It is our favorite time of year at www.mom-stuff.com. We love Halloween. Come and visit and get some fun ideas to make this your best Halloween season. We have everything you need:

How tp Plan a Halloween Family Party
Family is were all the fun begins. Every year our family has an annual Halloween party and we wanted to share with all of you our experiences. This will let you take the ideas and make your own family fun. You can use these ideas and make them your own by adding your families personalities to them. If you do not have extended family around you get together with other moms and plan your Halloween Party together. This is a good way for everyone to make more friends. “Our most basic instinct is not for survival but for family. Most of us would give our own life for the survival of a family member, yet we lead our daily life too often as if we take our family for granted.” ~Paul Pearshall . . . keep reading

Check out Chock a Baby

Tuesday, July 19th, 2011

Today I want to share a new web site with you.  Check out Carrie’s site and tell me what you think.

Chockababy: a community of gushing parents and grandparents, friends, neighbors, and families. Here is your family’s new online home. I received this email this morning.

Hi Dianne!

Thanks for your contributions to moms and our need for support from each other! I am emailing you today to see if you would want to share a new website with your readers. My name is Carrie. My sister, Nicky, and I started an online, sharable baby book called chockababy.com We are two sisters who are moms (mine are 4 and 1, Nicky has 2 year old twin boys). We didn’t love the options we had for tracking our babies’ milestones and sharing updates with our families. So in the midst of motherhood and part-time jobs, we have started Chockababy (pronounced Cha-kuh-baby). We think your readers would appreciate the features of this site and the user-friendliness for super-busy moms.

Here are a few highlights: (more…)
