20 Month Old Son Still Sleeping in Our Bed...

I know I may get some real honest opinions on here but maybe thats what I need. Our son has basically slept with us since the day he came home from the hospital-with the exception of hime being in the bassinet or pack and play when he was really tiny. He is now 20 months old and still sleeps in our bed. My MIL keeps telling me to not let him, that he needs his own bed (which he has), etc... Problem is I have no issues with him being in the bed.

Finger Food for 14 Month Old & Sippy Cups

I have a 14 month old daughter who is a picky eater. I feel like I feed her the same things over and over every day. I can't find any vegetables she likes.

Cleaning Service - Costs and Recommendations in San Ramon

I've never had a housekeeper clean my house before but I work full time and have infant twins so it's time. I found a great cleaner but this morning I choked on my Wheaties when she quoted me $250.00 per service for every other week on a 2200 square foot house with 2.5 bathrooms.
