I live very close to you!

We pay over $700/month (though we pay 4 times a year) We are in Waterloo. It depends on your house assessed value and what city you are in.

We had a tree fall on our house. Luckily the damage wasn't huge. The tree that fell was owned by the city, but in falling it destroyed two of our trees :( Given the size of the tree we were lucky...

Sorry you are going through this. My 1 year old spends an awful lot of time sleeping in my bed and we did cosleep with him from birth, but as soon as he got a little bit older (maybe 5 months, I...

I had a home birth with my 3rd (after 2 hospital births) What are you nervous about in particular? There are a few ladies on here who I know have had home births. You can PM me if you'd like.

Congrats!

I'm so frustrated with all the spam. Now wonder no one is coming here. I can't even find new posts from real people that I recognized. I loved using this forum to chat with people and keep up with...

We're in Waterloo, my oldest is in JK at Empire. It has a really good reputation, I have no complaints so far. It is also French Immersion.

ETA: It's every other day this year, but will be every...

We like the one at Mountsberg, it's not too far, maybe 45 minutes from here...

Darn, that would be me and DH! How annoying.

Kids House playgroup at the downtown community center has a lot of crunchy moms who go to it. Also, La Leche League if you are nursing has a lot of those types, they meet the first Thursday morning...

Totally agree, Fairview has a long ways to go before it ever becomes upscale!

Wow, that's surprising, I don't find Fairview to be "upscale" at all! I mean they have a Walmart in there. BAB is kind of upscale for kids anyways. Kind of disappointed KW is losing that store,...

I had 2 births at GRH and one at home (my most recent)

There is no nursery except the NICU, if your babies are well they room in with you (you don't have a choice) If you choose to formula feed...

There's one in the schoolyard of Our Lady of Lourdes school in Waterloo off of Alexandra Street near Roslin. There's also one on Allen street in the Mary Allen park

Welcome! I have a baby born in May 2012 as well as an almost 3 year old and almost 5 year old.

I hate Old Navy too - mostly because everything I have bought there has fallen apart - both kids clothes and adult clothes. I haven't been to that store in a few years.

Same here. Oh well, I will do something fun with him Thursday

Last time we had family pictures was with Diane last weekend! We were happy to have her snap our holiday card pictures. Would love to win this giveaway and have some photos done in the spring for...

That's an amazing grand prize!

I'm sorry you are having trouble. I have struggled with low milk supply with all 3 of my children. It is really frustrating to feel like your body isn't working the way it should. It is also...

Our favourite indoor winter activity is baking cookies or sitting down with a nice mug of hot chocolate after playing outside.

We'd love to win the passes as we haven't been to playfit in a really...

I would love to try one of the cloths, theidea of cleaning without chemicals is appealing to me as my children put everything in their mouth and lick surfaces all the time (I know, so gross!)

I've tasted some really great Epicure dips at parties that I've been to. A good spice mix can make a big difference in a meal too - going from very bland to very tasty with just a few spoonfuls.
