I tried to but she only said she was going to the "chip store" and I don't know where that is. I asked her to draw me a map and she made a fart noise and ran away.

Show me the lie.

She got the generic screening blood test and it says girl. We're meeting the doctor next week to go over the results and I'm sure he'll tell us officially.

No middle name?

E: speaking of names, I have a last name (which the baby is getting, despite Mrs The Owl keeping her last name when we married) which Ellis island spelled weird so it's always mispronounced, But the name the wife and I are leaning towards has the same vowel combination so I can either make sure baby The Owl never learns to spell by giving her both spellings,or do I declare a power move against English and use the weird spelling twice?

White and grey furniture are in style these days for some reason, as a fan of brown woodgrain patterns it's hard to find stuff that isn't vintage sometimes

I'm color blind so I see brown as red so I saw this reddish-brown crib and loved the color but it was too brown for her :(

In the Something Awful Forums, fecal based offenses are centered around the anus.
In the Parenting Thread, the dedicated posters who investigate these vicious poopys are members of an elite squad known as the Special Changing Unit. There are their stories.

my 4yo daughter asked me how much longer until the summer is over, and I told her about sixty days

then then she looked shocked, and said “but that’s so short! and are all the people going to die? is (my best friend) going to die?” and started big crying, because what she’d *actually* asked was how much longer until the *sun* goes *nova*

Congrats on turning her into a long termist

9 month old baby decided pretty suddenly that he's too big for milk or something. We don't really agree with him, but it's hard to force. I think it's because he's just super into real food, but milk would probably be a good idea still...

The lactation people are telling us you shouldn't feed the baby anything but boob for a year

And also stressed that the best food is whatever your baby eats. What does your pediatrician think?

We are 21 days from due date, and:
Baby size is 91%ile
Baby head size is 99%ile.
They're pretty sure we're going to schedule a c-section either at today's appointment or next week, because while the human body is amazing this baby is not going to fit

It appears that Thursday morning I will be serving eviction papers to the baby who has made no downward motion inside my wife.
Furthermore: This baby could fulfill several prophecies since thanks to IVF it was conceived free of original sin, and thanks to a C-section will also not be born of woman. For those of you who consider yourselves immortal double check the terms and conditions of your powers.
