Thank you designmind for posting Miss Manners' comment! Couldn't have said it myself. And yes - very interesting that those claiming that Lydia is being "judgmental" are the ones in favor of second showers themselves. And the ones that seem to be harshest on Lydia.

I don't think etiquette has "changed" so much as it has fallen by the wayside. People don't send thank you notes anymore, and think having multiple showers is OK too. If you want to "celebrate" how about inviting all your lady friends out to lunch, no strings attached? Celebrating a child before they're here isn't much of a celebration for the child, it's about the parents, let's be real. If you want to celebrate the child, have a big birthday party for them. To me - a second shower where gifts are expected is tacky. Trying to label it under the guilt-trippy guise of "celebrating the child" is silly. Gift Etiquette and Moral Dilemmas Good Questions |

We made our own play kitchen for our daughter as a result of seeing these posts on ohdeedoh and our daughter LOVES it! And seeing this kitchen and hearing peoples' ideas about creating an art center provide more inspiration for me! Keep em comin ohdeedoh! DIY All-in-One Play Kitchen Design*Sponge |

My daughter is 2 and she already knows how to use my iPhone like a pro. Scary... But helpful at restaurants. Anyhow - I want her to have a cell phone when she's old enough in case of emergencies. Filter - yes please. News: Apple To Censor Sexting & Potty Mouths |

Adorable! 2 questions. Did you make the garland? If so, how? Also - is the type a font or handwritten? I LOVE it! My Party: Cobe St. Pete, FL |

hi traceyelise - I want to do a turtle costume for my daughter this year and am trying to figure out how to do the shell. Curious how you did the salad bowl? We were contemplating papier mache.... Would love your thoughts! Thanks. :) Homecrafted Halloween: DIY Costume Inspiration |

My daughter is *obsessed* with drawing on our white kitchen cabinets at the moment. I had been trying to stop her and move her over to paper but recently waved the white flag and decided that hey could be her easels for a while. Thank God for washable crayons. Just as long as she doesn't get a hold of the sharpies... Wallpaper That Promotes Drawing On The Walls | Apartment Therapy Ohdeedoh |

How about DIY upholstery cleaner? And rug cleaner? I have a shag carpet and sofa that desperately need a cleaning. I found an eco-cleaning company but don't want to spend the cash..... DIY Cleaners To Make Things Sparkle Shine Roundup | Apartment Therapy Ohdeedoh |

Eeka - thanks for posting your comment. My daughter is almost 14 months and content to cruise and crawl still. You wouldn't believe how many people ask if she's walking yet and when I say that "she's working on it" people say "Oh." Like - oh - too bad your kid is sloooooowwwwwww.

Here's a similar crib - 2 toned with drawer and only $400. It also converts to a toddler bed. We bought it and really like it: Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Sources for This Crib or One Like It? Good Questions |
