In an episode of Seventeen Kids and Counting, Joshua Duggar, 20, joked that he and his wife, Anna, hadn't picked their letter yet. The eldest son of Jim Bob and Michelle, who are well known for their big brood all named with "J", might have to start thinking. The newlyweds, who waited until their wedding day to kiss, made a vow to leave their number of offspring up to God. People reported:
"I would welcome a big family," Joshua says. "My parents have been wonderful examples." Adds Anna: "I would love to have as many children as God would bless us with. Growing up in a large family, and Joshua in a mega-family, you learn so much more. I think a large family helps you prepare for life."

Sometimes you have to meet your kid in the middle. My daughter is pretty easygoing so when she asked for pink hair, I knew I'd be able to talk her into something a little less appearance altering. At four and a half, dye was out of the equation even if she pressed, but I was willing to cave on a wig. Then, an attachable pink hair piece caught her eye while we were passing Claire's at the mall. For $6, it brought a shock to her locks, me a peace of mind, and everyone was happy.
When the Really Scary Housewives of New York City aired last Spring, most of you were appalled by the women's parenting skills. The series' final episode, in which one of social climber Alex McCord's sons threw a shrieking temper tantrum in the middle of a dinner party while his parents sat idly by, brought out the claws with several of you, suggesting that the family needed to spend more time at home teaching social skills and less time gallivanting about town. We've now heard that Alex, and her husband Simon, are co-writing a parenting book based on their experiences with their own tots.
Given what you have seen of the McCord family on TV, would you consider purchasing their tome?
Monkey see, monkey do, right? You can be sure your older darling will want to take care of her baby dolls the same way you do her baby sister. Hotslings, the baby carrier company known for its pouch-style slings that come in a variety of beautiful, stylish fabrics, has created miniature versions of its bestsellers just for your lil copycat. Kidslings ($20) come in a dozen fabrics for both boys and girls and are perfectly sized for toddlers and preschoolers looking to tote stuffed animals, favorite trucks, and precious dolls throughout the day. I wonder if toys benefit as much from attachment parenting as their owners do?
