armymom`s poll Show results | Hide results


Baby-poll poll Do you think a birthday party for a 1 year old at a Jumping Jacks (a jump house/moon walk type place) is aprropriate? My house is too small to host that many people and his party will be in October. There will be many older children attending as well.

that sounds great!! I did my sone 1st at the ZOO bc i never want an in home party ( i dont want to clean up and make up games haha) I think the kids would have fun!

I think it sounds great! Perfect for a mixed age party. I looked into one of those places also. Ours is sooo pricey here. Sarah`s b-day is in Nov. and our place is super tiny. I am in the same boat too. :)

I dont know all I saw when picturing that was big kids knocking little kids over and lots of crying... if they have seperate areas for different age groups though that would be perfect.

i think something like that is a great idea, i am considering places to hold journeys first birthday as well, also in october with older kids and our house is pretty small too... another good reason ive heard to have the party outside the home (which to me makes perfect sense) is that when the party is over, its over. you dont have to kick the stragglers out of your house to put the baby down for a nap or something.

If you have alot of kids who are a little older, that place will be great. The thing about 1st bdays is they are still babies, and will remember nothing, generally get overwhelmed by all the people, and nap thru their party, lol. But even that young, they love those bouncy things. I bet alot of the parents will take their shoes off and jump in too.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
