This is my 1st time posting. We live on a boat on the Mississippi River over 6 mo. of the year so I don't get to get on my computer more than a couple of times a week & it takes forever to catch up on all of the informative (& entertaining) posts you all have here. But I didn't want anyone to think I was too stuck up to post anything. We picked out our baby on Easter Sunday & we are head over heels in love with her. She is the result of some sort of pre-menopausal midlife crisis on my part. (I really identified with the poster the other day who was menopausal & had to chase after her dog w/a fly swatter--I laughed my you know what off) We had to have some kind of nautical name so we came up with the name "Yachtsea". It was either that or "Bobber" or "Undertow" (my daughter's fav.) She's rapidly risen up the ranks and is now the undisputed captain of our vessel. Even my old salt of a husband is reduced to baby talk around. her. There was going to be no sleeping in our bed, no people food, no bows, no cutesy outfits, etc. That lasted a couple of weeks!! I have learned so much on this site. Every time I have a question I just search the archives & there is a wealth of info.. If I could learn to post a pix I'd put up one of her & my granddaughter w/ matching tiaras. Anyway, just wanted to say hi. Not even sure if I'm doing it right. Probably won't be able to post often because of time but who knows?
