I think your other siblings sound boring. YOU are fun and witty and I'm glad we're friends.

This 4th one of mine may have been a surprise, but he'll be endless entertainment, too. Although I already had 1 daughter, Ella is still something special. She just knows the whole world loves her, there's no doubt in her mind. Matthew knows he's brilliant and Jackie knows she's creative. I hope we manage to instill that much self-confidence in this little guy, too. Ella will go to school full time next fall, so the baby and I will have a lot of one-on-one time.

Hmmm, how did I miss that post of Buffy's?

I think you're fabulous, Buffy, and the world would be a more dreary place without you. So THERE.

I think you're prettier than your sister, too, Buff. You looked so beautiful in your wedding dress, serene and lovely. Your sister's dress was pretty, but I don't think she held a candle to you.

Mine are easy babies, too. Each one was easier than the last. I'm hoping that means I just got better at the mothering thing and doesn't mean this next kid is going to be Rosemary's child or something.

My solution for everything was nursing. As soon as they made that eh..eh...eh.. pre-crying sound, I just started nursing them to stop them from crying. Matthew gained 3 lbs his first month.

I didn't nurse the first, wish I had, I think he would have been much happier due to less tummy troubles. With the second I did and yep, every time he squawked he got fed.

They were both chunky monkeys, hanging in the 95th percentile for weight.

Geez, Buffy leaves and this thread goes to the dogs, I mean kids.

How 'bout them Raiders?

This is what happens when someone tries to hand me a child.

Demon Poodle

She's in Ur Hallway, Baring her Teef

She no longer has those teeth. Its an old picture. She had a dental a month or so ago and lost 12 toofers.....all the fronts except the bottom left one. Still has all 4 canines and all her chewing teeth except 1.

She is the least aggressive dog ever. LOVES CHILDREN. She bares her teeth out of submission sometimes.....ever see the wolf packs where the submissive wolf is baring his teeth and licking the alpha's face? That is Bella.

I know little dogs often won't tolerate kids, but ms Bella looooooooves them. If a kid kneels down, she will run over and jump in their lap.

I kind of thought she might be smiling.

Our daycare provider has a white Pomeranian who "smiles" like that if she knows you, it's quite hilarious. She's a sweet dog as well.

You have to admit that IS a rather evil looking photo, though. Kind of funny how photos can do that...like the ones that make me look like sweetness and light.

 

[NellaBean]

Yep.

Doesn't this look like an angry horse?

It is actually a horse rubbing its itchy neck/chest on the stall guard....and making stupid faces out of ecstasy LOL. See her puckered lip?

 

[Orchid]

The top lip totally gave it away.

She reminds me of my first dog, Rex. He was a smiler, too.

Rex was a Lhasa Apso/Poodle mix - UGLIEST dog on earth, but he was really charming. He smiled at everything and his teeth were ugly, crooked and yellow. He died my sophmore year of college and even though I've loved other dogs, I've never had another one like him.
