Hadlock posted:Daycare intermittently reports toddler has a temp, then does not. Covid negative. Does he have any other symptoms besides a fever? My son had an on and off temperature for a few days and it turned out to be a pretty nasty ear infection that apparently caused no ear pain. Antibiotics cleared it up pretty quickly. Of course if you're sick then it's probably not an ear infection since they aren't contagious, but I thought I'd bring it up if you're worried about his fever.

I have ad free YouTube and I'll never go back. It also gives a higher cut to channels you watch a lot which is nice I suppose. But I live in Wisconsin so being as free during election cycles is a blessing

Hadlock posted:When youtube plays a full screen ad for ~15 seconds does the screen go black or, does it just somehow skip over that? $15 is kind of steep but also not ridiculously high since we don't have cable No ads. Zero. Silch. Ever. I’m at the point where I’m shocked to see ads when I’m not logged in on a device, because I completely forgot Youtube had any.

What ad blocker are y'all using? Mine keeps getting flagged by websites asking me to turn it off.

Alterian posted:What ad blocker are y'all using? Mine keeps getting flagged by websites asking me to turn it off. OK, we're hugely off-topic now but this is important. I think uBlock Origin is still the gold standard on desktop. No ads on web or youtube that I can remember in the last ~5 years. On iPhone I use Hush which does a decent job but not quite as good. (Also of course the iPhone youtube app can't be ad blocked - hence my intention to install a PiHole DNS server.) The only thing I'm aware of that can get around a PiHole is some brands of smart TVs and game consoles, which hardcode an external DNS. Ref: https://labzilla.io/blog/force-dns-pihole

Almost 4yo son started doing this thing where we says he loves us the size of different animals (I love you giraffe size!) and we just think of bigger and bigger animals. Very cute and felt like my own version of Iron Man's daughter "I love you three thousand" scene. Except then he realized it's funnier to get a rise out of me by shrinking the animals sizes, until eventually he told me he loves me tardigrade size. So thank you Kratt brothers for sticking one of Earth's tiniest creatures on your animal show so that the love I receive is now microscopic.

We resorted to bribery. We told our daughter that if she pooped in the potty then we gave her a scooter. She was about the same age and a year later she still remembers why she got the scooter.

We had to use bribery as well for one of the twins, one piece of candy for going poop without being told to. Dude just has huge poops and holds them in, ending up with it coming out whether he wanted it to or not. At least he only had one accident at kindergarten this year.

Not as big as a scooter, but we bribed hard with TV. If he goes poop in potty he gets TV even if it is like 15 minutes after he wakes up. Same thing, he was about 2 1/2 maybe (and ready to be trained), and it was golden. Some kids aren’t like that, so ymmv, but after about 6 months he basically stopped demanding TV after/doing it for TV explicitly.

My husband and I are idiots and agreed to take our 10 month old to an escape room that’s an hour’s drive away. Tomorrow. When DST hits and everything will already be thrown off. But it’s our friend’s birthday party and they’ve been super accommodating coming to visit us this past year. Someone please tell me our little man is going to be a champ.

We bought our 7yo daughter a bike and new shoes today, which she was ecstatic about. On the way home, we stopped at a bar / restaurant for lunch. They had a little game area, so I gave her $0.50 to play the crane game. I warned her that they're harder than they look, and she might not win anything. She got close but didn't win. She then proclaimed today as "the worst day in her entire life" because she didn't win a cheap stuffed animal. My sweet little girl... what about the bike and new shoes?

What would you like for breakfast? People! Um, that's cannibalism, which is generally frowned on... Wanna eat cannibals! This is age-appropriate subject matter to be discussing with a two-year-old, right? Right?

Today, completely unprovoked, our 2 year old told us he wanted to peepee in the bathroom. We had a training seat that we got as a gift for his 1st birthday that we never bothered putting together, so I got it out, put it together, and he did in fact go peepee in the bathroom. I guess we're potty training now

We’re on vacation so the kid woke up in a strange place at a strange time. He cuddled with me for half an hour but since then he has been an absolute rear end in a top hat. gently caress daylights saving time.

Daylight savings time is meaningless when the whole family is at home with Covid! My mom has been super cautious but somehow she finally got it two weeks ago. We followed the official policies once we knew she was infected (tested negative on day 5, masks and no contact until day 10) but that seems to be the most likely source of transmission. Maybe it’s because she was on Paxlovid, though she has tested negative every day since day 5. Oh well, water under the bridge. I just hope my 4 YO with asthma does ok, he wound up with pneumonia when he had the flu at 15 months.
