I must admit that I’m changing a lot of the way things are being done at Dallas Single Mom. I actually got dinged by Google for not having quality content and with the changes being made to Facebook, I realize that I can’t be all things to all people and really get the content you are looking for. So I decided to stick to what I know which is being a single mom. I would still love to feature deals and giveaways, but I’ll be doing that over on a new site that I own called, Dallas Mom Deals. See my site below:

Handling Co-parenting and Halloween?
For quite a number of years, I’ve allowed my ex to take my daughter trick or treating. While it’s not something written into the Divorce Decree I realize the tradition of trick or treating is near and dear to many parent’s hearts as all holidays are. As a single or divorced parent, if you share custody, how do you handle holidays like Halloween that are not specifically spelled out in the Custody Plan?
The beginning of Autumn signifies the holiday season so it’s best for Co parenting parties to come together and communicate with each other early about holiday plans. Sometimes you’ll have to negotiate and you will not be able to take your children or be with them at all the activities -

For holidays like Halloween where festivities are only once a year of trick or treating, you can check out either of my articles for things like Haunted Houses, pumpkin patches or other trick or treating events leading up to Halloween. I have also found your local church may have activities and many area shopping malls or centers will also be passing out candy.

So how do you agree or disagree about sugar or candy?
Food and diets are big sticking points between divorced parents. Typically in Texas with a joint conservatorship you really have no control over what goes on at the ex’s house. In my situation, my daughter is prone to cavities. As much as we brush our teeth and floss daily, when she goes to my ex’s house she is not brushing her teeth. So I’ve built a special system with her about teeth brushing and made it a special process for her. When she goes to her dad’s house, she takes her brush with her and it’s a part of her routine. That way SHE initiates the activity rather than waiting for her dad or me to tell her to do it. I really can’t tell if she’s doing it or not but if it becomes a part of her routine it will be second nature to her. As for candy and sweets, I don’t have much candy in the house and if I do, I limit the number of pieces a day. How do you provide candy control in your house?Halloween Costume Gallery
My two daughters are going to be Disney princesses for Halloween. My mom found their costumes at Ross for just $7.99. Then we get to work on creating headbands and scepters. As for my one year old, I will probably not dress him up unless it’s a Halloween t-shirt. In Texas it is very hard to decide on what to wear because you never know what the weather will be like: mild or cold?!?! There are some cute costumes though that I had to share with you because they are just so darn cute. I was originally going to dress up my son like Woody from Toy Story:
