Great ideas! My daughter wants a frozen party too! It's an epidemic :)

Great thread with awesome ideas!

Me too. Bump

This describes my son perfectly. I never considered ADD. I'll be interested in responses. He just turned 10

That is precious!

I have a 10 and 11 yo boy and girl. They both love their pillow pets and take them on trips, sleepovers and to lounge around in the floor. The pure joy you will see on their faces will make it worth it.

I work part time in the evenings as well. My schedule varies, sometimes I am home by 8, 10:30 and there will be an occasional midnight. It has been a big adjustment for us as well. I am utitlizing my crockpot more, I don't get up with hubby (just give him a kiss as he leaves), my kids are 10 and 11 so they let me sleep in. The latest I can sleep has been 9. I try to get school going by 9:30 or 10. Making a meal plan has been helpful and I try to get all the prep done for hubby. We try to eat supper together but sometimes I need to leave the house by 4, so they eat and I eat when I get home. I take a 20 minute power nap almost every day. It's my sanity saver. Not getting enough sleep is hard but the naps do help! I usually do it during the kids daily reading/quiet time. Most days we get all the school work done. Making a list for the kids has been helpful. They just check it off while they go. On days where I feel more rested, we attack the extras and get them done. I tell the kids that this is a busy season for our family, we just have to work together to get it all done and do the best we can! good luck

I agree with signs. My husband and I watched it at a drive in surrounded by cornfields. I nearly peed my pants! The exorcism of Emily rose gave me nightmares. I stopped watching scary stuff after that one.

ours are going out on monday! so much fun :)

You all would die at my house! We burn wood and the living room can get 85. There are times we have windows and doors open cause it gets so hot lol! Our bedroom stays about 65 so we sleep better when it's cooler. I like a warm cozy house. It's just right about 75:)

Would love to participate. Dd10 and ds9. Will pm info later.

We would also love to participate!

I'm curious to know how to turn it back on, since I have hid everyone's signature now too!
