I was just at a baby shower this past Sunday.....my cousin who is expecting got so much cute stuff it filled not only their van but the trunk of her moms car too hehe. I can't wait to be a mom.... Babies of any species are a precious gift. Enjoy it while you can.......they don't stay that way for long hehehe

No Fru-Fru morphs in the herp room

I think all babies ragardless of sex are beautiful....male egotism doesn't start for at least the first 6 months LOL. Babies are meant to be *ooggled* over.

I'm not trying to start a fight, just being funny. I'm a woman but as a child i played with G.I.Joe dolls......and every time i got a barbie, well lets just say they didn't survive the G.I.Joe combat simulations LMAO. Sterio types based on sex confuse me only because its acceptable for a woman to wear pants and be found up on a roof or at the top of a tree (as i was most days when young) but its not *manly* for a man to cry or be the stay at home parent. Nature has defined the male/female rolls very nicely in regards to parenting with the exception of those that lay and leave (geckos for example) allowing the babies to fend for themselves or say sea horses where the responsibility rests on the male (WOOHOO LOL) Humans are i guess, above the laws of nature, at least we have redefined our rolls, yet still hold fast to the old ways of thinking. Nothing wrong with that by any means.

Then again dress a baby, reagardless of sex, in pink and i'll have to protest as i dispise pink......Red is such a powerful colour until you add white LMAO.

hehehe, you always want another one UNTIL you have to spend your nights awake or deal with projectile diaper *stuff* LOL. He is a big baby......at least he looks like it from the pic.

I remember the He-Man cartoon.......thankgod babies aren't born that huge.......I think our species would have died out a long time ago if we had to give birth to something that big LOL.

I've taken care of alot of babies, and yes i do want some of my own, however it is nice when the kid is screaming non stop to be able to hand it back to its parents hehehe.

The sad thing is i know that i'll have baby geckos in my house before i have a child of my own...

Monte, I'm with the women on this one. He is beautiful. Women, I'm with Monte on this one. He is handsome. Monte, I'm sure you already know. Never argue with a woman they are always right. They are also the bravest people on the planet. I give all the credit to my wife and all other mothers out there(Red, I'm sure you'll get your chance). If my boy wants to play with Barbie the gosh darn it he can(as long as I don't catch him J/K). Suzy he actually isn't baldie, He has a little mop on top. Definately hypo though. Thanks again.

Hopefully i'll find a man not so intent on having that many kids. The days of huge families have come to an end i hope. My father only ended up with three of us....my mom couldn't handle anymore LOL. Now that we are older i'm sure my father is very happy they stopped at 3. As for woman being the bravest....in some aspects we are, but i've got to admit...men are remarkable as well. To be able to tolerate us woman is amazing LOL. At least me....my name isn't Red Quake because i like the name, it describes me to a tee hehehe. A read head (firey temper comes with the hair) and i love to shake things up, thus the *quake*.

Lets hope your son doesn't develope any spotting......freckles are the worst LOL
