Instead of spending the day after Thanksgiving in crowded stores spending money, we are staying home and making gifts. It's a great way to spend time together, save money, and give gifts that are really meaningful to us.Check out this site for a guide to commercial-free holidays.

Heather What beverages are best for a one year old? She is refusing whole milk and not too crazy about very watered down juice! She just spits out plain water. Do I keep trying and give it sometime with the beverages I listed. Is almond milk ok to try?Mommy wants to wean her from breastmilk soon!

Personally, I keep trying with the water. I always suggest from the time infants are sitting in the high chair to give a sippy cup with water. Get them used to quenching their thirst with water. Right now, if she's not drinking it, she is probably getting enough from breastmilk and fruits but as you wean, she should get thirstier and start drinking... See More. Almond milk is fine at one year and a healthy choice as well as long as their is not a history of allergies in your family. Almonds are the least allergenic of the nuts too.

Hmm. Sounds like Cathe stole my idea for the Halloween Witch. We did this successfully for a lot of years with Joe. He was probably in middle school when he no longer wanted to trade for gifts.
