OT - Official MGoBaby Thread (you got 'em, we want to see 'em)

Since MGoUsers weasel3216 inspired it and Feat of Clay asked for it, here is your official MGoBaby thread. Post your favorite pictures of your little ones - recent or old - if you feel so inclined. In other words, post 'em if you got 'em!

(For all you I Hate OT Threaders: Beware! If you neg posts with pictures of babies you are not human and will be doomed to having cute little babies of your own that wake 10 times in the night for 2 years and learn to say your spouse's name first. I mean, who doesn't like pictures of cute babies that are going to grow up Michigan fans?? Also, its the off-season and of the 15 most recent posts on the Board, only 3 of them directly pertain to Michigan sports. So consider this note a preemptive "get over it.")

My avatar is my daughter

My avatar is my daughter who's now 5 and a half. She'll be attending her first Michigan football game this September. Sadly I don't have this picture anymore because the hd is was on died. So it will forever be my mgoavatar.

I have a 5 and almost 3 year old (28th) they really got into the last basketball season.

Oh my goodness that is hilarious.

I was just nonchalantly scrolling through and once my brain registered what my eyes saw I could not stop laughing. That is the funniest thing I have seen for months. Funnier than "Will you look at that" video on YouTube. People were looking at me like I was possessed. I even showed my buddy from the beginning of the thread and could not stop laughing waiting for him to get to your post. Epic, well done!

Let me be the first to remind people that when

it comes to digital records, if they only exist in one place, you don't have them. With most pictures just an oops away from being lost, please make sure you have them safely stored in (at least) a second location.

Mine is grown, graduated and married, but I'll be happy to look at the cute pictures while you do the sleepless nights and worrying. My worrying is pretty much down to occasions when she is traveling or a storm is bearing down on DC.

We've had an arguement or two about that topic... She seems to think that her work deserves a monetary reward, I think she should just hook up people we like. I guess its better for all of us that she runs a business and I teach...

Or, (using your picture and my powers of deduction; I see 5 kids there, yet I can't see her hips behind your boys. Obviously she's delivered by cesarean before and should again.) Make sure they tie up those tubes while they're in there.

Congratulations!

This just reminded me that I never told the end of my story...way back when, I published a diary about my prospective son's name hinging on the outcome of the Michigan-Alabama game. It was going to be Bear if Bama won, and Bo if Michigan won.

Obviously we know how that came out.

But speaking of "came out", it was a SHE that came out! So the good news is we named her Susannah (and call her "Zuzu" for short).

The bad news is my wife wants DOUBLE or NOTHING on the boy, whenever he comes...either NICHOLAS BEAR or ... well, nothing, which as any guy on here can tell you is something else she wanted anyway :)

Cross Cultural Awareness...

I was told that the reason it is offensive is because it is an Eurocentric term. Oriental meaning east of Europe. Also, lumping an entire cardinal direction of people into one category is kind of offensive in general considering the incredible diversity of culture in Asia.

From wikipedia - "The Orient means "the East". It is a traditional designation for anything that belongs to the Eastern world or the Near East or Far East, in relation to Europe"

Getting way OT

But it hasn't meant that for a hundred years. No one refers to India as the Orient. And about the only thing from the middle east considered Oriental anymore is the aforementioned rugs.

As for lumping an entrire cardinal direction of people into one category, I hope we're going to stop calling people "Mediterranean" or "Middle Eastern" ...I mean, we should do away with "Asian" (and European and African) altogether.

I find the people who are actually from Asia care the least about it, and it's people who have never stepped foot in the "Orient" that are looking for reasons to be offended so they can be as downtrodden as other groups.

Yup

That's why I was holding HIM tightly, not that it would've mattered as he was not walking yet at that age. We'll be back in Ann Arbor this August though so we'll have to make sure to watch out that he doesn't step on it then.

Here's my 18 month old eating raspberries in the middle of Costco. Apparently he thought the 2 quart container of tapioca pudding would make a good seat. Sadly he has his Dad's hair.

That is totally cute. Just wait until he's older and he asks to go to Costco for the free samples. There is an upscale grocery down the street from our house and my youngest always asks to go there for samples on Saturday.

That's the only reason I go to Costco. Also, the flagship Whole Foods is in Austin. I can go there any day of the week and basically get a full meal for free just walking around.

Way to depress me,

CooperLily. I was just lamenting the fact that my 12 year old is already 5'9" and the other two are getting big as well. Now I see all these cute babies! They grow up too fast, people. Mark my words. Savor every minute!!

Moran? Ok MORON

So Adult Children and Llamas are upvoted but you're going to criticize a picture of a 7 year-old? Are you sure you're not Mr. Rager in disguise?

And so glad you misspelled Moron. Brought a smile to my face to be negged by a MORON who can't spell MORON. :)

Thanks! I'll show my wife your comment when I get home, she'll appreciate it. Yeah I definitely got lucky getting her, she's definitely a step above what a guy like me should be able to land. She was a cheerleader at GVSU her freshman year before transferring to Michigan, where she was offered a spot on the team but turned it down due to needing to work to pay for school, so I am a lucky son of a gun, thats for sure.

Don't get me wrong....you're not a bad looking dude.

But after the HTTV release party last year many people called the photos from it a dork fest (I can say that...my picture was in there too looking dorky), but the women they were with certainly were not. So it's more average to above average guys with really fine women. (I did the same.)

Is it bad that my first post

Is it bad that my first post on this hallowed blog is not about Michigan sports at all, but is instead about my kid? If so it's my husbands fault. I was content to be a lurker until he sent me the link to this post. Before I knew what had happened the internet had sucked 30 minutes of my life away while I was learning about image hosting and picture uploading.

Here's my little man less than 24 hours fresh belatedly celebrating the 2012 Sugar Bowl win.

And here he is less than a year later cheering on his team during the 2013 Outback Bowl. He was so sure the carrot would help spur Team 133 to victory...
