Well. After a little more than 37 weeks, we're expecting our 3rd child any time now. All the sonogram's we've done say its a little girl. :) After 2 boys, we thought we'd try a 3rd and last time for a girl...looks like I finally did it right. :) Since this will be our last, and both mine and my wife's families only grand-daughter we're looking forward to this. My mother has already said she's ready to take her shopping for new clothes every weekend. This one is gonna be spoiled like crazy. :) Until yesterday, the baby was breach. The doc's performed a version in the hospital yesterday, and successfully turned the baby so she is head down. For those of you who don't know...a version is an external way of turning a baby inutero. Not too confortable on mom, but safe (so they tell me). I'm on pins and needles now waiting for her to go into labor. I'm used to the prospect of being a dad for the third time, but because this one is a girl, its gonna be a whole new experience. Both my Mom and my Mother in-law are going to be in the delivery room. I invited them both considering this is gonna be our last child and the first girl in both our families. Wish me well. :) Frank PS. She's not dating till she's 35. And the shotgun is already on order. "Keyboard Error - Press F1 to Continue"

don't mention it. You might could give me some useful suggestions though. Keeping children out of my new pond. I should specify - keeping other peoples children out of my pond. Not thrilled at the idea of putting up a fence as it nearly defeats what I am trying to accomplish and I do live in a place where there is a fair-to-middling chance of children wandering into my yard - hence into my pond. I would hate to have to replace the pump cause some kid fell in, clogged the filter and cause the pump to burn-out. (just kidding) See the thread Spring/Summer project posted by me early today for more details (I think Nevin brought up the point). --------------------------------------------- It's amazine how simeple life can be when one get's his head out of his ass...embly If they don't get the basic research and learning skills down then they'll end up having a very hard life (Either that or they'll become managers) - Micheal P Butler

My boss has one of these. And, funny as it may be, he isnt so much worried about kids as he is about critters. :) You see, he has a few several year old coy (dunno about the spelling, but they are really big gold fish) in this pond and has lost a few to birds. They swoop in. Grab a fish, and fly off. Cats can be delt with with plain old black pepper sprinkled around the pond. But kids...they will always be curious about what's going on there. You could try to include in your plans a natural fence. ie. A fence of large shrubbery or bushes lining your property line. Good luck. Frank "Keyboard Error - Press F1 to Continue"

Thanks Jon. Jon Sagara wrote: Not to worry, though. She does have two older brothers, after all. Somehow, I think you're right. I think they will be more protective of her than I will. "Keyboard Error - Press F1 to Continue"
> I think they will be more protective of her than I will. Indeed. I sat between my little sister (10 months younger) and her boyfriend this evening. We all got smashed but damnit, he ain't touching her till that wedding ring is on her finger and they have a sheet with a hole in it. And if they don't get married at all, then all the better. :rolleyes: Enjoy your third child, bring her up well, instill good values, teach her to drink a pint in 4 seconds flat but most of all, just show her love. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Christopher Duncan quoted: "...that would require my explaining Einstein's Fear of Relatives" Crikey! ain't life grand?

I can't even drink a pint in 4 seconds...so if she can do it, great. I was watching TV a few weeks ago and I saw a man talking about his friend and his friends daughter. He said that he wanted to bring his daughter up knowing what a good man was, so that she would not get involved with a loser. What he did was at about her 8th birthday he started taking her out on Dad / Daughter dates. He dressed up in a suit. He opened the car door for her. He gave her flowers. He treated her like a lady. Always as a gentleman would. This way his daughter would expect this, and would expect nothing less. I like that idea. "Keyboard Error - Press F1 to Continue"
