Congratulations

but
who said you have to be grown up
don't you believe it

I had my little one ( 15 mth ) on my lap the other day
helping me play Chicken Invaders
Its all in the name of
hand-eye coordination development
and brain spatial awareness something
you know

You just have to keep the pizza and coke
out of their reach
and their own keyboard ( like daddys )
to bash oops I mean play with

floppy

Congratulations man. Just do me a favor. Please don't send in embarrasing photos of the kid in a penguin suit to LinuxJournal. Those photos are killing me . A mini-kewpie on the way, right on man..
