I totally agree about Parker! I’m surprised they don’t play that "infant baby crying" when he is in the next room like they do with Arianna. (She is way too old for that, too!) Parker seems to have a cute personality, especially when he is around Daniel, so I wish they would let him talk and react more like they do with Johnny.
Didn’t know that about Allie’s twin. Interesting. I didn’t realize she had been on the show since she was a baby.
around 6:50 to drive to my son’s. Since my DIL got a full-time job, I take all 3 of their kids to 2 different schools, and the girls have to be in by 7:45, but the boy not until 9:15, so I wait at their house and help getting him ready to leave by 8:50 a.m, and then go back in the afternoon and pick them all up. Fun, fun, fun….yeah for me, huh??? My poor car hasn’t seen this many miles for I don’t even know how long.
Bonbon– not sure where you got your info but here is a picture of wins with Christie Clarke and Chandler. They are both girls. Also one of them sitting. FInally an interview with the twins.
Perhaps you were thinking of the twins who played them as babies.

I saw it on a page about "under fives" but now I can’t find it again. There was a picture of them as babies so could be. I just remember the boy’s name was Ranger. So, how old are these girls? I can’t believe they don ‘t have their birth dates pn Imdb.com.
Allie the older child of Sami and Lucas? If that’s correct, then Allie should look older and bigger than Johnny.
Now that’s what I call a dedicated grandma. I just don’t understand these days why so many parents have to drive their kids to school. When I was in school (in the dark ages) and even when my kids were in school, if you lived too far to walk you either took city transportation (high school) or a school bus (middle school).
When school gets out around here, the cars are lined up all the way around the parking lots, through the entrances and way, way down along the streets. At some places, it is impossible to make a right turn because of the line of cars. I thought maybe this was just Florida but apparently not. Where has all this lottery money gone that was supposed to be going to our schools? Can’t they afford busses for these kids?
I am also surprised at how early some kids are starting school. Our hours were always 9:00 to 3:30…all the way from first to senior in HS. The middle school here starts at 7:30. Why so early? Most office jobs don’t even start that early.
School start times are scheduled around bus service since the buses serve all the grade levels. We have a lot of elementary schools and several private schools plus two middle schools and the high school so start times are staggered.
Usually high schools start earlier and get out earlier because of sports and activities that are held after school.
Elementary schools usually staart later because in winter it is safer that young kids are going out for the bus in the dark.
Many parents don’t likfe their students taking busses, and unfortunately no parents feel safein letting kids walk to school now.
Bonbon– in Florida, parents MUST pick up pre K, K 1st and 2nd grade students if they don’t take the bus!!
start later so young kids can get the bus in the dark? You mean safer than letting young kids get the bus in the dark maybe? But here all the scheduling is done around the buses so they can make all their routes. We couldn’t afford enough buses I don’t think to allot buses for each school. At our high school at dismissal time you can walk on top of the buses through the length of the entire parking lot. We have a very large school. My youngest son had almost 800 kids in his graduating class!
my two granddaughters are both at the same high school, and their start time is 7:45, but my grandson is in first grade, and he starts at 9:15 and is not out until 3:40, but if a parent or approved adult isn’t there to pick him up, he has to wait in the office until the school calls those on his approved pick-up list (plus, he panics when he doesn’t see me — LOL), but the elementary kids are not allowed to leave on their own until after 3rd grade. As for the high schoolers, my son and daughter-in-law both strongly object to them riding the school bus for fear of the fights, bullying, mean girls/boys, etc., which seem to be everywhere, like it or not, so I volunteered to take them and pick them up every day.
It’s very funny to me though that the girls, who are teens, don’t say a word all the way to/from school, unless I drag the words out of them, but the 1st grader entertains me with his day from the time he gets into the car until I get him home. Girls too busy on their phones to talk to gran. LOL!
Yes dval, I meant so the younger students are not going outfor the bus in the dark. Sorry. of course the buses do double duty at most schools, I was merely explaining why the times are earlier for high school and later for elementary.
