Hello, MOms, My son will be turning two in February and I do not know what to do. He loves balls - any and all. He lies the monkey from Curious George and Jungle Book. I would like to do something with balls but I can't think of anything for his age. His firth b-day was Happy Feet which was a bug hit! Any suggestions would be great on some kind og ball themed 2nd year b-day party. Thanks!

Looking for Simple Cookie Cake Recipe-hurry

I am looking for a super simple and delicious cookie cake recipe (sugar or choc chip) that can be made either in a 13 x 9 or on a bar style cookie sheet/pan. Also, if anyone has a whipped style frosting recipe that is like the stores use that would be helpful as well. I need it for my son's party this weekend. Thanks a bunch!

Need Help with Baby Shower Decoration Ideas

I am hosting a baby shower at my church for a first time mom to be. The room is very large and I would like to take just a section of the room and use it for the shower. I would like ideas on how to create the feeling of a smaller room. There are no partitions and I would like inexpensive ideas. I have 6 ft tables available and round tables. Since my childen are much older now, I would also like ideas from new moms on types of little, fun gifts to give that I could incorporate into the decorations.

Goody Bags or Not??

I'm planning on having a party for my daughter who will be turning 3 at Pump It Up and need some advice about goody bags. Is it really necessary to give goody bags away to guests?? Honestly, I don't see a point to those goody bags, but was wanting some input from other moms. The kids will get to bounce for 80 minutes and then they go into the party room for cake and juice....I'm having the party at 3:00 so really don't need to provide other kinds of food since I don't want to ruin their appetite for dinner. Can kids and parents just go...

Games or No Games?

Birthday Party Place

I am interested in finding a place to host a birthday party for my daughter turning 6 and son turning 5. Their birthdays are three days apart so we usually throw a combined birthday, so need something fun for girls and boys. I want to find something different than Chuck E Cheese or Pump it Up. We live in North Dallas so close to us is good too. Also relatively inexpensive (less than $10 per child) since there will be around 25 kids attending. Yes we want it all- close, different, inexpensive, for both girls and boys. Any ideas on places?...

Personalized Baby Shower Thank You Notes

Our first baby is due in February and our baby shower is in December, for which I'm ordering thank you notes. Is it good etiquette to have our baby's name personalized on the thank you note before she arrives? We are set on the name and will not change it, but I wonder if it is strange to send out personalized or monogrammed baby thank you notes prior to her birth?
