omg. Bryan actually implied that the projector helps Ollie use his imagination more vs just looking at books and being read too. The projector is like the antithesis of imagination.

Use rain gutters. Cute, you can customize the length, amount and can even do corners. Plus, it's WAY cheaper.ProSubscriber wrote:I remembered seeing the clear bookshelves a long time ago and thought they were cool, but when I looked them up the price was outrageous.
I just looked them up again and the set of 2 is $199.

Oliver's room does not look good for a two year old. I can't wait for the vlog where Oliver breaks the lamp and missy still claims he's a calm child. And his room looks so small with the new bed it basically goes from wall to wall same with the bed Missy's room.

Re: Daily Bums- DailyDetachedParenting Part 32
Oh yeah I forgot to mention that!! I have this one app for my son, you get a free dr Seuss book a week, digital. And it'll read to you and flip the page for you, which initially I thought was neat. But then I realized it was like a tiny cartoon to him. Nothing like reading a book. I'm not against letting my son watch cartoons from PBS or other "educational" programming, but I realized immediately that digital books that read to you in no way can replace a real book.ProSubscriber wrote:omg.

It causes the child to just be zombified, much like he is infront of the TV and iPad.

What can we really expect from bryan when he relies so heavily on electronics. He Actually thinks the projector will do good for Oliver. I hope they realize soon that they are setting Oliver up to fail by barely interacting with him while constantly throwing him Infront of electronics all the time.ProSubscriber wrote:omg.

Bryan, we know you read here....ProSubscriber wrote:omg. Bryan actually implied that the projector helps Ollie use his imagination more vs just looking at books and being read too. The projector is like the antithesis of imagination.
This is stupid. Don't let Missy tell you that this is good for him imagination. You love Harry Potter, right? Ok, imagine instead of getting the books as they come out and getting lost in that beautiful descriptive world in your imagination... you instead watched the movies or had sketches in front of you of what you were seeing marring your ability to imagine things for yourself. You know the projector is horribly lazy. It will come at the expense of your bond with Ollie, and his intellectual development. If Missy is too busy to READ to Oliver (no projector), then please do it yourself.
2 is still a baby, even if you build them a "big boy room' and start calling them independent. If you have no interest in teaching him, then put him in daycare and let them teach him there. He doesn't need fancy rooms and more stuff. He needs more connections and security. It isn't a good thing that he adjusts that easily. It's alarming for him to not have ANY attachments. He needs to learn it's ok to like what he likes... even if it doesn't fit him mom's "picture perfect" view of things.

Re: Daily Bums- DailyDetachedParenting Part 32
Yeah. I'm nervous when it comes to rain gutters, wood pallets, and PVC pipes that people use for kids' DIY. They often contain phthalates, lead and other things a kid shouldn't be in frequent contact with. My favourite DIY shelves are the fabric + curtain rods, and spice racks. They're also super cheap.HelloSweetie1 wrote:Use rain gutters. Cute, you can customize the length, amount and can even do corners.

I can't wait till Ollie gets into the diaper rash ointment and spreads it everywhere one night. They are morons.

I thought Scott Sandler was a crazy minion?? They posted something that actually made sense!! Haha.ashley0120 wrote:[img]//images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/08/31 ... 775db2.jpg[/img]
Is it bad that I laughed so hard when Ollie hit Bryan? And I snorted when Bryan told Oliver to be sorry but didn't even tell him what he's sorry for! He's not going to learn by the time Finley arrives and they are running out of time!

Re: Daily Bums- DailyDetachedParenting Part 32
Lol she barely dressed up Ollie when she was in the hospital, Suzanne was the one changing his clothes and diaper, even held him when the doctors would come and check on him. The only time you saw Princess Missy hold Ollie was when she was breastfeeding him.Amelia322 wrote:SO SHES excited to dress fin up and not hold him and kiss him and cuddle him?

Re: Daily Bums- DailyDetachedParenting Part 32
WTF. How did you find this? It's almost IDENTICAL. I'm so confused. Did Missy find it online/Pinterest and make Bry Bry copy it?? How did they even find all the same items???HelloSweetie1 wrote:No, they didn't. http://fantabulosity.com/home-tour-part ... decor-boy/Amelia322 wrote:COME ON THEY IN NO WAY designed this! We know they have no style look at his last 3 nurseries !!! They had no style look at their living space havaha!! They totally hired someone!!! I can bet on that lol
Bryan ordered all the stuff and put it up. That's why he did the tour. Missy did literally NOTHING. I still think the idea is awful. Know what would have been cute? They could have kept her "Woodland" theme and added a tent, canoe, the moose, pictures etc. Then it would have been a real camping/adventure theme.
Maybe make a visit to an outdoor store and have a look around for inspiration

I just looked them up again and the set of 2 is $199.
I don't feel that great about the Ubabub either though. Expensive and it's acrylic and nowhere could I find info on how it's safe. I mean, the website says their products are, but nothing specific to those shelves. Even the acrylic cribs specify the timber is safe, but not the acrylic. Makes me skeptical. I might pay the $200 if it were more clear.
I think B&M picked them for the modern design though, not because of safety or eco concerns

Re: Daily Bums- DailyDetachedParenting Part 32
Lol. I found it because I wanted a closer look at the "Moose" to see if it was actually supposed to be a moose, an elk, etc. I wanted to see the side profile because it just doesn't look right to me.FJ_Lanning wrote:WTF.

Re: Daily Bums- DailyDetachedParenting Part 32
Did they choose that theme so they wouldn't have to paint his walls? The theme doesn't seem like it would be fun for a toddler.
