October 26th, 2009 by skippy

The kids have arrived over the weekend. I have been kind of busy since then. They are healthy, allergy and loud.

Smart-assed comments to follow later.

    Give that man a pair of cigars!! If I were with you in person I would slap you on the back and congradulate you heartily. I’m not the only one either.

    There are very few things in this world like a young child. Their cuteness is overwhelming. They make me want to hug things. This probably sounds much more wrong than I intend.

    YAY!!!
    … although if I were a more religious person, I would probably be convinced that Armageddon is truly upon us. Quick, someone sacrifice a goat!

    Hence the sacrifice. To show our devotion to our new lords and masters, and to raise a pleasing scent to them.

    Congrats! You will never get a full nights sleep ever again. At least they’re healthy though.

    Double congrats to you and Mrs. Skippy! (So if you’re Skippy, and your lovely bride is Mrs. Skippy, are the twins the Skippletts?)

    I know a guy that started naming his kids with the phonetic alphabet. Worked until the forth kid was a daughter. Able, Baker, Charlie, Doris.

    wow, talk about lack of imagination. Delilah, Danica, Denise, Danielle…

    StoneWolf reply on October 27th, 2009 1:47 pm:

    Yeah, but at least he broke from the phonetic alphabet. Before the NATO standard the next letter that American’s used would have been Dog. You don’t want to name your kid Dog, especially not a girl.

    I don’t have a retired RAF father, but I do have loads of IRL friends who would really like it if I stopped reading them SL stories.

    Don’t be silly. We don’t have a problem. We can stop at anytime.

    Shadowydreamer reply on October 27th, 2009 6:51 pm:

    I will stop when Skippy tells me to and not one moment sooner!

    Welcome to new parenthood.

    It’s a lot like a hazing process, frankly. No sleep and the beginning of poop discussions.

    Ditto Lt. Ronald’s comment RE stories. I’m just having trouble thinking of something to write.

    Let it be known that a couple of Skippies (the alcoholic drink) will be hoisted at the next meeting of POETS corner at the local pub.
    Now, get some sleep.
