We have two Clek Foonf's. Built like tanks. Stupid easy to install. Super easy to clean. Expensive, but highly recommend. We also have two Graco 4ever DLX seats and they're ok, they're a pain in the ass to install right, and not as easy to clean. I can install both Cleks in the time I can get one Graco in. I'm sure they're both safe, but the Cleks are just easier for an adult to deal with I feel.

My wife had an obsession with this so she did tons of research and this is where we ended up

Nuna RAVA has been a Godsend. Super easy to install and it's really easy to clean!

Second this. It’s a great car seat.

Whatever you decide make sure the cover is easy to take off, wash, and put back in. Because your kid WILL puke. It’s just a question of how much and how often

My wife bought an Uppababy Mesa Infant Car Seat. I’d say it’s pretty good.

What's uppababy?

Nothin, what's up with you?

I'll see myself out.

The Doona is the greatest money I've ever spent, and then we moved our little guy into a Nuna Rava after he outgrew the Doona

Big fan of the Graco 4ever, basically the only car seat you ever need to buy, but also had the uppababy mesa for newborn which was good and worked well with our stroller.

Ok, I’m gonna say this. Schools should open. Now hear me out. My wife is a family doctor, she is working insane hours, she is treating covid patients, and there is a lot of days when she has to stay at the hospital without coming home. My neighbour works in a local grocery store, so he has been at work since the Day 1 of lockdown. So if you need medical help, or want to eat, it’s ok for those people to be at work, but their kids have to stay home? Cont’d >>

With my wife for 14 years, 2 kids under 8y - both under a lot of pressure bc Covid/work/private life/… and have been (unconsciously) running away from our couple not working “since a long time” (dixit my wife). We want to try and fix it, but I also met someone new (not sure if she would even want me) and wondering if it’s worth fixing it (since we are trying/running/avoiding it for years) - just worried about the kids…any advice

I felt like a walking zombie during thanksgiving, barely eating and barely talking. My family is small and I told them ahead of time my relationship ended.

I’m back in my apartment, just trying to take it one day at a time, and not re read his texts too much. My birthday is Thursday 🙄

My aunt recently passed away, leaving behind 2 young girls (16 and 12 years old). I’m trying my best to be there for them and pray for them, and have been asking people to pray for them as well. Until I started question what is the point of asking people to pray for them? I know God hears my prayers, so why do we ask people to pray ?

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Had 2 hours of billable work today 💀
