✏ Rules

  1. DO NOT DOXX YOUR KIDS - Seriously, use an alt for this comm or keep it vague; otherwise we’re centralizing info about everyone’s kids into a single place that can be easily focused on.
  2. No jokes about dead kids - I don't care how much the romanovs deserved it, or how right John Brown was, save it for another comm.
  3. No antinatalism struggle sessions

My kid and my best and oldest friend's kid are similar ages, 3 going on 4. The other day was the first time they actually were 'hanging out' and actually playing with eachother rather than near eachother (or running in opposite directions, like usual)

Very fucking cool. Seeing our kids become friends and having my kid say "I miss my best friend" before passing out in the carseat on the way home was truly amazing

Took the kids to their first Gaza rally. There were a lot of people and they had no idea what was going on but they took it well.

I found a spot next to a marching band to plop them down so they got to hit a wooden spoon against a saucepan and they shouted 'Gaza' through a megaphone.

We're going to be switching over to formula (from 100% breastmilk) soon for for Baby Beaver. Anyone have recommendations for brands to try out?

We used Emfamil for both kids, I don't think there was any real reason why we went with Enfamil over others. I think we had to switch to another brand due to a lactose issue one of the kids had for a time, but that cleared up and we switched back.
