As soon as I can afford it I am getting my junk snipped. I would do it myself if I knew how. I will not have any screaming rugrats running around my house on my watch.

you should probally get a extra job to speed up the process
or you could goggle the do it yourself method!!!
but i admire you for not wanting to reproduce there are already too many unwanted abused kids.

OK, I guess that I have to get in on this too. Here is a picture of my three and four year old grandaughters with their Husqvarna saws. The Black & Decker label is a misprint. They're orange aren't they. LOL

It was about a week ago that I mentioned that I was going to cut some wood and the youngest protested because her chainsaw was at home.

We are all blessed to have children and grandchildren.

My 6 and 7 year old girls love to help me load the truck and go with me on deliveries, well, when they want to. Still a little hesitant to let them hang around while I'm cutting or splitting. Got 18 month old twin boys that I hope turn into good helpers someday... I'll have to get picks next we're out.

AOD you're funny man. I felt the same way as you for awhile, but I now have the first one on its way....due literally any minute. Not looking forward to changing dirty diapers, losing sleep, etc. etc. I joke with my wife maybe we can get an exchange program where we send the kid off until its 18 and then we get it back. But I'm sure once I hold the little sucker I'll melt into a puddle.

Plus, someone's gotta take care of me when I'm old!

Sorry I can't contribute to this great thread yet. I have enjoyed seeing everyone's helpers though.

Be sure to let us know when the little one arrives.

My boys in 2007 on a woodcutting trip. I have a daughter in between as well. They like to explore the woods while I am cutting, and help too. A lot of my wood for the owb is just a bit heavy for them so they end up doing more exploring.

if you "hate" children, why are you reading a thread devoted to them??? bad children come from poor parents.. the same is true for good ones as well...

Here is my little girl "helping" Daddy with wood. Ahhh, good times.

A picture of my future helper....

A picture of my future helper....someone has to drive the truck when I'm too old!

This is our miracle baby. She was born 3 lbs 12 oz and came home in 5 days. We we were not expecting her. We were 4 months along before we knew of her. It's a good think that my wife and I do not drink! She was born 7 weeks early. I don't think I'll ever get tired of telling people about her! She's around 8 months here.

Thanks for looking!

Dan

This is around 6 months with big sisters Army hat:

Here she is at about .5 hour old! She was small but healthy!

If you're expecting a little one....take pictures! Lots of pictures. My wife was in recovery so she would have missed all of her first 1.5 hours of life on the outside.

:jawdrop: My daughter was 10.7...son was 8.9...

 

[beerman6]

and before I get any smart ass comments my wife was 120lbs before the 1st brat came...Both were c-sections.

 

[blakey]

I don't think anyone here would make a rude comment like that about your family, this is a pretty respectful group.

Manyhobies, that is amazing how your daughter was so small yet so healthy.

My daughter who is 5 years love to be out in the forest she wonder when she get her own Stihl saw (not toy saw) .

 

[allthegross]

yup you got to start them early

 

[Dan_IN_MN]

Thanks for the kind words!

Thanks for the kind words. The doctors were a bit worried.,...this was our first baby (we adopted 2 older kids ~ 6 years ago they're now 15 & 17) and we were so tired from other things to be worried. On her 1 week check up her weigh in showed that she lost weight! Boy...did that ever get the Dr. worried until he got the idea to weigh her in the scale in the picture. The second scale wasn't calibrated and was off quite a few oz's. She had gained! I don't remember the numbers any more but when you start small there is only one way to go! The Dr. said that 'if she burped wrong she would go in the hospital.

She is defiantly a miracle from God! I do need to be reminded of this time to time! How quickly do we forget!

Aaah...don't worry about AOD...he's allright. Just expressing his opinion. I know how this place can get ahold of you and you feel like you are talking to your own group of friends. In front of my friends I will always say something even if they don't agree.

Enough of my sidetracking...keep the thread goin! Great pics everyone.

Not really, I just hate kids and the fact that the world has to be made "TV-14" for the sake of lame "Family Values". Families suck, leave me alone.

If you actually really felt that way, you wouldn't even be reading this thread, let alone posting about it. You have issues and the scars are showing. I hope you figure it out someday.

Just don't call AOD when you need a baby sitter.
