My mom bought me a doll to care for while she was pregnant. Preemptive anti fratricide strike, or so I'm told.
Funny you say that...my mom on the phone just now was talking about buying Chris Jr a baby doll to "practice" on. I don't know how keen my husband will be on his son playing with a doll, but he'll have to suck it up!

It was her way of telling me to return her little sister to the hospital because she was over it already. It was cute, considering she was the third person that got to hold the baby and when we thought she was tired, she put her hand up and said "move back!"
I love memories of that. They are 20 and 13 now, but I remember it as if it happened yesterday.
LOL, that's adorable. Are they best buds now that they are older?

Aw, you already have a little one 
I have a 9 year old. The only thing I know for sure is that parenthood is the toughest job you'll ever love. Also, Viva paper towels under a warm faucet make great baby wipes! 
Good to know! Those damn things are expensive as hell, and we go through two packages a week as it is!

It's OK. We can read between the lines ...(your husband is looking over your shoulder, right!?)

Why would... why...
Ahem! My paternal instincts are somewhat completely absent. I have been feeling strangely protective of babies of friends and family though lately, rather than wanting to cave their heads in with a polo mallet. That's progress, right? I feel a kind of caveman "you not hurt little one" mentality. Not that anyone was trying to hurt them, of course. But you've seen my videos, if anyone tried...
You are most certainly an unstoppable force of destruction!

you forgot puking...
I...cannot deal with puke. I would rather change ten diarrhea diapers in a row than clean up puke. The word "puke" makes me want to puke, lol.

Congratz, Lady! (if you were actually trying for it... which I guess you were, given the 25 tests per day you were having).
Never forget to spoil that kid! But make him/her behave!
Also, words of wisdom from the older brother - don't make that older kid become an adult, just because he's older.
Treat each according to their age and personality.
It's great to have two kids with similar ages - they can play together, watch tv together, one can help the other with his studies... you'll see 
Thank you so much! That is very wise advice. It's funny; my son has been the center of our world since he was conceived, so it's hard to imagine having to room in my heart to love another child as much as I love him, or even expecting him to share the spot light! It will be an interesting journey, that's for sure!

Congrats, 2 1/2 years is a good gap for the kids according to my experience with the brother.

Congrats LfC, that is truly brilliant news.
5 weeks on and I am still loving every minute with my little one Matilda.
