I have a few notes to the toothfairy from my kids in my jewellry box along with some of the baby teeth. Whoa thats quite the jump, my step daughter gets $10.00 and a present! It use to be fun trying to explain to my son who was the same age as Bria, why his step-sister got so much. I told my kids that I had asked the tooth fairy to just leave a little and to give the rest of the money to kids who were hungry, that seemed to work, as for the present I just said that the tf didn't bring presents and I thought that Bria's mom must have had something to do with it, and I'm just not that nice, lol.

No I don't think the same week, at the same resort is a great idea but I see no big deal if arranged at another resort so the weeks over lap so that family members may be able to make both weddings. The summer I married my first husband there was a wedding every weekend for the whole entire summer, it was no big deal I never felt that one wedding took away from another. Make your plans and when and if he is planning a dw then he can figure out the details of what works best, I would't worry about it now, it may never come to light.

There would be no option for me, with my children, it would have to fall out on it's own because they would freak if I tried to pull it out. Liam is turning 6 in april and so far no loose teeth. Good luck, what's the going rate for a tooth in your house, it's a toonie in ours.

Keep your plans and let him work around you! he can always, IF his plans even become legit, have his wedding at a resort near yours the week before or after your wedding. People who want to go to both can overlap their vacations, but that's his problem to figure out not yours:)

The boxing for wii kicks ass, great workout too, it's my favourite! We love guitar hero, my kids are getting rock star for easter, then we can have a battle of the bands with my sister's and my brother's family, lol. Dance, dance revolution is a great workout and lot's of fun, it's funny to watch people try it also.

Takes alot more then a song to make me cry, I wish I was more setimental, Everton is the more setimental one in our relationship:)

well Courtney are you a Mrs yet? Congratulations, post pics soon!

Now let's be honest till we are really ready for a potential long term relationship, the bad girls/boys are always going to be more appealling. Have you really thought about what you are ready for? Are you really looking for the right one or do you get blinded by the hot factor. One of my best friends is the hottest, pretiest girls I have ever met, guys LOVE her, hell girls LOVE her (another reason why guys love her) Well she goes out with guys and they are so in awe of her but not for much more then a month. Then they say whay didn't you tell me she was nut's, and nut's she is, but damnit she is one hot, fun, nut job (I love her). She never hides it but guys are just too stupid in the beginning to see it because they can't see past the face, the boobs, the ass, and her up for anything personality to see how truly insane she really is. anyway my point is it's most likely you that you need to take a look at, not the women, because trust me there are lot's of good one's out there you just have to work a little harder to find us

I say go for it also, I just wanted to put the flip side out there. I will always love and care for my first husband, after all I've known him my whole life, and he is the father of my children and still one of my best friends, but E would not like it if I had a tattoo of my committment to my first husband on my ring finger. Having said that I think it looks really cool, I especially love the celtic designs being an Irish girl myself:)

I am going to be the kill joy of this group, but since my 12 year marriage to my first husband, the father of 3 of my children and my childhood sweetheart, didn't last forever, I don't think it is such a great idea. As much as I love E, and am pretty sure he is forever, shit happens! I am a realist, not a romantic, seen too much, been through too much, and know too much. Most likely not a popular response but an honest one:)

Don't kid yourself even with the free symbolic weddings there are costs associated with it and no one in the DR will refuse a chance to make money. I have not heard of one bride who had a symbolic ceremony in Punta cana who was actually asked for proof that they were married. I think if you arrive after months of planning, wedding dress in hand, guests staying at the resort no one is going to question that you are just trying to get away with a free ceremony for the fun of it. It's not like you can try and pull one over on them my saying you want a symbolic ceremony over the real wedding package, because anyone who does this at the end of the day won't be married since a judge is not involved in the symbolic ceremony.

Yes it does, you could purchase 2 wedding bands one for each side of the e-ring, and use one for each ceremony. We just took off our wedding bands and gave it back to each other for the symbolic ceremony. I then had both our dates engraved into our wedding bands.

You look beautiful, congratulations:)

Melissa, that is so pretty, brownie points for dh. Happiness today was hanging with my sister and brother on St. Paddy's day:)

Okay melissa,I will put it on my calender, and we have lot's of space to put your drunk ass up for the night:)

Why are you coming out my way Melissa:) This year we are going to a place called Reilly's it is an irish pub with pool tables and live irsh music. When my dad was alive we always went to a pub around the corner called Fitzpatrick's, it has become so popular though that there atre crazy line ups, and last year we all went there and I ended up being really weepy because I was missing my dad (1st St, Patricks day without him), so this year I think it's time for somewhere new. I really hope it will be good. I love St.Patrick's day in a bar because it is the friendliest bar night of the year, everyone is so happy and very socialble, you get all ages and a great atmosphere, I look forward to it every year. Everton has this year off so we are heading out early this year so hopefully we can avoid any lineups. So am I saving a table for you Melissa, or is Vegas winning out:)

I am a St. paddy's day freak, I drive my friends crazy, I am also really irish. We are going to the pub around 4:30 pm with a bunch of friends (about 20 of us) for some irish stew and we will drink and party til the wee hours of the morning:) My sister, brother and I will buy a round of Irish whiskey for everyone and we will toast my dad, who we got the love of St. Paddy's day fromhe will be missed

Mine is not showing up either because I am on my mac computer instead of my pc.

Martha what a wonderful gift, I am so very happy for you!

Just buy those tablets that you can add to children's bath water to make it a different colour, that way it is easy to travel as it is not a liquid. You can get them at any walmart.

It would be great we could do a harbour cruise and a brunch the next day, then that would give people another option to maybe join all of us if they couldn't make the Sat.

Today is a good day, not much bothering me

What you are experiencing is perfectly normal, trust me, we all go through this and we will all most likely have moments like this our entire relationship, hmmmmm did I make you feel any better, lol. Seriously the demands of life especially when you have kids make it really difficult to stay all romantic with one another. I really believe that if you can make your self happy then your relationship will follow suit. I know that as much as I love Everton I need time with my girlfriends to just have fun. I try and do dinner with my friends once a month I am always happier when I get home. Exercise also makes me feel better. Everton and I also do a date night every 2 weeks, we usually have dinner and drink wine it make's us feel more connected to one another because to be honest with you the rest of the time we barely have time to nod at each other. Everton can grate on my last nerve with most of his household habit's, unfortunately I don't think he will ever change so I accept that I want to throw dishes at him about every other day, but by the time we settle down for the evening he has usually redeemed himself by doing something sweet. He really is a very loving sweet man I just have to remind myself, over and over, and over again of that, lol. Hang in there this will pass, trust me you will find your moments that make it all worth it, you just have to take a step back and take a deep breath so that you can see clearly.

I have no idea what I walked down the isle to, lol, we hired a mariatchi band and they played beautiful spanish music as they walked behind me. Everyone says it was really beautiful, but honestly it is a blur to me, but I know I felt really good so it must have been:)
