"And we're back on M.O.O.T. with the Moots playing this Platter classic slightly changed..."

Only Katt can make this world seem right
Only Katt can make the darkness bright
Only Katt and Katt alone
can thrill me like you do
and fill my heart with love for only you

Only Katt can make this change in me
for it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
understand the magic that you do

You're my dream come true
my one and only Katt

Only Katt can make this change in me
for it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand the magic that you do

You're my dream come true
my one and only Katt

One and only Katt

When they start talking, and realize what their names are, they'll probably be like, "wtf".

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERY MOOTER!!!

And congratulations to Ingwe! All the best to your family!
Church is a nice peaceful environment (usually). It'd be even cooler to have mass outside during summer time! If God's everywhere, he shouldn't just be at Church, he should be outside once in a while too!

Thanks for the best wishes! Our first Christmas together as a family is not going to be a White Christmas, but I don't mind that. I hope that winter disappears quickly. Winter's much too dark.

And the talking probably won't happen for at least a year, give or take... if you surround your kids with people talking (although probably not tv), they will learn faster. My aunt had a baby the summer she was watching my brother and me (worked out well for her - she got two in-house baby-sitters so she could do housework and scrapbook and things.. but we didn't mind!), and my cousin started talking at 11 months. Her other kids didn't start talking that soon, but she didn't have two teenagers sitting there playing with them and talking to each other constantly. And the reading part doesn't come till after the talking. You have a LOT to look forward to now!

And Merry Christmas! We're getting a semi-clear and shiny and freezing cold and slippery Christmas here... no whiteness to speak of.
That's the kind of Christmas we're getting here. Yea, we've started reading to the kids already, but mostly Tolkien stuff, probably will move on to Harry Potter and Chronicles of Narnia; a lot of good reading there.

The name for the girl was selected out of a list of 15 other names, such as Mary, Arwen (no kidding), Shanoa (from the Castlevania game), Liz, Kelly, Erin, and some others. The name for the boy was selected out of a list of a few other names, including David, Stephen, Michael, Luke, etc.

I think the best choices were made, but I liked the name Erin a lot for the girl. Still, I agree with my wife that the best choices were made, at least that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Even though I'm still a young guy and not married, I find the subject of baby names to be very fascinating. I've always been partial to the less-known-but-not-crazy names. One of my nephews for instance is named Brendan (though people sometimes think it is Brandon).

Coincidentally a friend of mine is named Erin. I like that name was well.

Did you know that covetousness is a sin, Tessar?

Well stop coveting the soon-to-be-mine cookies!

Wow, BoP! Those look good! *drools*
I hope I'll have time to make them, because I have to work the whole day on the 31st.
Otherwise, I'll just have to redirect my family here to stare at your pic and imagine they are eating those

Family isn't here yet, so I still have some time to hang around here. *sigh* Not looking forward to the whole 'let's try and fit twelf people in a house for four while keeping a smile on your face" thing though.

For all those interested: Sister Golden Hair was briefly online last night (or yesterday, depending on where you are). I quickly shot off a PM to her, but by the time I finished she had gone offline.

Edit: I just realized that Mari is going to be gone for a few days, which gives me the opportunity to pass up her post count in this thread

More like 8th or 9th, what with it being around in 1999 and all.

*At Entmootia Plaza, near the gargantuan Christmas tree, hundreds of Mooters have gathered to hear the Presidents give the annual Christmas Speech. All small talk dropped and silence reigned as Nurv and Sas stepped up to the raised podium near the towering tree.*
