Haha! I had it done, in front of a class full of med students! Felt like a damn lab rat. Only thing missing was stadium seating.

Sorry, just saw these. My wife is a Young Living distributor and the main ones used for Harper are Thieves (to deal with overall viral issues) and Frankincense diluted in a carrier oil (grape seed, apricot, etc) which targets the cough. She is coughing more today than she was before but she got through the fever and lost voice without major coughing fits. Oils aren't a magic bullet that works 100% of the time all the time, but they do at a minimum lessen a lot of issues and they work far more effectively than I ever thought they would when she first got into essential oils. For being as sick as she actually is, you wouldn't know it by looking at her. That's a win enough for me in the book.
Just picked up the kids halloween costumes last night, it's always so much fun watching them get excited with what they get to dress up as, Leonardo TMNT for my son and Elsa Frozen for my daughter! Sunday night is the first of many halloween parties/gatherings!!!
This year my son is a Death Trooper - a zombie Storm Trooper. His costume's pretty neat looking. I'm going to miss him trick or treating though, my daughter has a marching band competition down in CT on Halloween that I'll be chaperoning.

Country Club tonight is doing a Halloween party for members and their kids. Nick is getting his costume on for his second trick or treating session for this year. Over the weekend we rented a house at Ocean Lakes and did the whole thing down there with a few families.
Both of my kids wanted to be carried in by Daddy.

We skipped the toddler bed and went straight for a full size with bedrail. Only had once instance of falling out of bed, and that was 2 years ago probably. Not sure why exactly we skipped the toddler bed since the crib is convertible though.

We did that with my daughter, mostly because her room is bigger and he went into her crib. I'm thinking the toddler bed will be quickly replaced by a twin with a bedrail.

Okay fellow parents, anyone ever heard of the "Switch Witch"? My wife sprung this one on me for Halloween. Apparently it's a new trend where the kids give up a majority of their candy after trick or treating. When they wake up in the morning, the Switch Witch has swapped the candy out for a new toy.
We did that this year, and overall it went well - despite the very last second nature of this where I... er the Switch Witch... had to go to the store late on Halloween night to procure these items. Kept the toys to the $15 range each, and the kids got to keep 15 chocolates each. The rest of the candy will be sent to a local dentist who donates it to an organization that sends it overseas to the military.
Thoughts?

I've seen this in person and on Shark Tank. I haven't used it. Not sure if I'm sold on the idea or not. I guess if it gets the kids to give up the candy then great.

I'm all for it although my wife might not be. She wouldn't be able to steal as much of their candy anymore. She always buys too much candy to pass out every year "by mistake" anyways.
I have not heard of that one. We usually donate the candy to the troops or do a buy back program with the kid's dentist.

We just transitioned my youngest in to his toddler bed. He will be 2 this Saturday. So far so good, but he has his big brother in the same room with him so that helps. My oldest was a bit more difficult to transition. He would just walk in to our room all night.
This is the last year of my son believing in Santa. Kinda makes me a little sad. Anyways, the season begins...the kids had their first Christmas pageant practice last weekend and we bought tickets to a couple of nice Christmas shows.
