) 287-5000 or (800) 555-8085
- Marin County (WhistleStop Wheels) – (800) 454-0964
- San Mateo County (Redi-Wheels) – (650) 508-6337 or (650) 508-6241
- Transit and Paratransit Information for all agencies in the Bay Area – 511 (from any area code)
If you experience a problem scheduling a ride with a paratransit service outside of San Francisco, please call our office at (415) 351-7050 to have your SF Paratransit eligibility confirmed with the other agency.
What if I leave the Bay Area and need Paratransit?
Once you are ADA-certified to use paratransit, you are also eligible to receive paratransit services in other cities and states. We suggest that prior to your trip you contact the transit agency in the city to which you are traveling. They will give you information about arrangements, fares, operating times, and schedules.

this is what happens when you keep black dick and white pussy in the same room
pauly October 14, 2010
this just proved what every man knew was true, SIZE MATTERS...i think this guy is shane diesel or something right? Well this chick basically found him to be huge at first then loved it, this cock stretched her out and she took him balls deep in ALL positions. He must be like 8 inches long and 6-6.5inches thick based on how much she took in her mouth. Now that's like 1 in 300 men or less who have that measurement. I'm only 6 inches by 4.5 and this makes me feel like shit coz girth matters as well as length. even if he wasnt a porn star chicks would be diving all over eachother to have that in them. i mean women can take fists for fucks sake and love it. So what does that do for the rest of the 98% of guys who don't possess porn star dicks?

Got to draw the line somewhere.

When does the lawyer-client relationship begin? A brief telephone or cocktail party conversation? A review of papers? A response to an e-mail? What if there was no fee charged? When does any ethical obligation arise? To some extent, general principles of contract and agency law answer these questions rather than those of professional ethics. It has long been said, however, that such a relationship is found if intent can be implied from the conduct of the client who reasonably expects that the attorney might be engaged, and information is exchanged.The inference is that the information disclosed was confidential; hence, it is presumed that the attorney is duty-bound to protect it from that point forward. Once such an initial contact takes place, whether or not a fee is charged, the lawyer becomes subject to the full panoply of ethical duties toward that client, including conflicts. To avoid a conflict with a present client, under Rule of Professional Conduct 1.7, or with a former client, under Rule 1.9, it is recommended, as a matter of ethics, professionalism and risk management, that an attorney does the following:

Grey's Anatomy Review: Listen to Your Heartby Christina Tran at . Updated at . Comments
Grey's Anatomy is finally back!
Japril fans must have been thrilled to find out that April listened to her heart and actually chose Jackson. I know I should have just accepted it from the moment April ran out of the church but I couldn't stop thinking:
Poor Matthew! Poor Stephanie!
I was glad that Japril wasn't shoved down our throats too much as the two appeared to be on non-speaking terms at the hospital. Come to find out, they were just keeping their
relationship marriage a secret. That's right! They got married. Go big, or go home, right?
As a Mapril fan, I always thought that April was much more tolerable with Matthew by her side. Surprisingly, I didn't hate seeing the newlyweds together. Now, how will their colleagues take the news? More importantly, how will Jackson's mom find out and react? I can't wait to see what she has to say.
Side note: Do you wish the writers should have shown us what exactly happened in the barn? I'm honestly kind of happy they cut to the chase. Maybe I would think otherwise if I really cared about April's decision, but I just simply didn't care enough.
On another note, I was excited to find out more about Derek and the POTUS storyline. However, it also left me a bit confused. So, not much was uncovered in the White House's investigation. Their only concern was questioning why Derek was sending $3,500 to a family for an incident that happened when he was a child.
I wanted to find out more about his project with the POTUS. Also, how will it affect his promise to Meredith? Is she going to be able to continue with her research? How will taking on this new endeavor affect their marriage and family?
Elsewhere, Alex found peace when saying goodbye to his father. That happened after he punched the crap out of Ross. Alex's final scene with his father was utterly heartbreaking. Luckily, Jo was by Alex's side in the end.
By the way, I've been rooting for Jolex forever but I'm definitely with her. That special moment outside the barn was not a proposal by any means. Come on, Alex!
Meanwhile, I don't get how buying a new home will solve all of Calzona's problems. The installment started off with Arizona sounding so sure that their marriage was over. Three weeks later and they're signing documents for a new home?! What?
Sure, Arizona explained her reasoning but I'm just not convinced that moving is the right fix for their troublesome marriage.
Other Thoughts:
- I snickered every time Bailey tried to find out more gossip and especially when she asked Ben for the scoop.
- I laughed a little harder when Ben found out that he grabbed Tucker's lunch by mistake. The countless age jokes were kind of cute. I think I'm going to like having Ben around.
- Seriously, the cat man really frightened me. I would have screamed like that little girl if I had awakened to see him so close to me as well.
- Is redemption even possible for Ross? I can't see it happening anytime soon.
- Don't forget to return early next week to chime in on our Grey's Anatomy Round Table.
Overall, Grey's Anatomy Season 10 Episode 13 answered a number of questions with April's decision at the forefront. If tonight's return was any indication, the rest of this season is going to be just as strong and will keep us on our toes.
I, for one, am especially intrigued by the potential of Stephanie's (it has to be her, right?!) complaints to the board concerning sexual harassment and want to see how the doctors deal with the repercussions.
Were you surprised by April's choice?
There were two complaints filed. One for Quid Pro Quo Sexual Harassment and one for Hostile Work Environment Sexual Harassment. Neither one seems valid as these are explained at http://www.sexualharassmentlaw... Here are the basics: A. What Must a Victim Show to Prevail on a Quid Pro Quo Sexual Harassment Claim? 1. That the plaintiff was an employee of the defendant, applied to the defendant for a job, or was a person providing services pursuant to a contract with the defendant;
2. That the alleged harasser made unwanted sexual advances to the plaintiff or engaged in other unwanted verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature;
3. That job benefits were conditioned, by words or conduct, on the plaintiff's acceptance of the alleged harasser's sexual advances or conduct; or that employment decisions affecting the plaintiff were made based on the plaintiff's acceptance or rejection of the harasser's sexual advances or conduct;
4. That at the time of the alleged harasser's conduct, the alleged harasser was a supervisor or agent for the defendant;
5. That the plaintiff was harmed; and
6. That the alleged harasser's conduct was a substantial factor in causing plaintiff's harm. A. What Must a Victim Show to Prevail on a Hostile Work Environment Sexual Harassment Claim? A victim must establish that:
1. He or she was subject to unwelcome sexual harassment;
2. The harassment was based on the victim's sex;
3. The harassment was sufficiently severe or pervasive so as to alter the conditions of employment and create an abusive working environment; and
4. The relationship between the employer and the person committing the harassing conduct is adequate to impose liability on the employer. (See Chapter Five, Employer and Individual Responsibilities for further discussion of an employer's liability for sexual harassment.) I just don't see that either of these claims works.
Actually, I re-watched the end with captions and he said it was one resident with three separate complaints. The other one was "directed sexual harassment" which I cannot find any reference to on the web. The only thing I could find was sexual harassment with "direct" contact. Still don't see anything that happened applies to any of these since everyone was reciprocal and nobody gained or lost or was promised any promotions. There also wasn't any "hostile" unwanted sexual advances or language.
It is about time someone complained about the bosses having sexual affairs with the trainees. Seriously that is so off the decency chart and would cause trouble in the "real world". I liked this turn of events.
It's so obvious that it was Shane. Shonda said that for Christina second half of the season will be very hard and I think this is it. He is able to do such tning just to save his careere
I doubt it. He knows Christina was one of the few that wanted him to come back.
Shonda likes 5 residents, Ben was an obvious shoein. I'm so happy Matthew was able to escape getting married to Kepner. Not much soul searching or guilt from Kepvery over how their actions affected others.
I'd loved to have seen more of Der's meeting. I want to see a lot of Mer being mad at Der, LOL.
Betya the zero tolerance policy will have a hiccup when Crowen have a fling again.
It wasn't the best episode but by far wasn't the worst. I wish Owen was the one that died in the plane crash, he has gotten on my nerves since he stepped off the ambulance in season 5 and just gotten worst. Last night I wanted to punch him in the face. All the interns expect Jo can leave. Shane is just a whiny idiot who doesn't deserve to be a doctor, Stephanie (while yes I do feel a little bad for her for what Jackson did) she is still super annoying, they were never meant to last she knew he still loved April so the way she is acting like he was the love of her life is annoying. And Leah well yeah she is kind of annoying too but by far the least annoying, I think it was her who filed the complaint, she was the one fired up about everything. I am happy to see that Callie and Arizona are ok, they still need ot have a talk or else things will just blow up again, but here's to hoping a better story for my couple. I love that Meredith and Christina are better and back to their normal selves cause when they were fighting it just made the show too tense cause Christina is always the one to bring the jokes with Mer and without that it was too dark. That's my 2 cents anyway
Owen said multiple times the complaint came from a "resident" so, if this is true, then it could not have been Leah or Stephanie. This should be interesting... Yayy Japril!!!
But they are residents, aren't they? They're in the resident locker room now, not the intern room. And I thought their class took the exam a while back.
I have struggled with Grey's this year... but it was nice to welcome it back.
- April and Jackson... finally! While April isn't my favorite, and think her and Jackson make an interesting couple, and their rapid elopement will probably lead us to some interesting issues throughout the remainder of this season - The rest of the interns... still so annoying, however I was glad to see Ben got thrown into the mix. It's good to have him back, I enjoy his character, and it get Bailey out of the 'crazy OCD' crappy storyline, which I really never totally got... yes, she had a bad surgery, yes it's tough to deal with... but realistic to me.. I'm glad she and Ben finally talked it through, and they seem to be on a better path... don't mess with this relationship anymore please... there needs to be at least one sort of stable one in the mix lol - Callie and Arizona... the argument at the beginning was kind of weird, but I do get the whole starting fresh since the accident situation, although I imagine it much be really tough for Callie to be moving away from her home, and all her memories of Mark Sloan... ahhh Mark... how u r missed! - Mer and Der... I think the whole POTUS vetting thing was a little weak... really the only thing that came out was that he was taking care of someone he injured by accident? But I can't help but wonder if there might be a Scandal/Grey's cross over with POTUS and Der... could be fun - Alex and Jo... seems to be going steady... I like them together... I hope Alex has finally found someone who is good for him. - HR complaint... really no more superior misconduct... how can there be a Grey's Anatomy with these kind of shenanigans? Everyone seems to be speculating that it's one of the interns launching the complaint... but I think it might be Richard Weber... how crazy would that be? He was not happy with how Owen was treating Ross... so he might be making some waves here... he did try to talk to Owen about it, who just shut him down... may be an interesting twist... Overall welcome back Grey's... even though I have been frustrated with this show more this season... it's nice to have you back! :)
Omg! I think u are right! It has to be webber!!! Omg u are a genius for figuring this out! Yes!! Especially after the blow up with Owen and seeing how he let his personal feelings interfere with teaching! So true!!! U called it! I agreed with u! Let the record show!
ANY episode that Mer doesn't cry in, is a good one. Sorry but her "cry" scenes remind me more of Bozo laughing with the croup. Personally I think it was Owen that filed a complaint.
Whew..the first five minutes of the episode was a doozy. So much was going on and everyone was arguing and yelling at each other. Then it skipped ahead three weeks and I kind of felt cheated because it never was explained what transpired in those weeks to get to where we were at that moment.
April terribly annoying. I think she should be on every flight going out of Seattle.
That's Hilarious.

I have been having problems with Turbo Tax for my 2012 IRS income taxes. It won't show up on my screen at times and keeps freezing up. Aside from that I feel like there are other issues with it not finding discounts and tax write offs that can save me money.
Do you find that using a free service like Turbo Tax is actually more expensive than using H&R block or a more pricey tax company? Maybe it's easier this way, or maybe I'm just lazy. Not sure but when I pay more and more each year in income taxes you have to wonder what's going on.

How old was LO?
Did you do it gradually or all at once?
Was there a minimum amount of milk you tried to get into LO everyday?
What was LO eating schedule once off the bottle?
My LO is not interested at all in the sippy. She does fine during meals, fine as in takes a few sips but otherwise not interested. We've tried a ton. Our pedi is adamant about getting at least 18 oz of milk/day. We barely get 16 with a bottle. I'm not going to force it and I really just think she isn't ready just yet but I'm curious as to how others did it.
Yikes. I am ashamed to admit that I am dealing with this now (just the morning and night time when she has a bottle - LO is otherwise using sippy cups). It took me a long time, but (flame away) I kept trying different sippy cups with warm milk until she liked one. now she uses a different sippy for water than milk, but at least I've finally found a sippy from Nuk that she likes the milk in. Now I have to transition her to using that sippy with her milk before bed. Honestly, I think it's more me than her - I'm in denial and need to get over it. I suspect if we just did it cold turkey, she may fuss for a few days, but then she'd get over it, like she did with the paci.
With respect to the 18 oz. of milk - my DD eats a lot of yogurt and other dairy to get a lot of milk in, but she does still have her milk first thing in the morning and right before bed!
How old was LO? 14 months when we got rid of the final before bedtime bottle.
Did you do it gradually or all at once? Gradually. We eliminated one bottle at a time and replaced it with a snack or milk until we were down to just the nighttime one. It was the last to go and hardest to get rid of as she used it as a wind down/comfort thing. Up until the last couple of weeks here we still offered her a big sippy of milk before we did bath/teeth every night. She just on her own decided she didn't want that anymore.
Was there a minimum amount of milk you tried to get into LO everyday? Not really. I try not to let her have more than about 16-20 oz, if she's getting up there I'll give her a sippy of water instead.
What was LO eating schedule once off the bottle?
6 am: breakfast
8:30 am: light snack
11:30 am: lunch
3:30 pm: snack
5:30 pm: very small snack when I pick her up to tide her over until we can get home for dinner.
7 pm: dinner
7:30 pm: sippy of milk (now gone).
How old was LO? 17 months
Did you do it gradually or all at once? We started dropping bottles around 1 year old. By 17 months he was only getting one bottle a day.
Was there a minimum amount of milk you tried to get into LO everyday? LO would only drink milk out of the bottle so he got 6oz until we cut out the last bottle. Now he drinks no milk.
What was LO eating schedule once off the bottle? Yogurt, fruit & some form of grain for breakfast. Crackers or Teddy Graham snack. Daycare lunch (ie hot dog, chicken nuggets, ghoulash, etc.) fruit & veggie. Fruit, yogurt, & veggie squeeze pouch snack. Second squeeze pouch and Teddy Graham snack. Whatever we are having for dinner (which he throws on the floor 90% of the time). Yogurt, fruit and cheerios if he refuses dinner.
He drinks water throughout the day and I just make sure he gets 2-3 servings of yogurt and calcium rich foods. I am also starting Poly Vi Sol.
How old was LO? 9.5 months
Did you do it gradually or all at once? When we found a sippy DD liked, she dropped the bottle completely on her own.
Was there a minimum amount of milk you tried to get into LO everyday? She probably gets about 12-15oz of BM a day, 10-15oz of water and eats tons of dairy products. I let her dictate how much she wants.
What was LO eating schedule once off the bottle? During the week (I work FT)- BF at 6ish, Breakfast ~8-9, BF ~11-12, lunch ~ 12-1 , snack ~3-4, dinner ~ 5:30-6:30, BF ~8. DD chooses if she wants BM or water with her breakfast or lunch. She's a grazer and so we leave food and drinks readily available for her.
When I told my pedi that DD was refusing WCM, his reply was "can't blame her". Since she still BF's plenty and loves cheese, he wasn't worried. Have you tried making some smoothies? Flavoring the milk? Letting your LO pick the sippy herself?
we got rid of the bottle cold turkey at 12 months, about a week after his birthday. Once we finally found a sippy he would drink from, the NUK ones, then we just stopped offering a bottle all together. He drinks about 15-20oz of milk a day along with cheeses and yogurt. Our pedi said including all dairy like yogurt etc minimum of 16oz a day. LO has been having breakfast around 730 am with a 7oz sippy of milk, snack w/ water, lunch with 5oz of milk, snack with water & 2oz of juice, and then dinner. Between dinner and bed he drinks about 7oz of milk from a sippy. He doesnt always finish his milk and I dont force it as long as LO generally eats balanced meals of fruits veggies dairy & grains, having 16oz a milk a day is not that important if they are drinking water to stay hydrated.
I wouldnt stress about the sippy, LO will get rid of the bottle when they are ready there is no reason to push it unless they are nearing 2 years old for dental reasons.

Is Dr. Thomas Le really good at revisions as people claim he is?
I'm considering Dr. Frankel and Dr. Thomas Le...but I'm still unsure. Anyone have an opinion? I'm hearing some good things about Dr. Thomas Le on another board so I wanted to see if anyone here has anymore info.
I think we've read the same board. There are some pretty effusive (albeit not unanimous) comments about Thomas Le out there.
I'll note this much, take it for what it's worth: I've been scheduling a number of consults with various NY surgeons; the longest I've had to wait to see someone was two weeks. It turns out Le's schedule, meanwhile, is booked up for two months. And apparently his earliest opening for surgery is in October, with appointments going into next year. So either he golfs six days a week, or he's a pretty popular guy. I was also quoted a comparatively low price for revision (~10K), although I'll believe that when I have the estimate in hand.
LMAO golfs six days a week
I found humor in Norms comment
Intentionally so. Glad you enjoyed. :) The point is that he appears to be doing a booming business. Or perhaps he's the only "name" surgeon in the Baltimore/DC area, although I couldn't really speak to that.
Hello, Have you had your revision? Which doctor did you choose. I am choosing between these two doctors also. Please let me know thanks
I am unfamiliar with using these sites, so If i make a mistake reponding forgive me. If you are considering between Dr Le and Dr. Anyone Else, your choice should be Dr. Le. If you want a surgeon who is talented, and gifted and won't settle for anything less than the best that can be done in each individual circumstance, then he is your man. You cannot be in better hands.
The bigger mistake is not having gone to him for the first surgery. He has a wonderful reputation for revisions, but it leaves him trying to fix what other surgeons have botched.
I have a daughter who had ear reconstructive surgery six years ago. She did her own research as a minor and came to me with his name and insisted that she wanted him to do her work.(this is when he was at University of MD Hospital) I only visited his office to placate her, with the intention of seeing other surgeons after I did my own search. At the first visit, I just knew, we were in the best hands possible. He is thorough in his research and approach. He is caring, considerate and wouldn't do anything that he didn't think he could handle. He was honest regarding his concerns and what could be done within the limits of reality. He gave NO false hopes of what could be possible and wasn't.
He was attentive, caring, and meticulous to a fault. His post-operative care is the same. A minor in-office surgical procedure was completed 2 years post surgery to just 'tweak' and improve the esthetics of one of her ears. They look like she was born with them. You would NEVER know she had a surgery to repair or improve her ears.
Because of my experience with Dr. Le, I referred a friend to him for a rhinoplasty repair. She went to a plastic surgeon first who did a little of everything. Everything!!! no specialty and they botched her nose!! It is unfortunate, but Dr. Le got stuck with another revision. Of course, when talking to my friend, she can easily compare her experience between one surgeon the other, and only laments not having her primary surgery with Dr. Le.
Finally, and sorry this is so long, most recently I had another daughter who had a surgery with Dr. Le for a primary rhinoplasty. There was much internal repair to septum deviation.....etc, and then an esthetic repair externally.
Six years ago with one daughter, and now with another, my opinion of the man just gets better. He is an amazing surgeon, with gifted hands and talent. He studies his patient, the photos and has a well mapped-out plan before he ever steps into the OR. None of his work is 'cookie-cutter'. He treats you like you are the ONLY patient/person/thing that matters when he is working with you. I talked to the nurses in recovery. They feel the same. He is highly regarded and thought of among his peers and the surgical and recovery team that he works with.
I write this because I feel strongly about our family experience with Dr. Le. You couldn't be in better hands.

We just witnessed the second inauguration of President Obama. After such a long, divisive election process, it was nice to have a moment to come together. And while some might cynically say the moment lasted the 30 seconds it took him to repeat the oath of office, one thing is true: Americans have different beliefs, cultures, religions, ideologies, etc. but somehow it works. E pluribus unum.
In contrast, we worry there isn't enough common ground for the European Union to rally around in order to deal with your challenges. Take a look at how Greece's economic policies differ from Germany's. Greece has embraced decades of unsustainable public spending. Germany applies more thrift and budgetary rigor, paying taxes and promoting monetary stability. How do these policies get reconciled? Can the Greeks ever be more like Germans?
They probably need to be. Germany and the United States have similar jobless rates, 6.9% and 7.9%, respectively. These aren't great, but Greece and Spain are now both over 26%. That is staggering. Not to mention that in both countries, more than 50% of those under 25 are unemployed. The last thing the EU needs is unemployed, politically disillusioned, angry youths rioting in the streets.
Theo Moore
Old World unity is oddly youthful. We stopped fighting each other in 1945; you stopped in 1865. Your foundational Constitution is late 18th century but we got the Treaty of Lisbon in 2007 and the Treaty of Rome 50 years before that. We're messy, incomplete, recent. The Berlin Wall only came down in 1989 and ten of our current Member States came from "the other side" of the Cold War. But we're not as fragmented as you think. Greeks are Greeks and Germans are Germans but there are common histories and values across Europe. Ask Athenians or Berliners if they think balanced accounts, transparent politics, citizens paying taxes and a strong economy are good things. Europe is forging its "national economic identity" without detouring via Bull Run or Gettysburg. We're comfortable that Greece will never be Germany because Portugal has neighboured Spain forever and they're still hilariously different. We find common ground around a social market model; yes even Britain, even after Thatcher. Gerhard Schröder's "carrot and stick" (Agenda 2010) made Germany what it is today by emphasizing both freedom and responsibility; pay hasn't risen much, productivity has. Building this balanced model isn't easy or pleasant but it is what we're doing.
(Oh and I can't resist: the first king of Greece was a German…)
We're hopeful for you, but getting mixed signals. On the one hand, we hear Angela Merkel at Davos, expressing assurance over more European integration. On the other, we continue to wonder whether Greece will leave the Eurozone. And now, what about the UK? My obsession with Downton Abbey notwithstanding, a European Union without Britain seems unworkable. What's needed now is action. Europe needs to move toward a more distinct federal structure, giving the EU's executive arm more power to govern.
(PS, Germans are everywhere among us. Queen Elizabeth – German. The Presidents Bush — German. Even Barack Obama has German roots.)
Final Point:
I'll confess I thought Greece would go but for now it looks stable(-ish). Today Brussels fears Brexit over Grexit. Cameron's much delayed speech has lit a fuse. If 11 million Greeks leaving would threaten the EU's future, what about 63 million Brits?
Re. federal structure, remember that FTT? It'll be the first ever European tax. Sure, it's only 11 countries but includes France and Germany. And a Banking Union is forming up, meaning the ECB will now supervise around 150 European banks, not national authorities.
We still need a resolution plan and to establish if the Eurozone is a transfer union, but there's more than one way of being federal, surely?

Heritage Breeds
Rare heritage breeds of livestock embody valuable genetic resources that can only be preserved through the continued stewardship of their kinds. We have a passion for preserving these living pieces of history.
In an era when it has become common practice for farms to rely completely on industrialized systems to supply livestock, we are striving to maintain small healthy breeding populations of a few rare breeds to keep them available as a resource for farmers and homesteaders. Breeding on the farm presents its own set of challenges that contribute to our production costs. However, we feel the effort is worthwhile so that these breeds can continue to exist and so that our animals can meet the highest level of quality.
Animals from our farm can be seen at living history museums including the Claude Moore Colonial Farm at Turkey Run, the Frontier Culture Museum and the Yorktown Victory Center.
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our customers who purchased Thanksgiving turkeys in 2013. You played a vital roll in preserving rare breeds by provided the funds necessary to carry our breeding animals through the winter.
Our farm is home to the following rare breeds:
The classic American Thanksgiving turkey, this breed dates to the colonial period and was the pre-curser to the commercialized Broad-breasted Bronze turkey. Unlike the Broad-breasted variety, the Standard Bronze is long-lived, hardy and can reproduce naturally. They are voracious foragers and will keep a field mowed and de-bugged. Because they grow at a natural rate, taking at least six to eight months to reach butcher weight, these turkeys are the best you will ever taste. It closely resembles its ancestor, the Eastern Wild turkey, in conformation, but has a more domesticated personality. Standard Bronze turkeys also make great pets that will live for many years. We are actively engaged in the preservation of this breed through our breeding program. Read more…
Purchasing Live Turkeys:
If you are interested in purchasing live turkeys for breeding stock or pets, we usually have some available in the Fall. Mature turkeys are $75 each for toms and hens. Poults are available in limited quantity in the Spring for $10 each, straight run. All birds must be picked up on the farm. We do not ship birds. Contact us for availability.
It was through the efforts of Mark See, Phil Sponnenberg, Dr. Tom Walker and the ALBC that this breed was saved from the brink of extinction, and they are still listed as critically endangered by the ALBC. Believed to be descended from stock brought to America from England in the seventeenth-century, these geese were used for meat, eggs, grease and weeding cotton and cornfields on farms throughout the southeast until about the 1950s. Their numbers began to decline as farms became more mechanized, and by the 1980s only a few isolated populations could be found. One of the few auto-sexing breeds of geese (males and females can be identified by color, even at hatch), Cotton Patch geese are docile and retain the ability to fly. We use our geese as weeders in the garden and are actively engaged in the preservation of the breed through our breeding program. Read more…
Purchasing Live Geese:
Goslings are available each Spring. They are $50 each and sold in pairs or trios. We try to match unrelated pairs that can be raised for breeding since Cotton Patch Geese can be sexed at hatch by color. Mature breeding pairs are occasionally available and are $250 each. Sorry, we do not ship geese, they must be picked up on the farm. Contact us to be placed on our waiting list for goslings.
Dorking chickens are an ancient breed originating from England. They were very common on early American farms, but have now become exceptionally rare. They are of a heavy build with short legs and have traditionally been esteemed as an exceptional table fowl. Dorkings are cold hardy, and retain natural mothering instincts. Exactly when Dorking chickens arrived in America is a bit of a mystery. We do know they were well distributed here before 1840, and were even shown at the first poultry show in America in 1849. By 1904 they were the most popular breed in their native England. We are actively engaged in the preservation of this breed through our breeding program. Read more…
Purchasing Live Chickens:
We have limited numbers of Dorkings available for sale during the year. Chicks are $6 each. Older birds are priced according to their age. All birds must be picked up on the farm. We do not ship birds. Contact us for availability.
The only breed of sheep to originate from Virginia, and one of the few feral populations found in the world, these are descended from sheep brought to Hog Island during the colonial period. The population remained isolated for centuries and was shaped through natural selection rather than human intervention. They are considered a good representation of historic sheep of the colonial period. The breed is listed as critically endangered by the ALBC. We are actively engaged in the preservation of this breed through our breeding program. Read more…
We are a member of The Livestock Conservancy, the pioneer, non-profit organization in the U.S. organization working to conserve historic breeds and genetic diversity in livestock.
