10/23 eh? You better watch her. 10/23 is ALWAYS a day of weird (not necessarily bad) stuff happening with my family. Congrats!

That's why I'm a bodybuilder - I'm getting as big as I can for when my daughter is a teenager so I can intimidate and scare the boys into treating her right! :laugh2:

Congrats on your 3rd and final girl :cheers:

My 2nd daughter is due in January.

Might be my last child as well.  I hope they like video games.

I might have to make a DDR machine for them

TY!  In my findings, they seem to enjoy what you expose them too, so start early and often!   :cheers:

Good thinking.  I will try it out with my 18 month old.   She does like the buttons so far.

Congrats on the new addition to the family!  :)

My cousin had a girl on the same day too, 10/23/08.

I just had my 1st (a boy) in August.  Enjoy your sleep before the baby comes home!

congrats, and what are you going to name her?
anything video game themed?

(one of my co-workers has a brother named Tron, which I think is cool)

You're wasting you time.  All you need to do is buy a shotgun.  Don't waste your money on ammo...just sit there and polish it every time a boy comes over.  :D

Oh...congrats to the OP!

Great Name.     Sounds like a gymnast's name.  Did you pick it out or your wife?  Family Names?

My 2nd daughter (to be born in january) name is going to be Chloe Madeline.  My 1st Daughter  is Emily Geogette.  Middle names are of My Wife's mother and my mother.

I been catching up on sleep now hahahaha

My twin daughters will be 13 in February. They are anxiously awaiting my second cab. They made me a list of their favorite games from the first cab, and it spanned 2 columns across 3 8-1/2x11 pages  :D
To game, or not to game...what kind of question is that!?

My wife picked the names.  Nadia is not a family name, but Kathleen is my mother-in-law's name.
