We had a great time. I had said that we would only go to maybe 2 or 3 houses. Mason had such a good time we just kept going. We made it to about 15 houses. He wanted to go into everyones house. We were lucky it was a warn night here so we didn't need to bundle up. I love Halloweeen. Surprising I didn't have to fight to get the Hubby to come and take pictures.

We had the best weather ever. It was so warm the kids only needed light jackets. The twins had a blast!!! Last year they were too little to enjoy it. They actually walked about 3 full blocks before going in their strollers. The older kids went a block ahead and had their first taste of freedom. It was good for me too...

Hi I am a newbie and yes a mother of two but they are all growen up (19yrs and 15yrs) How ever my job as a nanny (He's 3yrs) brought me here... Adult interaction Wish I new of a place like this when my kids were small

Masonsmommy, sounds like you had the same kind of nite we did!

Hi jsmommy, The people here are great. Your right about that, But when you come from A big city like Vancouver....it's a culture shock!!!! Nothing to do when it is cold and snowing!!!

Welcome Suppernanny, good to have you here, i'm sure you'll find out quick that the people here are very pleasant and kind!!!.

Anyways, I have a bit of a problem...My son likes to throw things. Big, small, heavy, light. He usually likes to throw them at my daughters noggin. And that doesnt fly with her so she ends up pushing him, or hitting. He is only like 15 months old and I really dont know how to punish him....any ideas people??


thanks

Hi everyone I'm a 29 yr old stay at home Mom during the day that works P/T to keep my sanity!!! I have a soon to be 3yr(Dec.) old Daughter and a 14 month old Son. My husband and I have been married for 6 years now!

My Alex, my daughter makes it her business to drive her Mommy crazy as much as he can, although when she says "I wuv you Mommy!" it makes all the frustrations go away. Jonathan (my Son) is not quite walking yet, but that is ok within the last 2.5 weeks he has figured out how to pull himself to his knees, then to crawl, then to tansfer from different positions(eg. from sitting to crawling) and finally to pull himself up to stand!!!!!!!!! We were so excited for him we were cheering him on....he just gave us his cute toothy grin!

I missed going out with my kids for Halloween, but they did go trick or treat with my Hubby, Grandma and Great Great Grandpa! I was told they had fun and Alex didn't want to stop, but it was getting to cold, Alex didn't want to wear her coat and Jonathan was getting cold hands. Gotta love Windsor, Ont. weather. It was beautiful during the day, but got pretty chilly at night.

I made Alex a costume that she didn't want to wear...it didn't cost much to make it, but I was a little bummed out she didn't want to wear it.

I hope that everyone else had a great Halloween.....now we have to make it through Christmas. Does anyone have any ideas what to get a 14 month old boy?????? I got a few playskool cars, but what else can I get him????

jsmommy. i live in wetaskiwin. not too far from you really. not for long though. im outta here as soon as we get a down payment on a house. where to? who knows?

I am very sorry laundrygoddess to hear about your Granny. I really think its a shame that your Aunts wont follow the wishes that she had for a Church service. Its not a time to be cheap.

Our thoughts will be with you tommorow.

(HUGGS)

Not the best of times for you and I know I speak for everyone here to say how sorry we are for your loss, >>>>>GOOD THOUGHTS FOR YOU TODAY<<<<<< As for your aunts....man what a time to be cheap, I feel real bad. Hope everything goes ok Laundrygoddess!!!

Hey everyone. I am a mother of two boys, 3 years old and 5 months. I am on maternity leave. I usually work at a childcare center. My oldest went to teh same center I worked at. And my youngest will go there as well. I live with my fiance. We have been together for over 7 years now. We met when I was 17, I am now 24. he is 31...AYCARUMBA!!!

I am currently repainting my house. we moved her in february and before we moved in I painted the washrooms and the bathrooms. Now I am doing the living room, playroom, kitchen and hallways

I'm sorry laundrygoddess, my nanny died dec 15 1999 a day after her 69t bday 9 days before mine 10 before xmas, I was really close with her.

I have the same problem SAHD. Mason throws stuff all the time. Mostly when he was told not to touch something he runs over to one of his toys and throws it. He has thrown stuff at me and for fun he will take whatever he can find and hit his brother in the head with it. I don't know what to do about this. I tell him everytime he does it that it is not nice to throw things but don't know what else to do. He is 21 months.

emily does the same thing, I take the toy away and make her sit in her chair for 3 mins, it's been working. shes the same age as mason.

I saw that in another post that Emily was born on January 27th 2005 MissyEmily. That is Masons birthday as well

omg thats cool! what time? emily was born at 8:45pm.
