  1. You can only be controlled as much as you let some one
  2. They are no different then Barbies, ( more ) teen styled, My daughter has a whole box of them and My scene, ( barbies answer to the Bratz dolls.) These are a doll that come with clothes and they have themes, ( prom,sports, Babies, slumber party,) No different then when Barbie had a baby. If thats what she wants then she should have them, tell your MIL and SIL that your views and theirs are different and if the other doesnt want her daughter to have them thats fine, But you see nothing wrong with them
  3. Beautiful photo's loved them all. I almost bought that same shower curtian, but I am looking for a green one or one that has green in it
  4. See Christmas is not for punishing, every one loves to look just some do not. He really hasnt done anything but ruin his suprises that you worked hard to get. It will be a ho hum Christmas for him as you wont have any suprise to give him, You will not be able to have the joy of seeing that amazement in his eyes. So he already lost. My son did this one year and it hurt him because he couldnt be suprised and Christmas morning was no fun, That to him was punishment enough and he never ever thought to snoop again,
  5. I love to decorate and no one really comes over so I do not get to share my house, This stared 13 years ago with a couple of things, and every year but this one I have added, Funny thing is every thing seems to go in the same place every year, Dont know why but it does. I am not done with the inside as I still have the living room to do, I will add these once the room is done, I also need to finish up loading pictures of the outside, and some more on the inside, So check back and see if I finally got done. Hope you all enjoy my house, It looks more festive in person, pictures leave it flat http://illinoismomof4.tripod.com/

  20. I think all the changes you made this year were awesome, I was a little confused at first and not use to all the subforums but that was easy to overcome. I dont think you need to add any thing other then maybe a recipe forum for holiday cooking and baking
  21. My daughter has had the same boy like her since Kindergarden., and she likes him, Although they have not exchanged anything beyong birthday presents, there is nothing wrong with puppy love as long as it is just that, She know that she can not date as she is only 9 but if she wants to call him her boyfriend I see nothing wrong with it. As his a boy and they are friends,. I think that gift is perfect.
  22. skorts with leggins are all the rage now, Hillary duff clothes at walmart are cute, My 9 year old girly girly loves skorts, ruffles and vibrant colores, also tights that are funky colors, little beanie caps that Claires has, Italian link braclets and a few charms are cool too. Do not forget the matching hair thingys, got to have them. PJ's are great, also sears has a line of joe monkey clothes that are great some of the shirts come with hand sleeves and gloves,
  23. A good pair of training shoes, a good watch with a stop watch, work out clothes, warm up suit Good gym bag, with her name and the highschools name. arm and leg weights, what sport does she play I think i missed that.
  24. We always did something special that the kids made and incorperated that into a basket, I know my daycare provider wondered once if we kept the things they made and was shocked that I use and put out lots of things my children made in their care, Example you could do is get a picture of your child and the providers or all the children and either put it a frame or decopach (sp) it, I go that one year of all the children that were in the day care at the time mine were. and then put something personal in there, GC. both stuff, coffee and cup HTH
  25. Well Thats when you call Santa
