November 18, 20196 yr My fave as a kid.... WHAT PARENTS NEED TO KNOW Parents need to know that Harold and the Purple Crayon is a classic children's book first published in 1955 that features a calm, upbeat but mostly silent little boy who creates his surroundings with his ever-present purple crayon. He makes up his own fun, and even gets scared by some of his drawings: He's chased by a dragon he draws, he falls off a mountain he draws, he has to draw a boat to save himself from drowning in the sea he accidentally draws. Successive generations have enjoyed Harold's inventive adventures. Harold and the Purple Crayon is a wonderful celebration of imagination and independent play that also has been adapted for an animated HBO Family TV series and is available as an app. The 60th anniversary edition, released in October 2015, has a larger (6 1/4 by 7 3/4) size.

Thing is: I'm not the smartest guy in the world but I'm not an idiot either. I understand my role in this process which is basically: (1) Understand that you don't know what she's going through and never will, and (2) Just listen and try to help out however you can. I should probably add another rule to remember: (3) The temperature in the house is always subject to change. This morning it was "too cold" and by the time we finished breakfast it was "I'm burning up!" 3 hours ago, Lilly said: If you are congratulations to you both. When is baby boo due x Thanks. The little one should be here by late-June, possibly early-July of 2020
November 24, 20196 yr It gets easier...the second trimester is pretty good...emotions improve (first trimester I cried for an hour over a toilet paper ad on the telly...and not delicate crying, no it was snotty sobby crying) and so does the fatigue...those first few months are shocking...I have never felt so tired in my life as I did first trimester.

And just know that when you think you have figured it all out, the baby arrives. You will be so in love with that new bundle, you both will have fun figuring it out!
November 26, 20196 yr Every new dad needs to learn the new mumma landmines...here are 2 options when the stretchmarks comments come... Or this might be more Sugar Britches.. Your welcome.
November 26, 20196 yr Keep Sugar Britches' belly WELL emolliated with coconut oil ALL THE TIME starting yesterday. Also her perineum and surrounding tissues !
November 26, 20196 yr Please ! A shard of decorum, @jillar ? Nah. There ain't much decorum involved in birthin' babies.
November 26, 20196 yr Probably not going to mention it to Sugar Britches that her taint is being discussed here.
November 26, 20196 yr I went to school in England before coming to Aussie Land, The Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton was a favorite, along with Tom and the Water Babies, by Charles Kingsley. I loved reading Dr Seuss to my kids when they were little boys, I thought they were hilarious so did the kids.
