Who’s wrong about Indiana’s new law? Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio

Comment on 8 Pregnancy Tips For Baby Number Two ~ $100 Giveaway by Denise L

My babies were 17 years apart, so I might not be the best to ask, but my advice is to hug and love baby #2 as much as possible. It's harder to get one on one time when you already have one, but it's so important.

Orlando - Stream Yourself With Periscope

The Periscope iOS app is now available. You may have heard of Meerkat. Skip it. Twitter bought Periscope, so more than likely, Periscope will be the live-streaming app that twitter supports over Meerkat.

What should you live stream?

• Meetings: City Council meetings (with better sound than what they have now on youtube), non-profit board meetings, clubs, info sessions
• Events: Is your bar having a special happy hour? Let people know how busy it is. Stream your businesses' sale, the private dinner your restaurant sold tickets to
• Workshops: how-to lessons, group exercises, lectures
• Performances: if it's a free performance free from copyright, live-stream improv shows, outdoor concerts

My daughter was 15 months old when I had my son. Going from 1 to 2 is WAY harder than 2 to 3. I think the transition to any number more than one is the scariest and the most difficult....says the lady about to welcome baby #5 this June. My kids are 7,6, 4, 2 and then baby due in June.
