Btdt moms: traveling with baby??
Hallie Grace born on 2/15/13
Loving my little Family<3
Atreyu Morgan : 11/1/10, 6lbs 11oz, 19 in!
Justice Rose: 2/1/13. 8lbs 2oz, 19 in!
I was on planes a ton with my monkey when he was small, and usually solo.
So easy to travel with a 2 month old. I suggest baby-wearing and if you breastfeed, you'll be super glad. Pack a normal diaper bag + a couple of extra diapers. Keep snacks for you in your jacket pockets (and anything else you might need like a binky if you use one) - you won't be able to easily access your bag on the plane with a baby. Don't forget to stay hydrated. I recommend checking the car seat with your normal luggage instead of hauling it around. At 2 months, you won't feel like you are at a disadvantage to not have the car seat. Breastfeed on take-off and landing. Bring a normal pillow (not a travel boppy ot travel pillow). If you lay it flat on your lap and have a window seat, you'll have a space enclosed on three sides.
""👈 this shit isnt the punctuation worlds version of jazz hands goddamnit
Great advice so far. I second the feeding on take-off and landing.
At security, declare any liquids you are carrying on for yourself or for baby (water, milk, meds). TSA will allow more than 3oz, just be sure to declare. Allow a little extra time in security in case TSA wants to pat you down.
Be sure to pack an extra shirt for you in your diaper bag in case baby spits on you. Keep the diaper bag at your feet (not in the overhead bin). Stuff some little plastic bags in your diaper bag for diaper disposal as you may not always be near a trashcan.
I've never been on a domestic flight that had a changing table in the lavatory. If I didn't have time to change DD before boarding, I would try to board with first class, and then quickly change her right on the seat before other passengers boarded.
Have fun on the trip!
Mom to 1 princess and 3 amazing boys....and my suprize boy 6/13/15
My advice to you is to talk to your pediatrician about your planned trip. I think 2 or 3 months is the earliest that it is recommended to fly with a newborn because of all the germs on commercial flights. I understand if you don't have a choice in the matter, but I just wanted to point out that there are health risks involved, in case as a FTM you weren't already aware of this. GL.
I flew with my son at about 2.5 weeks. Pedi said it was fine.
""👈 this shit isnt the punctuation worlds version of jazz hands goddamnit
Bring several extra outfits and more diapers than you think you need. When we traveled with ds at 4 months, he pooped out of every outfit I carried on (3-4 total - the first in the security line on our way to the gate). Carry plastic bags for soiled clothes.
It was really easy when he was a baby (minus the poop). I nursed him at take off and he slept the whole time.

Blind dog's special technique to play fetch with owners
Kellar the dog was born blind four years ago but owners Marcy Stapley and her fiance Mike Miller have a developed a way for the springer spaniel to play fetch.
The couple from Petersburg, Ontario said despite Kellar's blindness, it did not dissuade his basic doggy instincts to play.
"He was really interested in playing. He tried to chase things at the dog park, but he couldn't find them," Stapely told New York Daily News.
In the video Kellar can be seen using voice commands and his sense of smell to fetch a rubber duck in the park.
Through a period of trial and error, they can command Kellar to play fetch by saying the word "listen" before throwing an item and then saying "hot" in a high excited voice if he gets close to the object, and "cold" in a quieter voice when he is too far away.

Barcham is a well reputed supplier of established trees. Personally, for such a long term investment, I would prefer to go and visit them and choose the individual trees myself. They are located at Eye Hill Drove, Cambridgeshire, CB7 5XF. Perhaps turn it into a weekend away?
Anyone use one of the Hawes Professional Long Reach watering cans? Ive wanted one for a while as it would be great for in the boarders, but not sure if the long spout would be a hinerance when using in the patio?
Little weeeed wrote (see)
I have the oriental poppies in my garden pots (all pink except for one purple one!) But no red ones. If I want some for the 100 yrs remembrance, where it's the best place to buy? I have never seen a packet of seeds for them on their own.

Thompson & Morgan sell the wild red poppy (Papaver rhoeas) seeds
So do Crocus...
My Clematis Piilu is doing well as it scrambles amongst the Honeysuckle...
But when my tall Mongolian Sunflowers begin flowering I think they will take over...
Thanks. I will try and prepare the area (currently poor lawn) and get some seeds sown.
I once upturned a medium sized terracota plantpot and stufed a layer of moss from my lawn inside it. Later that summer I noticed bees (bumble?) were going in & out through the drainage hole at the top. I assumed they were nesting.
Good advice Gairygirl. I would like 4 plants, so Ive ordered just 2 from the offer and will look around for another 2 later in the year. Thanks.
Also I notice Tescos stores are doing the 2 x Box balls for £20 offer again. Might grab a couple tonight.
Groupon are offering 2 x Buxus Pyramid plants for £35, or 4 x plants for £65. They are in 3 litre pots with an overall height of 55cm.
At first I thought this was a cracking deal, but once ive deducted the height of the pots, I guess the plants will only be about 35cm tall?
What do you think. Good deal or not?
Thanks. So if I want teaditional red poppies for next year then do I have to sow the seeds this year or next?

Bronson re-creates real-life murderer Albert Johnson, the object of the greatest manhunt in Mountie history; Marvin plays a constable who died pursuing him in 1932. Hard-guy Marvin, whose uncle trekked toward the pole with Admiral Peary in 1909, seemed to relish the threat of avalanches and the rope-scaling down icy cliffs in the sub-zero cold. Bronson, equally undaunted but less enthralled, called it "the most rugged location I've ever been on."
O.J.'s new squeeze
"I can't believe it, is this all for me?" squealed Melissa Michaelsen, the tiny blond star of NBC's new Me and Maxx, when her parents threw a surprise 12th-birthday party for her at the studio. Indeed it was, and the final fillip, the icing on the cake, so to speak, was the surprise appearance of O.J. Simpson, who had come to collect—and give—a squeeze. The two had become fast friends when they paired last fall in the TV movie Goldie and the Boxer, which had Melissa playing an orphan who starts out as fighter Simpson's ward and winds up his take-charge manager. Said the Juice of Melissa, oozing words many an older woman would love to hear: "I really dig her."
Somers' latest flap
Launching her maiden cabaret act in Vegas, Suzanne Somers sought to "humanize" her sexpot image with $35,000 in costumes including her own Big Bird rig (to spoof a chicken noodle soup spot). Suzanne hoofed, chirped and traded Q&A's with the audience during her 40-minute act, winning approving clucks from fans and critics. But she really played chicken before the curtain rose premiere night. Turning away even friends backstage, Somers issued a terse and personal communiqué: "Suzanne will be busy vomiting."
Miller takes emergency measures
"These days most economists' predictions are wrong," says Treasury Secretary William Miller. So when his newly appointed assistant secretary for economic policy, Curtis Hessler, warned he might have to cancel his own swearing-in with wife Christine due to give birth, Miller scoffed. Sure enough, on the appointed day Christine was rushed to the hospital. Undeterred, Miller sped there the next day himself to perform the ceremony, with both men in scrub coats as Mom and 18-hour-old Alexander witnessed. Said Miller: "From now on I'll listen with more respect to your forecasts."
Hawn in command
A month after wrapping her part as a Gl in Private Benjamin (she was also executive producer), Goldie Hawn took part in a real-life military maneuver—at an L.A. eatery. She was tapped to pin the silver oak leaves on freshly promoted Lt. Col. Dennis Foley, the film's technical adviser. Foley was surprised when his real commanding officer stepped back and Goldie stepped up to do the honors. She soon had Foley at ease with a kiss and a bubbly two-glass salute.
Diff'rent hulks
Gary Coleman got picked on by someone decidedly not his own size while vacationing in Honolulu. It was no mere bully however, but 6'4", 417-pound Jesse Kuhaulua, Hawaii's eminent sumo wrestler. Kuhaulua was visiting the state capital building, where Coleman was sightseeing with his parents. Spying the 47" NBC star, Kuhaulua lived up to his official sumo name, Takamiyama—High-Seeing Mountain. Indeed, Coleman wasn't about to try his own Diff'rent Strokes strength—zingers—on Kuhaulua. His grin said it all: You're Ichiban—Number One.
Giscard's choice
If Americans consider French President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing myopic for his lack of solidarity in the Afghanistan crisis, sure enough, he had some difficulty seeing the feature Prix du Président race at France's Auteuil steeplechase. It was his first visit there since taking office and, slow in noting the start, Giscard had further difficulty when his binoculars strap proved too short as he tried to adjust them. But he did see a U.S.-bred horse named Reasonable Choice take first place. Doubtless that had been Giscard's pick—Reasonable Choice was his party's slogan during his own successful Prix du President race in 1974.

Wood Flooring Newsletter – June 2015
Clear expectations result in customer satisfaction, referrals, and return customers. Below you'll find the story of Wagner Meters' 50 year journey and a tool for setting clear expectations with your customers prior to the installation process.
How Long Does It REALLY Take to Acclimate Flooring?
Contrary to popular belief, it has less do with the amount of time you should let flooring sit to acclimate on the job site, and more to do with monitoring the moisture content of various components.
Setting Your Customers' Expectation
Setting clear expectations with your customers increases the chances of customer satisfaction during and after the flooring installation. Wagner has provided this easy-to-use tool for contractors to use upon the sale of a flooring installation to set those clear expectations.
Wagner Meters Celebrates 50 Year Anniversary
This year marks Wagner Meters' 50th anniversary, a special time to give thanks to our many loyal customers in the flooring industry. Did you know that Wagner Meters is a family-run business? Read the whole story here as told by grandson, Eric Wagner.

A very interesting place
5.0 of 5 starsReviewed October 28, 2015
A wonderful layout, the space forces to strategic game. The state, despite several days of heavy rain before very good.
The use of a buggy is strongly recommended, since the place is hilly and must be completed also very long distances between the holes.

Heavy, but nice. Oddly, the situated behind every tee Waste Area is. One has to beat 150 m far to have the ball at all in the game usually already. Errors are thus hardly forgiven. Trotdem an experience. Without Buggey but not recommended!

"Carlton Freeman from Harleyville was minding his own business while going down the side of the road in his wheelchair, at Spring Branch and Dunnings Road, when he was attacked by a pack of dogs."
So begins the Dorchester County Coroner's statement about the tragic death of Freeman.
"Mr. Freeman was a bi-lateral amputee at the knees, from a previous injury years ago, and reported to EMS that he was pulled from his wheelchair by his legs as he tried to fight off the dogs," continued Coroner Christopher D. Nisbet. "He also stated that they all where biting him and pulling at his clothes.
"EMS transported Mr. Freeman to Trident Hospital, where he was admitted to ICU, and died as a result of his injuries from the attack, on May 12 at 11:25 a.m.
"Upon my examination of Mr. Freeman, it is a wonder that this gentleman was able to hang on as long as he did. He had bites and lacerations from his legs to the top of his head. This is very sad story, but even worse that Mr. Freeman was basically helpless to the attack, due to being a bi-lateral amputee. The DCSD is investigating this incident."
The 80-year-old Freeman was attacked on May 8 by four brown dogs, according to the Dorchester County Deputies who responded.
Deputies along with Dorchester County Animal Control were able to capture three of the animals and are still trying to locate and capture the fourth.
The case is under investigation by the Criminal Investigations Unit of the Dorchester County Sheriff's Office.

Primetime special to herald Grammy nominations announcement
For the second consecutive year, the nominations for the Grammy Awards will be announced live during a primetime special. "The Grammy Nominations Concert Live!!-Countdown to Music's Biggest Night" will air live Dec. 2 at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.
The one-hour special, beamed from Club Nokia in Los Angeles, will feature musicians announcing nominations in such top categories as album, single, record and new artist of the year, as well as include performances by several top artists.
The 52nd Annual Grammy Awards will take place Jan. 31 from Los Angeles' Staples Center. The awards were moved up a few weeks so as not to compete over viewers with the Winter Olympics or the Super Bowl. Doing so also meant that the eligibility period for projects shifted from Oct. 1-Sept. 30 to Oct. 1 to Aug. 31 for this term.
The announcements for the 51st Grammy awards took place during a primetime concert in December 2007 featuring John Mayer, Taylor Swift and Mariah Carey. The hour-long special came in fourth in its time slot, drawing around 7 million viewers. Portnow told me (in a story for Variety) last January that the nominations show was "a good solid beginning...It created an awareness level that we hadn't had."

Want to Buy a Franchise? See What Survey Says
Discerning investors who want unvarnished information about a franchise before buying often peruse blogs for franchisees' gripes or concerns. Now, there's another item to consult: the franchisee-satisfaction survey.
At least two firms, Franchise Research Institute and Franchise Business Review, query existing franchisees in dozens of systems on their satisfaction levels and publish the results of those polls on their Web sites. Such research – typically funded by the franchise itself – may be a telling indication of how well a franchise system is working, or whether it should be avoided. The reports can be purchased for $24.95 on Franchise Research Institute's site, www.fransurvey.com, but are available for free on Franchise Business Review's, www.franchisebusinessreview.com, if franchisers agree to post them.
Both firms survey franchisees on a confidential basis, to assure them they won't be identified and possibly punished for expressing their true feelings. Both also seek to survey most of a system's franchisees to verify that the opinions are representative rather than those of a few grouches.
Although the questions they ask are similar – including the crucial "would you recommend this franchise to others?" -- the firms' approaches differ. Franchise Research Institute charges the franchiser involved before undertaking the survey; Franchise Business Review collects a fee after doing the research, if the franchiser wants to see what it found.
Both firms affix stamps of approval on franchisers whose franchisees generally endorse their systems. The Franchise Research Institute awards a "world-class franchisee" seal whereas the Franchise Business Review hands out "Best of the Best" citations.
Franchise companies fund the surveys partly to use the results – if positive – to recruit new franchisees. But often, the surveys can reveals cracks in the system that's useful information to proactive franchise managers and potential investors alike.
"Some surveys will give extremely bad news to a CEO and a company's owners," says Jeff Johnson, president of Franchise Research Institute in Lincoln, Neb. One common issue is a franchise system that's rapidly growing. "That causes all kinds of concerns among franchisees," including haphazard support from field personnel, he says. If a franchise isn't listed on the Institute's site, a potential franchisee should ask the franchiser whether it has been graded, and what the results were, Mr. Johnson adds.
Eric Stites, who founded Franchise Business Review and runs it out of an office in Kittery, Maine, says that occasionally a franchiser he approaches with a survey pitch will turn him down. "If they have an issue they will try to squash a survey," he says.
While he gave out 115 awards to franchises last year, and posts some of them on his site, Mr. Stites says that 80% of the franchises operating today "are simply average or below-average business opportunities." Fast-food restaurant and automotive-related franchises often score near the bottom in his franchise-satisfaction surveys, he adds. Even so, his site recently posted a list of 11 "top food franchises."
"A lot of dissatisfaction in franchising comes from [franchisers] not meeting initial expectations, which are typically set during the sales process…by overly-aggressive salespeople, unfortunately," Mr. Stites says. On the other hand, companies with the highest franchisee satisfaction scores typically "don't oversell their systems – in many cases they undersell it -- and are very selective in their recruitment process," he says.
For their part, franchisers who get disappointing approval ratings say the surveys often guide their decision-making and can lead to better operations.
For example, when Great Harvest Bread Co. , a Dillon, Mont., bakery chain, got a significantly lower score in its Franchise Research Institute survey several years ago than it had previously, the company's executives realized they had responded too slowly to the low-carb craze.
"We had taken the position that we sell carbohydrates for a living," recalls company president and chief executive Mike Ferretti. "But our customers were saying, 'We'll go someplace else. Many of us are no longer eating what you sell.' " As a consequence, the chain introduced a low-carb bread that remains a popular item. "Franchisees were right about our head-in-the-sand attitude," Mr. Ferretti says. That experience "taught us a very valuable lesson."
