XMAS - Jip your BKids or SKids?

pixie1024's picture

So my FH says that we should only get the kids BS8, SD7, & SD5 ONE GIFT EACH this year!!! My son lives with us and his girls come over EOW. They are seriously spoiled getting EVERYTHING they ask for from FH and BM. My son on the other hand doesnt have that luxury because I cant afford it and his BioDad is a deadbeat. So, I think its up to me to make sure my son has a good christmas this year since his birthday was last weekend and was really let down that he only got cards ($10 inside one).

RE: Lying Child Post

Saw it on someones post yesterday and responded. Its funny how things happen, but as fate would have it my wife went out to dinner last night with some friends while I watched the kids. My children wanted to watch TV in my room while laying down in bed so I put on a show they liked and let them. My SD went into the room with them and laid with them on the bed as well. I went downstairs to the living room and watched tv myself. Kids went to bed a little while later and wife came home and asked me why I didn't let SD watch TV?

Do your skids ever say things that just sound "rehearsed"?

This happened this past weekend with me. We were driving in the car and talking about the upcoming Halloween party at the skids school where I am head-room parent to SD10. We were talking about costumes and such..........and then the "rehearsed" talk.

SD8 - "can we get Halloween costumes this weekend?"

Me - "I don't know if we're gonna have time this weekend because of pumpkin carving, and my mom's bday party, and you know you guys are going to BM's early on Sunday because daddy and me are going to the football game, so maybe BM can take you on Sunday."

SD6 had done a total 180, for the worst

This is the first time I post. I don't know what to do or if the feelings I'm having are justified. I have been in a relationship with my BF for over a year and we were friends for about a decade before we decided to date. He married his girlfriend from high school about 6 years ago because it was his duty as a man, since he got her pregnant. At the time we were friends and I was one of many friends who advised him against this. He was 21 and she was 20 at the time and since high school their relationship had been far from great.

How did your skids react when they found out you where pregnant?

I'm just wondering, because my DH haven't told them yet, and they are coming for Xmas and I will be 22 weeks prego, I think he is waiting to tell them by then, but his all family knows and they are big mouths so they probably know already, I don't know, I was just wondering, because I have no idea how are they going to take the news, I get along good with the skids when they are here, well not with SS6 anymore he decided this year that he doesn't like me, I think SD13 is not going to like it because she is soooo into her and likes to have everybody's attention, so the only one I think is go

Every year - for probably about 12 years now - instead of celebrating Halloween, My family and I have a "Harvest Fest". It started out at my church and sometimes we have it at different families members homes. Well it is at my home this year. We all dress our kids up in some type of costume - we eat chili and hot dogs - we give gift bags for the kids- we have a game night and watch movies.

THANKSgiving!

Oh boy, where do I start?

Nutty McDougal is up to her tricks yet again. We had gotten so much resolved with the use of an attorney and the courts, but now she's acting foolish again. WHY?? Well, I'm not crazy so I can only imagine, but HER -> Nutty McDougal's problem is this: Why wasn't she told/invited to my FH's grandmother's surprise birthday party the Saturday after Thanksgiving?

Feeling very down today – need your input

DH shared an e-mail with me from his ex. Pregnant SD17 is wreaking havoc with BM, and BM can’t wait to ship her back to DH as soon as the baby is born and given up for adoption. This girl is a master manipulator, grade A b---- (which BM never believed when we tried to tell her, but now knows full well what SD17 is capable of and has stated “I don’t think that I’ll be able to have a relationship after she goes back to you”). Nice.
