Packed with more than 300 photographs from archives and private collections -- many published here for the first time -- entertaining anecdotes, political analysis, the dynamics of family relationships, and behind-the-scenes gossip, America's First Families offers the first up-close look at the families -- from John and Abigail Adams in 1800 to Bill and Hillary Clinton -- who have intrigued and entranced the American public for two centuries.Carl Sferrazza Anthony opens the door to the world's most famous residence to reveal life as it was actually lived there. He takes readers into the heart of loyalties and estrangements, and the emotional pressures that politics brings to bear upon the forty White House families, from their arrivals to their notices to vacate. Readers will enjoy an unprecedented tour of the previously unseen private rooms as used and decorated by each family. Revealed too are the personal proclivities of the presidents and how their families both sustained them through public crises and were used for political advantage. They'll get a firsthand look at the preparations for White House weddings and other occasions; meet the parents and children of the presidents -- as well as eccentric relatives; and discover the patterns of working, resting, and relaxing that shaped the nuts and bolts of family life.
A magnificent combination of visual delights and insider information, America's First Families is an irresistible invitation to spend some time at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Great Pull-ups that Don't Leak!
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 20
I was on the hunt for the perfect potty training pants for my little guy, and Pull-Ups Boys' Potty Training Pants in size 3T-4T turned out to be a great find. We’ve tried a few different brands, but these have been the most reliable. The design is fun and colorful, which my son loves, and it makes him excited to wear them. The fit is spot on for his size (32-40 lbs), and he moves around comfortably without any leaks. The absorbency is impressive – it gives me peace of mind knowing accidents won’t mean a complete outfit change. Overall, these Pull-Ups have made the potty training process a lot smoother for both of us.
There are a few things to note, though. The price is a bit higher compared to some other brands, but I believe the quality justifies it. Also, while they are great during the day, we still need a bit more protection at night. I find myself using an extra layer for nighttime just to be safe. The packaging could also be improved – a resealable option would be nice to keep the remaining training pants fresh and organized. Despite these minor issues, I’m really happy with the product, and my son is well on his way to being fully potty trained.
Pros:
- Fun and colorful design that my son loves
- Perfect fit for 32-40 lbs, allowing comfortable movement
- Excellent absorbency, minimizing leaks
- Helps make the potty training process smoother
Cons:
- Slightly higher price compared to other brands
- Not as effective for overnight use, requiring additional protection
- Packaging lacks a resealable option for convenience

Leak proof training pants
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 112
These training pants are amazing. My son uses them whenever he’s taking a nap or sleeping throughout the night. I’ve ordered these multiple times and we’ve never had an issue with leaking.

Great for potty training
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 20
We really like these pull ups and they have worked well for us during potty training. They are easy to pull on and off, which is great for toddlers who are learning to be more independent.
They fit well and do a good job containing messes without leaking. I also like that they feel comfortable and not too bulky, so my child can move around easily.
Overall, these have been a reliable option for us and something we continue to use during this stage.

Preferred by daycare teachers!
Size: 4T-5T, Unit Count: 99
Preferred by daycares because they open and close on the sides and kids can learn to pull on and take on on their own

Nice
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 112
Good pull ups, it could get a little linty but it fits perfectly on my toddler. It stretches which I love. I do love how I could strap and unstrap the sides of the pull up. The designs on the pull up are cute. It holds a lot of pee and soaks it up very well. It’s comfortable on my toddler and the pee and poop doesn’t leak out of it. It is worth the money.
