I'm so stupid, I signed up and got the Zot.

[Monkey Face]

I'm too lazy to make a beer run...no car, ya know. So I will put off the desire. I'll probably wish I hadn't by this evening...

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

; )

[Monkey Face]

And my sister is doing her spring cleaning. She says she's got a whole bunch of stuff ready for a yard sale. Maybe I'll get the books...

;o]

[Monkey Face]

I like Subway's sandwiches, but the distance is the same, whether it's beer or food. Not in the mood at the moment.

[Monkey Face]

Ear infections are so trying for kids. Parents don't get much rest during them either. I was lucky, in that my babies never had an ear infection, so I really don't know how to empathize.

Keep the liquor handy!

[NicknamedBob]

What's this stuff?

Some books. S'posed to be good for you.

Did you read them?

I'm not gonna read them! ... Let's get Mikey!

He won't read them; he hates everything!

... Hey Mikey!

[tiamat]

My beer place is right around the corner.

Next to the Subway and a pretty good Chinese take-ou as a matter of fact...

Hmmm. Maybe I should take a break!

[Dead Corpse]

I know... According to the Doc at her last Well Child visit said she'd be a six footer by the time she hits full growth. Barring illness that is...

[Monkey Face]

Heh-heh!

I'm still trying to find all my books. There are two that I'm very interested in reading, and I don't know where the box is that has them in it. ;]

[Monkey Face]

There is a formula for determining a child's adult height, but I have lost it. I figured my son would be 6'4" and he is. It is supposed to be done when they are two. I wish I could remember the formula.

[Dead Corpse]

Ana is still a few months from 2, but is already taller than most 5 year olds.

[Monkey Face]

MY friend in TX has a grandaughter who was like that. She is in Kindergarten, but looks like a second or third grader.

[Dead Corpse]

This was taken last week.

Standard height desk. Note: she's not wearing shoes.

[NicknamedBob]

So much for putting the light switches out of a child's reach.

[Monkey Face]

Wow. Teach her to stand straight...balance a book on her head when she walks...and always tell her that her height makes her more beautiful. It's hard to be taller than all your friends, unless you are a guy. (I speak from experience!)

[Dead Corpse]

Yep. She's mastering doorhandles at the moment. Gonna be an awkward day come the time she puts waking up early from a nap with opening the door to mommy and daddy's room together.

*Insert shudder of horror*

[Dead Corpse]

Yeah. Teaching her anything is kinda hit or miss at this point.

Then again, I fell for her Mom as hard as I did BECAUSE she's on the tallish side. I like long legs. ;-)

[Monkey Face]

I don't think it's the light switches he will have to worry about. I suspect he will have a tough time with guys wanting to date her when she is 10. Argh! I don't envy you, DC. Get that shotgun out and keep it by the door. Ana is a precious jewel.

[Monkey Face]

We always had an "open door" policy. If the door was closed, the kids knocked. We gave them the same respect. It just takes a while to enforce. Barring that, get a lock for the bedroom door. ;o]

[Monkey Face]

Yepper...I know how the leg thing works. ;o]

Good-lookin' legs come from my mother's side of the family. Mine are the longest, though. Even my parents were shorter than I am.
