    ***the official may 2013 thread***

    We are going with friends and our plan is to get the six kids together and hand them each an envelope which will contain a letter and a word. They have to put it all together and when they do it will say "we are all going together to DISNEY." :) We have gone two other times with just our kids...

    Ottawa

    I'm in Barrhaven too. We went to Disney last June. I am currently trying to figure out how soon we can go back. The Allegiant air option is interesting. Perhaps that will help me convince hubby. :yay::goodvibes

    Honda Pilot

    we have a 2003 Pilot and I highly recommend it. I have three kids and it works well for us. At one time we had two boosters and a car seat in the 2nd row and it worked fine for us. (I'm sure some carseats will be easier than others to fit in.) We use the third row all the time as we are always...

    pool home rentals

    We went in June and used Alexander homes. This was our second experience with them and it was fantastic. Both times we used them the homes were perfect. I had a friend who used them about a year ago and when she arrived their Fridge wasn't working. In less than 2 hours Alexander homes had them...

    Calypso Water Park in Ottawa ??

    They have an area for little ones. There are little slides they can go down that go into ankle deep water. These slides have 2 or three steps to climb. It's a decent size area. They have little hoses with water trickling out that kids can pick up and water fake flowers with. There are some...

    Calypso Water Park in Ottawa ??

    I haven't noticed any deals for hotels and park passes here yet. My family and I bought season passes. We have gone four times. It's very nice. We have been both when it's crowded and when it's empty. This weekend it was really busy. If you arrive around 9:30 you can get into the park fairly...

    Any one else just have an earthquake?

    I'm in Ottawa and we certainly felt it. Apparently the epicenter is only 53km from here. It was scary. Thankfully I was at my kids school watching their talent show so I felt comfort knowing I was with my little ones. I haven't heard of any damage in the city yet. Hopefully its limited.

    WWYD - DD's classmate is nice... but her mother is nasty?

    I think OP is referring to Senior Kindergarten. In Canada kids do two years. Junior and Senior.

    WWYD - DD's classmate is nice... but her mother is nasty?

    I would have to agree that talking to her probably wont fix it. It's unfortunate that she is on your street so you have to see her regularly. If your daughter ends up in a different class for grade one next year there is a pretty good chance they will drift as friends anyway so your problem will...

    Pirates League... Have you done this?

    my three kids did it a couple of weeks ago too. It was really well done. The makeup artists were fantastic and so incredibly nice. All three enjoyed it a lot. We also participated in the Pirate Parade at the end of the day. Just a word of caution if you have little ones.... the parade was well...

    Honda Pilot-2 booster seats + infant car seat

    I have a Honda Pilot and have three kids. We used two boosters and an infant car seat for a long period of time. Infact when my 3rd was born, he was in the infant car seat, the 2nd was in a foward facing carseat(which was wider than the booster) and the oldest was still in a booster. Yes, it's...

    Anyone *not* park-hop?

    We don't park hop either. On our honeymoon dh and I stuck to just one park a day and it was fine. 2 years ago we went with the kids (2,6 and 8) and did the same. Now we are going in June and doing one park a day again. We will arrive for rope drop, stay til 2 or so, go back to the hotel to swim...

    Anyone wax at home?

    OMG I laughed so hard I was crying and proceeded to give myself an asthma attack. I can't remember when I read something so funny. When I first read it I thought it was your experience CathrynRose and I kept feeling bad for laughing. That is classic. :rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2:

    Just Back...Very Busy for SWW

    We were thinking of going June 11th instead of the 10th b/c of Star Wars but now I am just not sure. We are not staying on site and the 11th is an EMH day so we will already be late into the park compared to some. It's our only day at HS so maybe it's not worth it? :confused3
