Number 5...I shall call him Caboose...

Jun 03, 2005 12 Replies

So our 5th son was born. I get so tired of the "Gee, do you know what causes that?" comments.



Anyhow, he was a whopping nine pounds. 19.5 inches long. Born on the 2nd of June at 7:32pm

This is why I have been away for a bit and why I will continue to be away for a bit until I can get a routine going again. I am home to do some cleaning before I bring the wife and son home tonight from the hospital.



Everyone have a blessed weekend.

Way ta go! But next time, don't do your laundry together.... Sorry, just couldn't resist pointing out what causes that.....

Anyway.... The kid is lucky! For if his parents had not had kids, there's a better than 50/50 chance he never would. : )

Don't forget the flowers....

Congratulations to You and Tina on your bundle of joy.

You're a good guy cleaning up before she gets home... pats on the back for you!

Congrats to you and yours!

Whew, I can't even imagine having 5 kids, let alone 5 boys. I think somebody's going to be spending some time coaching sports in the not-too-distant future.

One of each, four years apart...wore...me...out. God bless ya!

Yep.... raise 'em up to support him in a manner to which he'd love to become accustomed..... so he and Bill Gates can do lunch and swap tales..... : )

You too, you'll need it more than the rest of us. For about the nest 16 years....

Hey I don't guess you guys saw this. I was watching cable and on some off channel Oxygen or Travel or something, there was this couple that had FOURTEEN kids. Yes, 14. And she was pregnant. They live in Arkansas and the family "car" is a small school bus.

Did they say what they do for a living??

She was a stay at home mom but before they both were together in a business. They did well in real estate as well. I can't remember what it was that they did currently, but they had managed to get well off through out life to be able to afford all the kids.

Mom is a housewiff and home schools all the kids. They have no TV Radio etc. But had 12 or so computers lined up with kids on them. I didn't see what he did, but he ran for a state or local office and won and later ran for Senetor or congress and lost. Maybe he's a lawyer. He just built a big fancy new house with rooms for all those rug rats from

14 down to 18mos
