I listen to babies crying in stereo and you do learn to tune it out and just do what needs to be done. And don't be afraid to put the lil stinker in the crib and walk away if you need a break. <br /><br />Tell TMOG and LW to be careful though, having a newborn during RSV season can be quite the bother. Though I'm not sure when RSV season is in TX though probably about the same as here in the southern CA.Alenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05067605588080483235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833607.post-28389370044711260732010-05-14T10:48:09.824-07:002010-05-14T10:48:09.824-07:00Congratulations to your friends.

My #1 Son was made of iron -- 3 trips to the ER, two trips to the doctor for emergencies, and 8 calls to poison control by his 3rd birthday. <br /><br />The kid could climb anything even before he could walk, and would routinely escape shopping carts and run off until I figured out a harness that he couldn't escape. I had the people at the store I went to trained to intercept him and wait until I came running.<br /><br />Loud toys, words learned from the plumber or neighborhood "Auntie", and lots more fun things await.messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833607.post-45777013932774245632010-05-14T09:49:37.565-07:002010-05-14T09:49:37.565-07:00Too funny!

I rolled out of the basket, down the half flight of stairs that he was on, out of the open door and into the bus stop outside my parents' flat. No trouble with me then or now aside from mild insanity :-)Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17965300148218903639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833607.post-38962205911563904112010-05-13T20:46:00.302-07:002010-05-13T20:46:00.302-07:00The concept of a two-year-old saying "Dilapid...The concept of a two-year-old saying "Dilapidated Motherfucker" is strangely endearing.<br /><br />Many congratulations to your neighbors.Dr. Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04776830530694403715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833607.post-42876308164144919482010-05-13T19:51:29.807-07:002010-05-13T19:51:29.807-07:00Thanks for number one.

All my oocytes remained blissfully single because I chose for that to happen. It makes me sad that in 2010 there are people who still feel like there is something wrong with them if they don't want kids of their own, and don't even especially like children. I don't hate children. I just...don't like them. <br /><br />The verification word for this post is terapped.
