 Hi all,I just found out that there are 2 openings in
 the Monday Wednesday Friday morning class of our
 beloved preschool in the Inner Richmond. Peter's Place
 is a play-based preschool at 4th Avenue and Balboa. Our
 twins went there for three years and loved every
 minute. My son will start in the Tuesday Thursday class
 in the Fall. The teachers are veterans with very low
 turnover and the philosophy of the school is very
 low-key and inclusive. (It is not at all religiously
 affiliated). They have great statistics for getting
 into Kindergarten, etc.The openings are for boys with
 birthdays in January-June of 2009 I believe. If you are
 interested, please contact Kate Banfield, Program
 Director at 415-752-1444If you have any questions about
 Peter's Place, I would also be happy to answer them. We
 adore the school and can't say enough great things
 about it. I can be reached at 415-517-6280Jessica

 We almost always required our toddlers to sit to eat --
 no grazing. The one exception we made was a sort of
 cocktail or happy hour before dinner if my husband and
 I were cooking. That's when we would often put
 together an appetizer plate for the girls. Because
 they were hungry before dinner, we would give them
 vegetables that they might not be excited about on
 their plate with other foods. We'd offer a few raw
 vegetables, with one or two dipping choices, arranged
 nicely on a plate. You might have luck with apples in
 a similar way when you know they are hungry. Carla

 Thank you to everyone. I really appreciate the
 thoughtful responses you posted. The overnight camping
 trip is a big birthday bash with lots of families with
 kids -- all at least a few years older than ours. We
 decided this was not the best opportunity to try
 camping for the first time. We're going to bring the
 twins and drive home later that night. I'm bringing
 our stroller in hopes that they will fall asleep in
 that for their 3(ish) hours of sleep before we leave
 (maybe just in theory), but also a tent and 2 portable
 cribs as back upThanks again for your input. I'm
 looking forward to our first *real* camping trip.

 Sounds like it might be time! Just definitely put
 blankets down underneath for the first few nights. I
 think each of ours fell out once the first night or
 two, and then got the hang of it pretty quickly. A
 couple of the times, tho, it didn't even wake them up!!

 toddler beds are on our agenda for the weekend too --
 we have all been sleeping on the floor all week due to
 the crib-free revolution that has invaded our home.
 (this is following on the tails of the no-sleep-sack
 uprising). how i hope removing the side of the crib
 will a peace treaty! good luck!!! i know we need it.
