Colic Baby Bootcamp - Parent Survival TipsSurviving a baby with colic truly deserves an award of some sort. The relentless screaming can really drive you to edge. Unfortunately for parents of a colic baby, most of focus of surviving is usually geared towards how to relieve suffering for your baby. But, what about your suffering? Here are 10 tips on HOW to keep your sanity while enduring a fit of colic. 1.Buy a baby monitor with lights that indicate level of noise coming from your baby. Take this monitor with you everywhere, put it on mute and get as far away from screaming as possible. Physically check on your baby every now and then to make sure everything is alright. When levels on lights stop dancing, chances are your baby has calmed down. 2.Put on headphones. Listen to music. Keep above monitor with you to determine when baby has calmed down. 3.Take a shower. The warm water will relax you, and noise will drown out ear-piercing crying. 4.Go for a walk. Exercise is great for alleviating tension and motion might settle baby down. 5.If possible, find a sitter and leave. Go shopping, run errands, go work out, go for a walk. Get some distance between you and baby. Don’t leave baby unattended. Make sure you have a sitter first!

Do you have bad credit, no credit, filed a bankruptcy, have a ton of late pays, medical bills, or been through a divorce? Well, we have perfect solution for you - Lease Purchasing your own home!What is Lease Purchasing? A Lease Purchase is a process that combines a basic rental lease with an agreement to purchase, or with an option to purchase property. The Buyer (or Lease-Purchaser) pays to seller a monthly payment that usually approximates a rental amount or a typical mortgage payment on home. A percentage of that payment is typically applied towards purchase price. At end of term, buyer has right to purchase property for price and terms to which both parties have previously agreed. Put another way, a lease purchase is essentially a rental agreement combined with a purchase contract with pre-negotiated terms. The buyer leases property for a specific period of time and then purchases property before end of lease agreement. Sales price, length of rental, rent credits, escrow instructions, etc., are all contained in agreement. A lease purchase is a wonderful way to control property without headaches of banks, mortgages, taxes or immediate loan qualifying. Lease Purchasing gives you right to buy property, but not obligation to buy.
