The REAL Monsters We House Thread.

Well i figure since we all love to go crazy on our herp pics, why not start a child pics thread, show off why we go weeks with sleep deprivation and still love every minute of it.. I'll start...

This is my son Alexander, he is 6 months old, born august 23rd. He was a BIG boy, 11lbs 8oz and 21inches at birth.

 

None of those in my collection... they scare me too much.
(Very cute pic, though!)

 

This is a pic of me with my two boys, Taz is 14 and Zander is 2.

 

I have a dog named Taz! tehe. VERY cute son Skeletor, and 11 8??!!! Holy jeeeeze

 

There is deffinantly no denying that zander is yours, almost like a spitting image. lol. Thats so funny, cause we gave our son the name Alexander so that we could shorten it to xander but to be able to have a full name to use that he would know when he was in trouble. lol. Actually the day he was born i found out my friends son who was about 6 months old at the time was named Alexander and they had planned to use the same shortened version xander.

 

No kids here, I'm not up for that challenge!

 

No kids of my own, but i get plenty of baby time with my best friend's 7 month old. Annelise just got deployed to Iraq, so we have her husband and baby Julia down here as much as possible, in addition to helping Peter out with babysitting so he can get a break every once and a while... here is a pic of Julia at our New Years party. (no she was not holding any OPEN alcoholic beverages...)

 

Looks like it's a good thing Shell doesn't have one of her own.

 

lol the funny thing is that I really don't drink... (just play bartender). The green bottle was an empty bottle of soda of some sort, and the bottle of liquor was closed...

 

Well ya know, you are supposed to give them clear liquor, less chance of a hangover!

 

no kids....yet. I think we might start trying this fall.

 

Here's our little herper Noah. He's 18 months now.

 

Heres my boo (Garrett) turned 15 in January..this pic was from last year so hes gotten taller and bigger. Ill have to find a current one.

 

whoa. That's a big boy.

 

Now you see why I work 3 jobs, lol. One of them is just to feed him.

 

Mine are all pretty much grown and beginning to add monsters of their own, some pics of which are in the gallery. My son (25) just got engaged to a wonderful woman who has a 14 year old and a 16 year old. She is not afraid of the lizards (had an iguana once), but is afraid of the snakes. My 27 year old daughter has no prospect currently, still in grad school. My 18 and 20 yr olds are in college, they say "no time for men". My foster son 35 is married to a wonderful woman I consider my daughter and they have my "grandkids" a boy 9 and a girl 7. My foster daughter that's 21 currently is not interested in that. My foster daughter that's 18 has an internet friendship, but nothing else currently. My foster daughter 28 has my 2 yr old "granddaughter". I love them all to pieces. Who knows 2 years from now my son may have one of his own? They are unsure about adding any more kids. If I get bored my other niece who almost became a foster has 4 kids and my friend who is 19 had a baby last July. My other almost daughter has 2 kids who spend a lot of time with me and the snakes and sheep. Skeletor, congrats on Alexander, he even beat out my son 10 lbs 1 oz and 24 inches tall when born.

 

Here are my two:

First is Betsy (6, will be 7 in May) holding our crestie, Elvie:



And here is Henry (nearly 9) with a VERY big bug (plastic) at the science museum in Richmond:

 

I love monsters! even though i have none of my own. I've just never have been the settling down type.

 

Those are some scary SCARY monsters. I think I like my scaly ones for now. Although I'm thinking later the free labor might come in handy later.
