Congrats!!!!!  Its amazing how one can fall instantly in love with their new born.

See, I don't share that.  I mean, it was neat having a newborn and all but really it was 6 months old before I began really began bonding... Likely that is because at that age you start to get feedback from your interactions.

I also second Vmango on having two.  It's way more than twice the work. And if we had just one kid for the weekend it felt like a holiday.

Mmret, an interesting book about parenthood is "Home Game" by Micheal Lewis.  A light and entertaining read.  Rather insightful too.

I went out with a girl who worked at the local Tim's.  When we went back to my place, I turned up her jacket collar, but it said, 'Sorry, please play again'.

You mean the backyard? We've been here 6 years, no indication that there's any construction going to happen soon.

Yup. There are some giant houses on the other side (not in view) but I can only see 2 of them from where I am, and they are very very far away.

Since those are not very big lines , the right wil not be that large but it will still make it feel like you have large yard until everyone takes their dogs there to poop  :rofl:

No neighbors, just cancer  :P :P

Nope. My OCD home inspector checked it out. Also they are not high voltage lines. Also arranged in such a way that much of the EM field cancels. :)

What do you define as high-voltage?

Also, how do the EM fields cancel each other?
