    I have four kids. Here's advice:


    1)Convince the wife to breastfeed. This way you'll never have to prepare a bottle during football.

    2)You think the baby wants you to make funny faces at it. It doesn't. You're scary.

    3)There's tons of stuff to buy for babies. A couple things: Car seat, high chair, diapers. You's baby will puke on everything else.

    4) bean bag chairs are good for older babys.

    5) experts don't know anything. all kids are different. find out what works. (hint- find your kids weakness and exploit it)

    I hope you're glad to be where you're at.
    I don't mind living where we are.

    It's a suitable climate.

    A fine habitat for the yellow-haired

    Monkeys in the yard.

    A friend of mine, ya know he's flat broke, just delivered me a fat cigar.

    It's a beautiful excuse for a celebrative smoke.

    It's a yellow-haired monkey for the yard.

    Another yellow-haired monkey for the yard.

    Hi, My name is Connie Van Steenwyk, I just did a search on my last name and I found this article, I am from Minnesota but my father Ronald Van Steenwyk moved my family out to Arizona. I can only imagine that we are related, the name is not that common. Congrates I would love to see a picture of the little guy
