    The ex in laws

    I have a great buddy who does the same. I think it's great too. I was married once before and we didn't have kids and I don't keep in touch with the old in-laws.

    School Bus

    My son went through this too. He stood up for himself and told the kid to cut it out. Once the bully knew it didn't bother him anymore, he moved on. I'm pretty sure if your child used tear gas he would be arrested or suspended.

    Favorite board games

    We have a family game night every couple of weeks at my house. What are your favorite board games? I love Monopoly still. I'm looking for some ideas of what we can play.

    34 Am I getting old?

    You can be a dad at any age, it is totally up to you. I would not wait until just the right time though, it seems to never come. Kids are blessings and whenever it happens it happens.

    Finding a babysitter.

    We actually have tried out a lot of neighborhood teenage girls. We have family members too but it's always good to have a back-up plan. I always ask the girls if they took the babysitting class.

    Custody

    I'm not sure about that. I mean how much do you trust your ex-wife? If nothing is written or signed by the courts can't either of you pretty much do anything? I would be leery.

    Bowling

    We go bowling a lot. We like to do the moonlight bowling where they turn off the lights and only light up the lanes. That is cool! The kids love it too.

    The dreaded MIL

    I love my MIL too, she is awesome. When she comes around she takes the kids and me and the wife get to go do something fun. She is the first person we call too when we need a babysitter.

    Pumpkin carving.

    Oh yeah we carve a lot of pumpkins. My kids actually do the majority of it. They can make them scary or however they want. Of course right now it's way too early too start carving them, they would rot before Halloween.

    Heading back to see family

    I can't wait! We are taking a trip back home to see my family. I have a couple of cousins and a sister that we are going to see. We only make this trip every 5 years or so. They make the trip to see us every couple.

    Oh no - it's sympathy weight gain for her. She is not gaining but she will. You need to get exercising again! Get active - you want to be healthy for your new child.

    Halloween

    I love Shrek and Donkey is my favorite - I bet he will be cute. I don't know yet what my kids want to be. It's always something that they change their mind 100 times before the big day.

    Time to start the furnace

    My whole family is complaining already about being cold. It's September! I tell them to put more clothes on, no more shorts! I think tonight it will be time to start the furnace. Have you started yours yet?

    Pellet stoves

    We have the chance to pick up a pellet stove for pretty cheap. I really want to get it but my wife is not sure about it. How can I convince her it's the right thing to do.

    Working Out The Discipline

    That is good to hear, I've seen far too many butt heads about discipline. It's something that needs to be talked about early on. Parents have to stand united or the kids will know how to get out of discipline.

    It is official!

    Yeah! I was waiting to hear you say this, I've been following you in other threads! I'm so glad and happy for you! Take it easy and I bet you will pamper the heck out of your wife throughout the pregnancy.

    Too cold for a cookout

    We always have a cookout over Labor Day weekend. It's pretty chilly out and it is also rainy. I think we are having a cook-in. BBQ ribs in the slow cooker, salt potatoes and lots of snacky things. We are inviting the family up still though. Anyone else having a cookout for the holiday?

    How much is too much?

    Awww how sweet. How long have you been together? I would say that it's fine if she likes it. My wife loves to be shown that I love her, I think it's the actions more than the words though.

    Card games

    Oh yeah! We love to play cards and board games. We usually play euchre with friends at least 1 time a month in the colder months. We also play "The Newlywed Game" and "Catchphrase" a lot.

    Not wanting the job

    I agree and I find it quite sad. I have invited both of them to go to the football game this Friday night. I thought maybe if the 4 of us do things together then he will see how much the kid wants him to be a dad.
