overlyactive: Decorating Christmas Tree

Parenting Tips (not that I'm the expert) Just learning from my own mistakes.

Baby schedule: Eat, Play, Sleep! Works wonders.
Commit to go on a date, weekly-(this is without the kids!) We have budgeted babysitting money plus date money. We also swap with other couples to make it more affordable.
Enjoy each stage of your childs life because you will never get it back.
Laugh more often then get angry-otherwise you'll always be putting yourself in time outs
Naps are for your child and your sanity
Read great parenting books and magazines-their is so much to learn, you don't always have to agree but I always gleen something
Teach good eating habits from day one. Introduce lots of food and don't be the short ordered chef (fixing for individuals because they don't like what you fixed)
Toys are so much fun when reintroduced and semi-organized: store and rotate
When your burned out find something you can do that is fun with your kids, mine is dancing to "awesome music"
When your kids are a little older take them on Mommy/daddy dates. One on one time is so special for them and you.
