My favorite Uncle (he's like a second Dad) and his wife just got a baby. I spent yesterday afternoon shopping for baby clothes. Willingly. (Disclaimer: I've previously aired my views on kids: I don't want to give birth to any now, or in the future. ) This baby is very special and I'm campaigning to be a favorite cousin. I still remember what it was like to be a little kid and have some wonderful older cousins pay attention to me or give me a special treat. Despite my disclaimer above, I don't hate kids. And I just realized what cute clothes they have. There are a million other things that are being marketed to Moms and Dads, and I'm thinking "what the hell is that?" Thanks to celebz, there's a lot of interest in designer products for baby. Some are cool, most are just a waste of time and merely status symbols (isn't everything?). There's a this thing called a baby leash. I first saw it being used at the airport, then in a nearby neighborhood. Seems brilliant for handling active toddlers in public places. (Or naughty adults in private...)
P.S. I hate the Burger King commercials with some guy wearing a chicken costume. Seriously, who came up with this ad? That feathery monster just grosses me out and everyone in my digz.

Tell them congrats and post pic please.
Congrats to your Auntie and Uncle but I will say like Pros to Aco.
I give you five years you will change about that baby feeling
@ Shiroh,
That birthing process is scary enough, and afterwards your life changes forever. I can't deal with that. I'm waiting for a pic from them.
@ Nakeel,
Thanks on their behalf. 5 years, we'll wait and see!
Ati a baby leash, that sounds like something a single dad designed...lol
Yup them burger King ads are as gross as ever!Seeing as you are in the no kids train you are in a major minority alongside me, so (clearing throat) if our goals align we should hook up!

@ Potash,
It's a brilliant invention coz running after kids is exhausting!
@ Acolyte,
I'm thinking about writing to Burger King asking them to stop that commercial. Your proposition is rather tempting=) seeing that we agree on so much, only a certain Derailer may have problem with it, ama?
@ girl next door
looks around furtively
whispers- The derailer can be dealt with!

@ Acolyte,
