It's okay though if we don't always wake up where we should be.
I have some personal experience with this.

@Matt
Waking up in random places is a right of passage in growing older, would say growing up but some never get to that stage@EdH
We moved into what was then the back bedroom when Jacob was born as it got the brunt of the afternoon sun here and would easily reach the high 30s in summer at night due to the crap way they build houses here and the residual heat from the day no way we were letting a baby sleep in those conditions even with air con on the go -

I love this thread, it sure brings back fond memories of those years!
I’ll call myself a veteran (I’m not really). We have two teenagers 16 and 18.
If you thought parenting infants was tough work, wait till their hit their teens :).
My advice is this … keep things simple, your time is the biggest and most important thing you can gift your children. Be kind, patient, and love them for who they are.
Last, have fun, joke and laugh. If you look carefully in the second photo, you’ll see how the kids and I love to spoil moms perfect family photos.

@T4920 Not so sure about the eyes - hers are bright blue, like her mum's. Last person in my family to have blue eyes was my grandmother. But yeah, I'm with you on the brows. I just hope she doesn't get a unibrow, like I had to contend with as a kid. Got that shit lasered as soon as I was old enough.
@Matt She's understood the assignment, that's for sure!

No advice here, just a picture of me with my four kids from my 37th birthday last week. We were on vacation in the thousand islands, New York. Fwiw I will say I’ve felt tired for about 11 years now since my first was born.

@AdamC Baby H wasn't trying to put it on. She was variously trying to put the pointy end into her mouth or her eyeball!
Then she discovered a wonderful game where you grab the chain, put your feet against Daddy's throat, and push/pull, and Daddy makes a funny choking noise. She laughed at that.
