I know this has been a hot topic in the past, but I'd like opinions.

We are planning to baptize our baby. We're not incredibly religious, but it's important to my family and to DF's family. While we were discussing this the other night, DF said he'd really like to baptize his son, SS3 while we're at it. It makes sense that if we're going to do it, we should do it at the same time.

This is something he'd discuss with BM first. I have a few questions I'd like opinions from all of you on:

We have a treat day at work on Fridays, where two people on our floor bring something to share with everyone. The last time it was my turn, I made chili cheese dip w/ tortilla chips. It was a huge hit - everyone loved it. I want to do something different this time but can't decide. Also I don't want to spend more than about $15 on it. The other girl bringing treats that day is bringing something sweet, so I'd rather stay with something salty-ish!

Suggestions on something I could make/bring that will have enough servings for about 30-40 people?

Just got bad news...we should have expected this but for some reason we were in la-la land.

Fiance gets a hefty tax return every year because he works a ton of overtime. He also gets a profit sharing bonus in February. This year, he gets to also claim his son, SS3 (they flip-flop years to claim him). He was anticipating a total sum of at least $7,000 with all of this.

A few months ago we talked to BM about trying to start night-time potty training with SS3. He's totally the type of personality that he's lazy about most things. We figured he is just lazy with his night time peeing, too -- that he knew he had a pull-up on so instead of getting up to go to the bathroom he would just go in it. I vented on here that BM refused to do it. She said she refused to clean up a mess every night.
