Just back from the GDC
-
And I thought I was still hung over when I heard the stuff about GM. Wow. Too bad they didn't do it to all of the banks and anybody else begging for taxpayer money. And, I nearly forgot. While at the GDC we negotiated two new contracts. The company is going to be busy, I am glad I sold it. And, most importantly, My wife and I just found out we expecting our second child in November! I'd rather share it with this group since we've bonded and all that since the soapbox has become forum non grata :)

Congratulations. What do yo have now ( sex/age ) ? Mine are 12 and 8 and I am finally having a vasectomy. Although, there's been a lot of sex lately, so I am scared she may get pregnant in the meantime ( she's off the pill, not sure why, she doesn't want more )

I am ready to get snipped today. We weren't trying for long, probably less than 2 weeks, before we hit pay dirt.

Mike - typical white guy. The USA does have universal healthcare, but you have to pay for it. D'oh. Thomas Mann - "Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil." The NYT - my leftist brochure. Calling an illegal alien an “undocumented immigrant” is like calling a drug dealer an “unlicensed pharmacist”. God doesn't believe in atheists, therefore they don't exist.

Thanks, yeah nothing like a little extra of that 'something' that my 3 year old has brought us.

All else pales to insignificance. In your child's life I hope he (or she) does four things; lie, steal, cheat, and drink. When your child lies, he should do it to save a friend. When he steals, he should steal someone's heart. When he cheats, I hope he cheats death. And when he drinks, have him hoist one for me! You have my sincerest congratulations and best wishes.

Congratulations mate. We have an 8 month old and I was wondering how long it will take to forget the hard stuff about having a baby and start thinking about the next one. Three years seems just about right! Congratulations again, I hope you kept all the baby paraphernalia

I'll have to work on the lieing and stealing but, I am sure I can introduce him/her to a bit of drink.

Well, that sucks. Being able to say 'honey, aren't we supposed to be trying' for two years, is a glorious thing. Four years apart is what ours are, too. My first was a daughter tho. Either way, kids are a lot of fun. I could go back to having babies again in a second, but not while having a 12 and 8 yo to run after at the same time :-)

It seemed that around two and half years old I started to miss the 'baby' stuff. But, I didn't think we would want to deal with one in diapers and one seemingly fighting to stay in them.

Thanks Josh. We kept everything except the stuff our little crusher destroyed.

My wife's uncle did it. How he manages is beyond me. He is the most easy going man I have ever met.

Ill swap! We've had no more that three hours of consecutive sleep in over three months. One advantage I guess is there is next to no chance of another one coming along in a hurry.

You're too sensitive. I never stayed up with either kid, I don't have the equipment to feed them. I know men who got their wives to express milk and did the red eye shift, but, not me.

It's not a question of feeding, he wakes because he wont resettle himself not because he's hungry. Unfortunately our house is not big enough for me to sleep far enough away from him to not be woken up. We've done the controlled crying thing, we've followed the advice of the baby health care center, of tresillian[^], of some of the books available on the subject, tried every old wives tail etc it's just the luck of the draw that we ended up with a baby that doesnt like to sleep.
