Sorry for not being around much
on: September 22, 2014, 06:41:57 PM
Hey MTO folk,

I just wanted to say a big thank you to all those that make this the best site on the Internet and also that I am sorry for not dropping in more often, I will try to make amends.

There's a lot going on in my life right now that doesn't leave me much time -plus it takes me forever to type and read my posts and that's not funny...

Right, that's it then, back to lurking I go now.

Hey!  I'd wondered what happened to you a while back, and also recently when it's come up that there had been a rash of MIA members lately.  I hope all is well with you :tu: :D

Thanks for the kind words guys, it's nice to see you. I've been lurking most of the time and I realised I hadn't showed up in quite some time so I wanted to let you all know that you keep this guy great company when needed and that's much appreciated.

All is well, Monrogue, thank you. I hope the same for over there. Things could be better but I'm not complaining. As for sorting things, we are expecting our first child in about three months so time will tell. (Stress, bordering panic.)

There are some reviews in my future if no-one beats me to it but I won't make any promises as for when.

 Take care people. See you later :cheers:

Glad to see you popping in and a huge CONGRATS on the baby.  Lack of sleep and caring for your precious child will be less stress than you think.  I have 3 , now all teens,  and when I look back I sure wish they were little again.  Enjoy every moment because when "they" say its goes by fast "they" aint lying.

Congrats on the baby, and enjoy :). It does go fast.  My baby girl is going on 19 months already.  It's crazy how quickly she's growing.  She's no longer a little baby, but a little terror instead ;)

Thanks for the encouragement guys. I see how fast my niece and my friends' kids grow.

I enjoy becoming one again through playing with them but man, they knock me out in 2 hours of not doing much other than being around. Oh, and the decibels they reach sometimes?,  :o

Yes, once they are on their feet and getting the hang of walking, then walking faster, it gets pretty crazy.  Mine goes from one thing to another, grabbing or reaching for anything that catches her eye.  Oh, and to make it more interesting, once she grabs ahold of something and one of us is approaching her telling her to put it back, she proceeds to throw the object in any random direction...gotta love toddlers :ahhh 

Despite that type of thing, it is still fun, and it is adorable to see them learning so much and putting words/ideas together.  It's amazing how much they learn and how quickly it happens.  All I can say is good luck my friend ;)

An adorable little nightmare terror she must be I imagine :tu: I'm sure I'll need all the good luck I can get.

I'm as petrified as I am happy i.e. a lot. My encounter with the world of baby care has been remote so far but certainly startling as well  :ahhh  :o  :ahhh  ???
