What are you still doing up? I'm busy getting kicked in the balls at work...(sorry, it's a phrase in common usage in the Corps) ;)

Re: Re:
Leashes and tethers?? tsk tsk, my man, you are not with the times! You implant a small TRACKING DEVINCE into the child so that they think they're free, but in reality you know exactly where your kid is at all times. COME ON, GET WITH THE TIMES!

Re:
Yeah, I'm looking into leashes and tethers. I want to find a way to keep her in one place. Rach isn't completely sold on it yet, but she'll come around... ;)

We're VERY thankful. We're just hoping it's not the calm before the storm...(knocking on my faux wood desktop)

Yeah, I'm pretty taken with her. I was telling one of the other officers yesterday that I can't stop kissing her. She's very kissable.
She was born asleep. Did I mention that? She slept through the whole thing. For the entire 3.5 hour pushing process, her heartrate didn't spike once. When she was born, it took four nurses 15 minutes to finally piss her off enough to cry. Her heartrate, breathing and color were fine; she was just in a coma. She would wake up periodically while they were slapping her around, she'd start to cry, turn it into a yawn and go back to sleep. Classic Nelson; I was instantly smitten...
She's an absolute joy to have around, and she's pretty mellow for a newborn. She hardly ever cries, and when she does, it isn't for very long. She's been taking it easy on Mom and Dad...

Re:
Mindy, I'm sorry if I erased a comment. I added another couple of paragraphs and some formatting bug kept underlining and bold-facing them. I had to delete and completely repost the entry. I did it quick, but I was hoping I hadn't cut anyone off. Please forgive me?
Oh, and I'm working on a reply. I'm in a middle of planning for an exercise in a few weeks, but I've been taking breaks to compose my garotte...

Erasing my comment won't make me go away, you know! LOL! Where be your garrote, punk? You keep ridiculing mine, yet you have nothing. NOTHING. Put me in my place while Lion is gone? YEAH RIGHT. You've obviously given up. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
