Luckily for him, his cute kiddo (got that from the mama, clearly) will draw attention away from his bizarre appearance.

That will be good times.

It will definitely ruin you, and it will be the best ruination you've ever experienced. Some people act like having kids is the end of your life. After you actually have one, you realize your life is just starting.

We already established in another thread that my shoe lineup is on point and that Wooly dresses like Luke Skywalker on Hoth so I have nothing to apologize for.

I have no clue why, but I've always secretly desired a Hawaiian style button up shirt. I try to buy one often if we're at the mall. The GF puts the squash on that real quick. She's not a fan.

Absolutely.

I don't post much, but I've got three: 5, 3, and 6 months. My 5 year old is one who likes to follow the rules but also loves all things sports.

My wife and I put our son in pre-k4 last year. We were able to go to the class christmas party. The students sat on the carpet and the teacher proceeded to hand out gifts to all the kids. She asked all the kids to wait till everyone got a present before they opened them. There was about 2 kids left to receive their presents and the rest of the students started to open their present.

Not my son, he didn't want to break the rules. Once the final students get their presents, the teacher has them go back to the seat. On the table is another present for the students. My son brings the unopened present to the table. We encourage him to open it. The teacher right at the time he starts to open the present, says "Don't open the present till everyone sits down and I tell you it's okay." So he doesn't open the present. Lol I felt so bad for him.

Spoiler: He eventually opened the presents

Glad they were able to diagnose that food allergy. With my son being Autistic he often has stomach and bowel problems. He's got the runs daily, and at least once a week he experiences stomach discomfort or pain. It's been a real challenge trying to figure out what he can and can't eat, because he can't tell us how he feels. Even worse is finding foods he WILL eat, he can be super picky and you can't force him to eat anything.

She will. Our little girl is just over a year and something is broken inside me.

She's army crawling all over the house, loves the dogs, and wiggles whenever anything musical is on. She's one of the most interesting people I have ever known.

Nothing worse than a teacher who has the power trip in her. I would have asked her If her presents were opened that way and if she has the patience to listen to me tell her my opinion of her.

I'm the proud dad of 3 boys ages 4, 2, and almost 11 months. My oldest can sing the ND fight song and my middle one can hum it and sing a few lines. They hate Penn St. too! They boo them when the name is said and I love it!
