munchkinsmommie`s poll Show results | Hide results


Other-poll poll Do you have to have your LOs toys organized? I am a little OCD about toys. I like the sets to kept together. Ex: In the Little People Farm House has to only have its pieces in there when put away. Also I have certain spots for certain toys. Anyone else like this, DH always picks on me?

Im very OCD about everything. People always pick on me and say when they come over it actually feels like i dont have children because there is no sign of baby stuff anywhere. My kids have a very neat organized room that i recently re designed. They each have their own toy box (one for girl toys the other for boy toys) Im looking into getting just one toy box though (still not sure) I like to keep Matching containers in their room (one for fame yard animals, one for leggo, etc)

Yay! I`m not the only one! LOL I go nuts about it. Even if my son (abt 2 months) is crying and I need to rock him or keep putting his binky in every minute, in the meantime I`m trying to clean up the mess. Yes, I have actually held him with one arm and bent down to grab the toys with my other hand, until everything is put away correctly. I`m nuts. Haha

I think i am worse than all of you! Everything has to be in the same place after my son has finished with it... little people sets, we have so many over 20 sets and they all have to have their parts together... Balls have their own tub, fisher price toys like those rings and rattles and telephones all have to go back in an actual fisher price tub... Cars have their own tub... Books have to be on the shelf, his big fisher price toys like his laugh and learn chair, laugh and learn table, have to be lined up neatly against the wall I actually have a photo of my nursery and playroom... I am so bad with it my fianc`e picks on me too, and if i can`t find a toy i basically won`t stop looking till i find it, i know exactly what i have... I clean his playroom when he goes down for a nap, after he has a bath and after he goes to bed... I`m really bad lol!

I`m the same and my husband laughs about it too. When he puts the toys away at night I still need to look over them and make sure he put everything away in the right place, and that all the pieces of everything are accounted for. I get so annoyed when stuff is `missing`, because he didn`t bother getting a toy from under the couch, or put it away in the wrong place. :-)

I keep everything together - not to say she doesn`t have a toy box full of random junk... but if a puzzle is missing a piece, etc, I`d probably get rid of it. Broken or missing pieces drives me bonkers.

lol I have to put the little people farm people together and stuff BUT most is thrown all in a huge toy chest....tons of balls and odd pieces that go with 20+ different toys. I am just glad they are off the floor.

I am glad I am not the only OCD mommy. I hosted playgroup today and everyone helped clean up before leaving but now I have to redo it. I just want to say leave the mess I will do it. It is nice that they help. But everything is not in the right place NOW hahaha

I`m totally OCD, haha. The boys toy room MUST be cleaned up everynight. All the toys have a certain spot they have to go in. The little stuff gets put in the toyboxes. I only let a few toys at a time brought into the living room (other than that they all stay in the toy room). If my husband picks up the toy room 90% of the time I go in after him and re-organize, lol.

I like to keep my daughters room organized. I have barbie with barbie stuff, baby doll clothes together, baby accesories ex: bottles, plates,spoons, all together. It`s getting harder know that she is 6 and cleans her own room, but I still go in there and organize. I can`t help it.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
