Step Son Drama

What do you do when your step son is more like an unwanted guest in your home? I have tried and tried to be nice....I finally just left it alone and stopped talking to him while he is at my house. He is 12 and is so different than my kids. He will sit and just stare at you all the time, will sit on the couch and stare at a blank tv screen, and will make excuses for everything his mother does (empty promises). Don't get me wrong he will play video games and watch TV. When I try to talk to him, it's okay for a few minutes then he starts...

My 20 month old Son, still demands a bottle at bed time and ONLY at bed time. He takes a sippy cup all day long. He does not get or request a sippy cup at nap time during the day. Only at night does he have a complete melt down until he gets his bottle. He has started waking up twice a night asking from "more".

My son gets an ear infection with every cold he gets. He's seen an ENT, and they recommend he get tubes if he gets another infection. My husband and I are against this. We hope he'll outgrow them.

Seeking New Ideas for What to Feed My 16 Month Old for Lunch

I am just looking for any ideas on what new things I could feed my 16 month old for lunch. I feel I am just stuck in a rut. She has things like turkey and tortilla and cheese and a fruit, PB&J. I have tried a grilled cheese and quesadilla, but she doesn't seem to like them. She is a good eater, I just need some new ideas so she doesn't get used to the same things and will eat a variety of foods. She eats almost anything at dinner time (meat, veggie, bread or pasta).

Blackberry, Palm Pre, Droid Luv Em or Hate Em?

I will be getting a new phone within the next 4-6 months. It is mind-boggling, trying to think of what will be a good fit for me. I talk and text, but not excessively (mostly because I am in my vehicle so much!). I like to take pictures on my phone, but only to share phone-to-phone. I have never retrieved them off the phone to computer. My husband has a blackberry for work and I am not all that impressed with it He's had both the Storm and Curve. It is very possible I would just need to get used to it. What about the Palm Pre or...
