I ordered my book and look forward to discussion! I have a 2.25 year old daughter and a 4-month-old baby girl.
I ordered my copy, and I'll try to get my reading done. Not making too many promises, though.
I'm in.
I'll be doing my best, too. My guy's only 14 months, but I'm gearing up for the years to come...
I'd like to try and join. I'm new to your site though and have only just ordered the book at the library. I probably won't have the first two chapters read by next week but hopefully the book will come in soon and I can jump in for the second week.
I have a 2 1/2 year old and a 7 month old, by the way.
Hi! I have a 15 month old along with two teenagers. Just recieved my copy from Amazon today and will try my best to read along!
