I have not been real active on the forums this month as work has been ...HECTIC. It seems that life has been pitching me curve balls for a while now. Family members in hospital.....Corporate Downsizing...my boss resigning.....A PITA dentist and a unbearable toothache.....but it is all seeming to come together now at least it is under control.
Oh yeah............did I mention we are pregnant agian Or , rather my wife is. The irony of previous complaints about to little room in our current house has not gone unnoticed with the new news. Good thing we just gave away all our baby stuff 2 months ago
So now that I am no longer in shock and am now fully medicated....I should be back pretty regular.

Welcome Back, Shawn! And also a big congratulations on your wife being pregnant. My wife is due any week now. Any advice you want to share on becoming first time parents?
Congratulations Shawn and Shawn's wife (sorry I can't remember her name)! When is she due? Just wondering because My wife is pregnant too! Not trying to steal your limelight ( ) but I am not good at announcing things without a drumroll.

Thanks and Congratulations to you in case I have not mentioned it.
Well, giving advice on parenting is like giving advice on working on cars. You gotta know what your working on first, any usually you are the only one with that particular make and model anyways, so most advice from friends just seems useless, BUT one thing that seems to hold true for all parenting essentials.......
PATIENCE! Don't sweat the small stuff.
Others might include:
Anything irreplaceable should be boxed up for 10 years minimum and a picture of it put in it's place.
Children mimic thier parents so if your kids do not smile alot...it's because you don't either
You think you have a lifetime supply of diapers when you start out, but they barely last a week.
And last but not least....when going out for a while always pack 2 extra outfits for the baby and 2 for you.
I hope I drool when I get old....I owe my kids paybacks

I hope it was the pigs in blankets... I would like to be responsible for your good fortune-didn't know pork was a fertility booster. I am so excited for both of you (all four of you) Shawn and spouse(insert name) and Scott and Nicki...
It is a blessed thing to bring new life to the world, even with every headache and heartache that is attached to them.
I see my kids and as much anguish that they may cause, each day is made better because they are here....
AWWWW...I am so excited for you guys...alllll of you. Congrats upon congrats. Babies are so wonderful...and they are even wonderful as they grow. I hope the women have pleasant pregnancies(is this possible? ). Anywho...congrats again!! I hope it wasnt the piggies!!! hah
