If you’re intimidated by the idea of face paint, don’t be. All it takes is a steady hand, a willing child, and a strong, basic design. We’ve taken care of that last part with this Fatherly list of easy face-paint designs. You’ll soon be a master of the art and be branching out from basic dragons to advanced Fortnite. 1. Puppy What kid doesn’t dream of being a dog for a day?...
Mirror Lake Inn and Spa, Lake Placid, New York Not enough people think about wilderness when you mention the Empire State, but they should. New York’s Adirondack Park protects 6.1 million acres of natural beauty and there’s no better spot from which to appreciate it all than the village of Lake Placid—home to the 1980 Winter Olympics—and its aptly named body of water. Right on the shore, the Mirror is a stunning spot to both enjoy the refined beauty of a world-famous lodge and get out and play....
It’s normal to wonder about what to say to a new dad, says Sam Nabil, CEO and Lead Therapist of Naya Clinics. “He’s likely going through a range of conflicting emotions — including joy, anxiety, hopefulness, and even sadness,” he says, “which makes it normal to wonder about the right words.” The safest way to go about talking to your friend, Nabil says, is to first ask open-ended questions like ‘How’s it going?...
So what accounts for the uptick in “gray divorce”? A variety of factors explain the spike, researchers say. Among them: Divorce is much more socially acceptable today than it was in decades past, people are living longer, and women are more financially independent. More than ever, people in their 50s or 60s or older are deciding they don’t want to spend 20 or 30 more years with a spouse they’re unhappy with when they don’t have to....
“Who among us stands in front of a mirror and says, ‘Gosh, I love myself?,’” says Eileen Kennedy-Moore, psychologist and author of Kid Confidence. Of course, children should feel confident, she notes. But the goal is a “quiet ego,” where there’s less self-focus. Thus, the baseline question becomes, “What gets them there?” Well, that would be building skills, gaining competence, and feeling connected to you. There are two things that help with this pursuit....
Cleary won young readers (and their parents) over with her witty and tender writing, perfectly encapsulating the big emotions and challenges of childhood. She wrote over 40 books in 50 years, winning almost every honor a children’s book author could win along the way. Though her most famous series (Henry Huggins and Ramona Quimby) should not be missed, there are some hidden treasures within her extensive collection that are just as essential....
Hang around a guy who exhibits any of these behaviors and chances are you’ll think to yourself, what a douche. You understand that these behaviors are annoying at best and toxic at worst, and that we should all work to understand and admit when we might be guilty of them. That’s how we keep ourselves in check; that’s how we become better friends, co-workers, and people in general. As knowing is half the battle, there’s worth in reading a recent reddit thread in which u/Pitiful_Airline1092 asked “Men of Reddit, what pisses you off about other men?...
On January 18, the 3,280-foot asteroid (nicknamed 7482) will come within 1,231,184 miles of Earth, according to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. To put that into perspective, the Moon is 238,900 miles away from us, so saying this asteroid will be close to us is pretty relative. But it is the closest an asteroid has gotten to our planet since January 17, 1933, when an asteroid came within 700,000 miles of Earth....
The first time Sandler fans heard this love song, it was from the perspective of Robbie Hart, a struggling musician moonlighting as a wedding singer circa 1985. Robbie, who’s engaged to long-term girlfriend Linda, meets Julia, who’s engaged to long-term boyfriend Glenn, at a gig where she’s working as a waitress and there’s an immediate spark. Naturally, it’s not a squeaky-clean courtship and the song was part of an elaborate Billy Idol-assisted effort to save Barrymore from becoming Mrs....
Whether uniformly fair or not, men are renowned for their friendship troubles, for a long and colorful list of potential reasons that you can basically X out and replace with “inability to forge meaningful emotional connections based on anything other than going online and pretending you can coach an football team.” This is doubly true if you have kids, which are usually not allowed into something like 85 percent of the activities you and your buddy previously enjoyed....
“Alimony is such an emotional issue,” says Mandy Walker, a divorce coach, mediator, and certified divorce financial analyst in Boulder, Colorado. “Especially if the recipient of the support is the same person who initiated the divorce in the first place.” And if your income is higher than your soon-to-be ex’s, you’ll want to think about what this divorce will cost you. Here, some questions to consider, so you can plan accordingly....
Yes! Every single episode since the show first aired in 1975 will hit Peacock on October 1. Given how many seasons the comedy show has been on the air, that amounts to 889 episodes for people to be able to watch. This is a huge jump in inventory over current streaming stores of the show (only the most recent five seasons are currently on Peacock) and represents a whole bunch of on-the-couch-time for me, watching episodes of SNL I’ve probably never seen before....
But while the majority of data resulted in obvious conclusions, there was one set of data that revealed something very sad and very true about American society: as we get older, the time we spend alone continues to increase. While time spent with other groups slowly but surely decreases over the course of our lives, we spend much more time by ourselves. This may seem obvious, but seeing this data visually represented is shocking, especially when you realize that if an American lives past 80, he or she is spending eight hours of every day by themselves — not including sleep....
She spoke of her son’s birth and how the doctors insisted she and her husband, Chris Fischer, wait six weeks before having sex. “How about six years…” she replied, “that’s when I think I’ll be ready; remember, his foot got caught in my intestines.” Schumer continued, saying she and Fischer “have a good sex life.” “Married people, have you found this? We’ve found that the best weekday to have sex is always to … morrow,” she joked....
It sounds like you’re open to that discussion, which is terrific. The best way to head off arguments down the road is to share your concerns now and come to a mutual understanding. Financial intimacy is huge. Talking about spending habits can be especially valuable for recently married couples, who are still getting a feel for what they can afford each month, says Forrest Baumhover, an advisor with Lawrence Financial Planning in Tampa, Florida....
According to a Facebook post on Sunday, in which Martin shared shocking photos of the bite marks on her daughter, the injuries all occurred in one day at Creative Beginnings Daycare in Tucson. She added that the facility didn’t call her when it happened or even tell her about the bites when she picked up her daughter. “It’s stomach-turning. It feels both angry and sad at the same time,” Martin told KOLD....
But why? And where are they? In the beginning of the film, Captain America mentions, almost off-hand, that both took plea deals as a result of the Sokovia Accords, the controversial super-hero registration laws that led to the events in Captain America: Civil War. Those plea deals provided that both Hawkeye and Ant-Man were confined to house arrest. The other heroes — Scarlet Witch, Falcon, Captain America, and Black Widow have presumably been on the run since the events of Civil War....
Importantly, for pacifier care to not cause disruption in a kids life, it’s helpful to have plenty on hand. That way, as pacifiers are cleaned or disposed of, the baby still has one handy. Multiple clean pacifiers should also be packed in diaper bags and cars. Necessity has driven many a parent to desperately wipe off a filthy pacifier or even take one for the team and swish the dirty binky around in their own mouth to “clean” it before giving it back to their kid....
That answer depends on the quality of the data and how a parent uses it. Baby trackers are not officially assessed or regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (the body that typically looks at health claims in products) or the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Indeed, the world of baby trackers — flashy, high-tech and promising as it seems — is the Wild West when it comes to data about your baby that could improve their health or well-being....
