Precious, Precious Baby!
She is gorgeous. Congratulations, Grandma! :-)
A beautiful picture and a beautiful message. s/m
Here's wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving Day! We truly do have a lot to be thankful for. 
Oh, how precious!

Precious pup!
Picture of your baby just brought back sooo many memories of our precious BUBBA. He was a rescue dog with many major health issues but never/ever complained and gave us about 7-8 years of sheer joy. We are now dogless for the first time in many, many years and want another boxer so much but the thought of losing another one is still so heavy on our minds. When we took him in, we immediately bonded, then found out he was heartworm infested... NOT A PROBLEM: He never missed a step... even gained weight during HW treatment! A few years later, had a tumor on his back leg which we had removed.. then later had the limb amputated... still, he just kept on going, without a problem. God, what a trooper. Finally, succumbed to cancer, never gave up or even complained until the last day of his life. Such a precious, darling friend... to the end. Just not sure I am ready to go through this again so soon. Boxers are such the noble breed, and I am also a Great Dane and English Bulldog owner and lover, all of the good ones die young! Can't seem to get one past 10 years and that is WAAAY too early!
She's so precious !!!!! nm

So so precious! sm
She actucally reminds me a lot of my daughter when she was born. I was so happy cause she had the same color of hair as me. It then all fell out and came back in blond.
too precious
He is adorable
Precious... Too many times...
we overlook what "grown-up jobs" mean to our young children. They want to help, "butt" (how cute) most of all they want to feel you need them as much as they need you. Thank you for sharing your special time with your daughter and your son I'm most sure appreciates what you are doing he just hasn't expressed that yet. You will most likely get another "surprise" from him when he has his new room... You're doing great spoken from another "Mom" who likes to bond....  They won't be this age 4-ever... cherish it... only happens once....
Mine is precious, BUT...sm
very hyperactive and co-dependent. He will not go outside by himself and if he realizes that Ruston is not in the house with him, he freaks out trying to find him. It is almost funny until you see the fear in his little face!
precious pets
Our pets, our friends, are so very, very precious. They love us unconditionally. What a blessing it is to share our lives with our pets. I am so very sorry for what has happened. I will pray for you. All our beloved pets, I optimistically feel, will be joined with us one day.
You are precious. You are correct. I'm with you 100%, Jan. nm

He's precious, floppy ear and all! Is that you
s
aaahhh, that is precious
Wish my kids still did things like that. Thye are 15 and 17. Even though they are wonderful ( I coule brag for hours but nobody wants to hear that and I don't blame them) just cherish each and every moment. Like Kenney Chesney says "Don't blink".
Absolutely! They are all so precious!!!
Thanks for the info!
Gary is so precious!
Do you get his name from Spongebob's "cat" (Gary the snail)?
I have 3 precious ones myself, all rescues, 2 Siamese mutts and a Maine Coon mutt!! Love my boo-boos!
Precious puppies! nm

So precious...now about this litter for dogs
What is the name of it and where can I find it? I have never heard of litter for dogs. This is just the best news I have heard all day!
These are precious! I have old stuff I made way
s
I always try to give up time, which I have precious little of!
I try to spend some part of every day in prayer for other people, usually the patients that pass across my computer screen each day. I also try to do more service, as well.
If you look up the word PRECIOUS in the dictionary
you would see this picture! They are just too adorable for words!
I love animals so much and this is just precious!
Have 2 cats and 1 kitten and love where the kitty is grooming the deer. Thanks for sharing this!
We lost our precious Misha today.
My precious 7-year-old Siberian husky, Misha, passed away this morning. I love her so much that I use her name as mine a lot on message boards like this. She was the first dog I ever had as an adult, all mine and my husband's.
She was born 7 years and 41 days ago, and we brought her home at 8 weeks. Her color was cream white with diamonds of light red in two spots; one on her shoulders and one on her tail. At nine weeks she saw her first snow, the biggest she would ever see, of 19 inches of heavenly cold, white snow. She was potty trainined in about 2 weeks. She attended puppy kindergarten and excelled. We were so proud! She was a very good puppy and had both her parents at home with her every day for the first four months of her life.
I was her dog walker and protector, and I remember that when I fell while walking her and dropped the leash, she would start to run for joy, until she saw me on the ground. Then she would return to me and sit on me, just a puppy of 6 months old. We lived in a townhouse with a great big kitchen that was great for puppy training, but as she got bigger, we wanted a fenced-in yard for her to explore. So we bought a house with a fenced-in yard for her. The first time we let her out there with the big oak and pine tree -shaded yard, you could see her happiness at being able to cavort off leash. So now we needed a playmate for her. We adopted another Siberian husky of the same age, but pure white, and named her Sasha. In the morning my husband would let them out about 5:00 a.m., and I would be awakened by the sound of them racing through the leaves around the back yard, wrestling and using play growls. Now my Sasha was very adventurous, and she taught Misha, my digger, to dig along the fence line so they could escape. So I would either notice they were missing or get a phone call telling me my dogs had visited some neighbor, who had gotten my number off a tag. One time when dear husband was searching for them, he found them playing in a yard with a family, the father allowing them to kiss his 2-year-old child, so gentle with children were they.
By 2 years old, we had conquered their efforts to dig out by using chicken wire, and we learned how much adventure they required to keep them content at home. They became model citizens. Some time between the ages of 3 and 4, my Misha's personality became more serious. She became less and less playful with Sasha, and more serious. I was unsure whether this was the normal personality of the more dominant dog,
or whether something might be wrong with her. She had foot problems, and the vet treated this with antibiotics and finally surgery. She had muscle pain, and pain medicine caused her to act more like a puppy again. I told this to the vet. I would mention her blood-shot eyes and face rubbing and the suspicion that she might have a headache. Vet just offered eye ointment and suggested Benadryl. I continued to bring her in for each small thing that came up, thinking it would provide a pattern if there were some autoimmune disease going on. I was now working outside the house, and whenever it was cool, Misha slept outside. I continued to provide the thickest of orthopedic beds and the best food in the hopes of keeping her healthy. She enjoyed the dog park, but didn't run with the other dogs often. She was overweight due to her appetite and my wanting to keep her happy and giving too many treats. Occasionally she would play with a huge rottweiler or mastiff, so I hoped this just meant that her behavior was all an act to show how dominant she was, and how beneath her it was for her to play with smaller, less dominant dogs. At home she would lie around looking depressed, but would always perk up when we decided to take them somewhere, so I thought she was just bored at home.
In September I came back home to work. I didn't see a big change, except that Misha was restless and couldn't decide where she wanted to be. Getting treats was very important to her, and her weight was now near 90. Then we went on vacation at the end of October. It was extremely hard for me to leave them behind, but my parents were paying for the trip and no pets were allowed. We boarded them. During the boarding, the downward spiral started with Misha biting Sasha and tearing her ear.
Once home we started seeing her spending hours pacing, circling, depressed and lethargic, yet anxious. When we'd take her to the vet, the stimulation seemed to pull her out of her funk, and she always appeared normal to vets. I felt very helpless because it seemed they didn't believe us or that we were somehow wrong. I worried about a brain tumor, so I read up on all the diseases that might cause her symptoms. According to her breeder, Misha's father had lupus (SLE), so I hoped that was it. Vet thought it was possible. He did lab testing and gave antibiotics and steroids. The steroids returned Misha to her 2-year-old personality, which was a joy, but also scary because a tumor would often respond that way, but so would lots of conditions.
At the end, I had to get ugly with the vets to get her seen at the vet school. When they saw her then, she was very symptomatic, and they were pretty sure she had a brain tumor. But they wanted to test. An MRI or CT were needed. Hard to get done at Christmas.
In the end she responded well to phenobarbital and had a good day on Christmas eve. Then today, Christmas morning, she had another seizure, and she stopped breathing. We had to let her go.
We are very sad. She was a very good dog. None better.

That is precious. It really is. Too many husbands not involved these days! nm

Love puppies of all kinds! How precious yours must look

Do they ever grow out of this?? My once precious and sweet 3 year old son has sm
turned into a holy terror. Wow. For the past 2 weeks he has been completely nonsensical and out of control. Any little thing throws him off and he begins destroying the house, kicking, yelling, screaming, etc. This morning I woke up to him crying on the couch without any clothes on, so I told him to go put something on (it's freezing in here!), to which he told me NO! Of course he received a spanking for that (what a way to wake up, huh?). Well, he's been pitching a fit for almost 2 hours now since I refused to cook him pancakes. I told him if he would behave I would make them. Well, he doesn't want to do anything but scream and throw fits, so I won't make them. He has said the word pancake at least 200 times since early this morning. I cannot reward bad behavior, so now I'm just ignoring him which is what my pediatrician told me to do the other day. If I deal with him, I may regret it later. Yes, can you tell I am completely frustruated?
I know they say different things work for different children, but NOTHING works with him. I never, ever spanked before. But the chair became a joke as he would just jump right back down out of his chair and run out the room screaming. He refused to sit down. So then I had to begin spanking him and of course that just makes him angrier, meaner, and he won't listen to a word I say. As soon as I begin talking to him and explaining what I am doing he screams to "override" my voice.
I cried all day Sat. because my husband took my older soon to a ball game and my 3 year old was really bad that morning. I just wanted a little peace, but he refused. So we battled all morning until lunch. It has been every single day like this. Yesterday was bad, but not too bad. Today is really bad, but not as bad as Saturday. I wonder what is going on? He is so unreasonable. The thing is, my husband says, "he's 3. How can you not handle a 3 year old?" Like just now, as I'm typing this, he just said to me, "mommy's STUPID!!" I haven't heard that one all morning, so let me go take care of it. Please say a prayer for me...and him too.
Awwww, what a precious, sweet face!
Thanks for sharing!
My precious daughter, Becca, gave me a kitchen wash cloth and two lollipops. I love it! She was ab

My babies liked them, and ....
I liked them, too; once I got used to them that is. It took me a bit to position them in there just so, in a way that I felt they were comfortable. I used it a lot - much easier on tired arms! I also used a front carrier when they were a little older, (like a couple of months old), and liked that just as well. :-)
babies
Forgot I cannot use quotes. My babies are not mine - niece has babies, I just get to be surogate grandma for them. Wish they were my own, but unfortunately, I am way toooo old to raise babies!!
These are my babies....sm
This is CJ, which if you believe others, would be a evil, dangerous, not to be trusted pitbull. NOT!! He is so sweet. Also the beagle is my Darla. She is very fat and very lazy. CJ and Darla are bestest friends.
my babies!
Boy Bailey (white one) and Girl Rylee
Both now 2.5 and about 50 pounds!
i love them to pieces!

my two lil sweethearts
Having babies.......
In our case, my hubby and I were married two years before we started our family. My niece, who was 22 at the time, was married less than six months when they decided to have a child. My daughter, now 25, was married 4 years before they started working on a baby and she is now due in February.
Another friend of the family, also in her mid 20s, was married less than a year as well when they decided to have a baby. Another niece was married 10 years before they caved in, or should I say she caved in. Her husband has been wanting a child for years but she was too worried her figure would suffer... (OH BOY!) Well, she is now due in a couple of weeks and he is elated. He is now 36 years old and I too think he has waited long enough. She will have that child so spoiled.
All in all, you need to decide these thing beforehand. If you guys have been together for a while, then maybe starting a family within a year or so isn't such a big deal. I don't really go for all this getting to know one another stuff. You should already know one another before the wedding anyway. So many couples have been together these days for years before getting hitched that I don't really see the need to wait any particular length of time before starting a family.
I must say though, having babies in your 20s is a lot easier when it comes to chasing them around and getting up in the middle of the night over and over. I've had friends have children in their mid to late 30s and a couple in their 40s, and I have to say they lack the energy, especially the 40 somethings. Good luck with whatever you decide.
Just be glad he is looking forward to children and to being a father.... too many dads out there who don't give a rip!
These are my babies....sm
The big bulldog is much more of a tit than the beagle believe it or not. He would just die if I left him somewhere. I don't know what to do with him if we go somewhere.
and someday, men WILL be having babies...n/m
I'm walking for babies!
Hello everybody!
I posted this before but i wanted to repost and explain some things. First of all, i never ever receive any of the money when you donate it goes straight to the Walk America people. I just thought this was for a really good cause and thought maybe some of you would want to be included on this serious problem in our world. You can donate as little or as much as you want.
http://www.walkamerica.org/tanyabyer
That is the website they made for me. I'll be walking 4-14 in my hometown. Or if you know anybody that would want to be included let them know! Thanks so much for your time and i won't repost this again lol. Just thought some of you thought maybe it was a scam or something.
Thanks again.
My Furry Babies
The bigger one is Mojo and the skinnier one is Mimi. Mimi showed up on our door a year ago as a stray - very skittish, skin and bones. She disappeared a month later, showed back up two months after that and has never tried to leave the house again!
Aren't our babies fun??
 My Simon tries to put two toys in his mouth and throws them at my feet when I'm working - okay, I get the hint!! 80 degrees in Texas Monday - awesome.
Your babies are adorable!
I think it is really sweet that you love them so much that seeing their picture makes you teary. I am sure that they miss you as much as you miss them. Hopefully, you will be reunited soon!
I agree with you that these babies need
support, but I don't think any monetary donations made will go to these babies. I'm hoping the mother receives WIC to provide them with formula and food stamps to provide for the older children. If anyone wants to make donations, I would suggest all donations be made in the form of diapers, clothes, toys, etc. No money, no way.

PS -- I would adopt one of these babies as well, but I think the mom is too selfish to give them up.
People have babies...
They better fix her first or she'll pop out another 10 babies... sm
on camera.
We usually have babies on the front - sm
and back porches, though I got rid of the nest on the back table on the porch as it was just a drag having to worry about if the dogs were going to figure it out and eat the babies, had it barricaded in a bit last year and all surived though. It was right by the back door which we let the dogs in and out from so it took them a while to get used to that. We did not hang out plants this year out front but when we do we always end up with a nest in the plant, makes it hard to water but we still manage to do it. But no nests so far front or back, had a family of rabbits under the shed though that all survived from whatI can tell, at least our dogs did not get any. Last year had a cardinal build a nest about 2.5 feet off the ground in the backyard and my Lab knocked the babies out, we put them back in the nest and moved it to a safe location near where they had it but they ended up dying. The birds tried again though, this time in a tree right by the back porch, high enough so the dogs could not reach luckily and they all made it that time. Neat to watch every year, will have to keep a look out. The birds have been stealing my husky's tuffs of fur I am pulling out from his massive shedding going on rigiht now. Seeing them flying off with fur in their beaks is funny.
I don't know nothin' about deliverin' no babies...
But just the fact that she was unaware that the hospital she sent them to had closed their birthing unit is VERY scary. None of the other stuff sounds kosher either. Thankfully, this story had a happy ending. Still, I'd follow up and if this woman IS a fraud, I'd sure want her shut down so she couldn't harm someone else.
This is exactly why women are the ones who have babies. Most men are such "WIMPS" it isn't
even funny!!!!! They can't handle it. That is the ONLY reason a man won't take care of his health - because they are afraid of what the doc might say. I say, be a man, toughen up, and take care of yourself! It doesn't do anyone any good if you're good and dead! Trust me on this one. It took me YEARS to get my husband to go to the doc. He finally did it and now is better than me when it comes to appointments! hahahaha
Zoo Question -Animal Babies
Why do they keep animal babies in the zoo nursery? Their mothers are in the zoo. It seemed so inhumane to have them alone in an isolette or crib with a warmer.~ :(
My SIL was heavy and had two healthy babies.
With her last pregnancy, she started walking and eating better while she was pregnant. She weighed less at the end of her pregnancy than at the beginning. Baby was 7 lbs and healthy, too!
D'oh! Can you STAND little babies?!
Oh how I wish they could stay that way forever! They are so much fun--tearassing around the house, exploding and jumping in midair over apparently nothing, leaving the litterbox at warp speed after taking a dump...
That's it...I need something new to cuddle! 
so sorry, it sure hurts when you lose your babies.. nm

Get rid of the cat? Seriously, this is like having babies and asking how to keep poop off the diaper
