Hmmm, this is true for me, too. Just had an ER visit for stitches the other night when he bumped his bigger brother into the corner playing on an indoor basketball hoop.


True for my younger brother aswell. He was always finding ways to couse problems for our parents :P

Congratz Knightro, always good to have more young fans !
My money is on Banchero going number 1 !

And brace yourself. Raising two kids is like 5 times more challenging than raising one :D




Yes! I have a 5 and 1 year old. As soon as the 2nd was born it was significantly more challenging. 1 is manageable, 2 is exhausting. My boss claimed it gets easier once the 2nd one comes, told him he is crazy and my colleague with 3 kids agreed with me. Boss kids are in their mid 20s now, he either forgot or didn’t do alot of the rearing…

It's just nature's way of getting parents to have a second one... think about it, if your first is the wild child, there wouldn't be a second

Congrats Knightro!

Proud to announce my wife gave birth to our second son this morning.

8 lbs, 3 oz. A chubby little bundle of fun.

I’m going to be listed as OUT (Personal Reasons) for the immediate future.

Please let me know if you would like to take over the game thread creation and ideally some vest thread creations too.

I should be back in the saddle in a couple of weeks.

Go Magic!


Congratulations!

Being a father is great, almost as great as being a grandad.

Good luck to you and yours.

2.) And why did you name him Franz?

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

Mine are 9 and 7,5. The challenges change over time but are present all the time. When you are involved with raising kids you'd never say things like your boss, I reckon.

That’s my line :lol: my second oldest spent more time in the ER than the other 2 combined & doubled…but he gave the grandson, so he’s current favorite- especially with a little girl on the way.

Anyway- awesome news, Knightro…best wishes for some height & a solid jumper
