    Yeah, I know how that goes. My son was humming the Imperial march as he played with his toy Star Destroyer at age 3... I can only hope for such success this time.

    Congradulations. Any plans to teach them how to roleplay? Little D20, D10, and D6s hanging above their cribs?

    One problem I've run into... My wife just all-out refuses to let me get a plush Cthulhu for either of our girls... I think it'd be a nice think to cuddle with when the nightmares come... K

    Since my wife's a gamer, too, they'll be immersed in it from day one...

    I've got a plushy Cthulhu, it's the "Panama-thulhu" version as I call it. Sandals, Bermuda shorts, and Panama hat. Disturbingly cute. I'd send it along as a birthing gift, but then Nyarlathotep would send shadows to squat on my head or suck my will out through my eyeballs or something.

    Congrats on the new joy in your life, Doug! Someday you and family will have elder talismans, er ... I mean plushy-thulhus ... and be one with us too.

    Congrats on the (growing) little bundle of Joy!

    5 kids? Wow, that's alota "DADDDD!!! He's looking at me!!!!! Tell him to STOPPPPP! Can we get some Ice Cream? DAAAAAAD?!?!?!"

    I also have the Summer Fun Cuthulhu; I saw a Superhero one online. And they have alot of other mythos-critters, and even Egyptian Deities (you know you want to cuddle under the Covers with Annubis, don't you?)! (Fighting urge to shop online...)

    But seriously, congratulations, poppa!

    But wait, it gets better. here's the breakdown:

    Greg (age 7)
    Morgan & Madison (age 7), twin girls a month younger than Greg
    Korben (age 4)
    New one (in utero)

    That's right. Three seven year olds. Two of them girls.

    Can you imagine what life' going to be like in nine years?

    That's right. Three sixteen year olds. Two fo them girls.
