Congrats to all the "papa's". Cherish them while you have them. They grow up way to fast.
'Course, if their like mine, they're like boomerangs. You "throw" them out to college, they graduate and then come back.

 

The first word you teach him to say is RAM

Here’s one for all the expecting Dads & Moms

HOW TO KNOW WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE READY TO HAVE KIDS:
MESS TEST
Smear peanut butter on the sofa and curtains. Place a fish
stick behind the couch and leave it there all summer.
TOY TEST
Obtain a 55-gallon box of Legos (or you may substitute
roofing tacks). Have a friend spread them all over the house.
Put on a blindfold. Try to walk to the bathroom or kitchen.
Do not scream because this would wake a child at night.
GROCERY STORE TEST
Borrow one or two small animals (goats are best) and take
them with you as you shop. Always keep them in sight and pay
for anything they eat or damage.
DRESSING TEST
Obtain one large, unhappy, live octopus. Stuff into a small
net bag making sure that all the arms stay inside.
FEEDING TEST
Obtain a large plastic milk jug. Fill halfway with water.
Suspend from the ceiling with a cord. Start the jug swinging.
Try to insert spoonfuls of soggy cereal into the mouth of the
jug, while pretending to be an airplane. Now dump the
contents of the jug on the floor.
NIGHT TEST
Prepare by obtaining a small cloth bag and fill it with 8-12
pounds of sand. Soak it thoroughly in water. At 3:00p.m.
begin to waltz and hum with the bag until 9:00p.m. Lay down
your bag and set your alarm for 10:00p.m.Get up, pick up your
bag, and sing every song you have ever heard. Make up about a
dozen more and sing these too until 4:00a.m. Set alarm for
5:00a.m. Get up and make breakfast. Keep this up for 5 years.
Look cheerful.
INGENUITY TEST
Take an egg carton. Using a pair of scissors and pot of
paint, turn it into an alligator. Now take a toilet paper
tube and turn it into an attractive Christmas candle. Use
only scotch tape and a piece of foil. Last, take a milk
carton, a Ping-Pong ball, and an empty box of Cocoa Puffs.
Make an exact replica of the Eiffel Tower.
AUTOMOBILE TEST
Forget the regular cab and buy a crew cab and topper. Buy a chocolate ice
cream cone and put it in the glove compartment. Leave it
there. Get a dime. Stick it into the cassette player. Take a
family size package of chocolate chip cookies. Mash them into
the back seat. Run a garden rake along both sides of the truck.
There, perfect.
PHYSICAL TEST (Women)
Obtain a large bean bag chair and attach it to the front of
your clothes. Leave it there for 9 months. Now remove 10 of
the beans. And try not to notice your closet full of clothes.
You won’t be wearing them for a while.
PHYSICAL TEST (Men)
Go to the nearest drug store. Set your wallet on the counter.
Ask the clerk to help himself. Now proceed to the nearest
food store. Go to the head office and arrange for your
paycheck to be directly deposited to the store. Purchase a
newspaper. Go home and read it quietly for the last time.
FINAL ASSIGNMENT
Find a couple who already have a small child. Lecture them on
how they can improve their discipline, patience, tolerance,
toilet training and child’s table manners. Suggest many ways
they can improve. Emphasize to them that they should never
allow their children to run wild. Enjoy this experience. It
will be the last time you will have all the answers.

 

Congrats, it was almost eight years ago that I started down the exciting road of parenthood. A couple years later and we had another. It has never been an easy road but every second has been worth it. I would never change a thing.

CONGRATS

 

Thanks again for all the replies. Kids are the greatest. I'm just glad we were ready for them so we wouldn't spend the rest of our lives blaming them for all the things we missed out on. I've known way too many people that did this to their kids and it's awful. All you have to do is watch the news to see this.

For me, there is nothing better than when I walk through the door and my 3 year old runs to me calling my name and gives me a big hug. If I work late and don't get to see her at all, that is the worst... Alright, I'm starting to cry so I better stop now..sniffle, sniffle............................

 

Congrats to ALL of you soon-to-be pappa's. There is no better blessing than your child looking at you.

Sure is quite a baby-boom going on here .... you guys are obviously not out in the garage bombing the truck as much as you say you are !!!

Congrats,
PISTOL

 

Dodgezilla, congrats! My little girl is almost 16 months old! If little boys are any sweeter I couldn't stand it! Good Lord willing my wife and I are going to have another one next year.

 

Way to go man!

You do know what causes that right?


I LOVE babies!, but do you know what is better than babies? GRANDBABIES! Yea Baby!

 

I got my 18 month old to say DIESEL the other day. I was so proud.

 

That is too funny! Just don't get him to say HEMI!

I laughed so loud my wife asked what was up!

 

Yeah, he really said diesel. Except he can't pronouce the letter "L" yet, so it sounded like 'dee-sa'. My wife didn't believe me so i had him do it again. I am gonna try and get him to say turbocharger but I think he's quite ready to say that yet.

 

Congratulations Dodgezilla, My daughter and her Hubby are expecting my first grandson in April. His name will be Chase Marshall ******. I don't know who is more excited, them or us. My wife came home yesterday with a Christmas present for him! I think it will be great having a little person around again.

 

My parents are ecstatic!! Neither my brother or sister look like they are going to have any kids so my daughter is really getting spoiled by them. I'm sure that won't change when little Mikey comes along.... Ahhh, I'm so looking forward to the sleepless nights....................................
