What's a Good Career for an Educated, Experienced Mom Whose Priority Is Family?

Hello Ladies, I'm a SAHM of two great little guys, ages 2 1/2 and 4 1/2. In the next couple of years, I would like to go back to work. The thing is since I now have two kids, they are my priority. My question is, what do you do for work? Is it flexible for a family life and still fulfilling? Do you like it and why? I did inside sales and inside sales management for ten years but I don't want to go back to that.

My Dog Is Dying.

Took my 7 year old german shepherd to the vet last week because she has been acting different and stopped eating. Found out she has lymphoma, and has to be put down. We scheduled the appointment for this upcoming Wednesday. I cry several times a day. I really can't break down though, I have three kids and am 6 months pregnant with my fourth.

Birthday Party Logistics (We Are from Out of State) What Would You Do?

So we are from out of state. Last year, since we had just moved here, we had our son's birthday party back home with all of his friends. This year, he has lots of friends here and I was comfortable having the party here and hoping some of the grandparents could come out for it.

Air Travel Advice with a 3 Month Old

Hello. My husband and I will be flying to Florida next month with our 3 month old. I have a few questions about how to navigate through the airport and what to check/pack.

We have a snap and go, the Chicco travel system, and a baby trend lightweight stroller...My husband doesn't really want to take the Chicco because it may get dirty and/or beat...

Car Seats - Graco SportsComfort Vs. Cosco Scenera

Hi all - I am hoping that your good advice will help me make an educated decision! We are leaving for vacation soon and need to buy a second car seat for the plane ride and need one that will also be comfortable for a 2-3 hour drive from Orlando to Naples. (We will be at Walt Disney World for a few days and then driving to see my in laws for a day or two so not a lot a "driving" time!) Also this second car seat will be in my car as a back up in case my husband cannot pick up the kids in time. We currently have a Grace Nautilus 3-1 in his...
