5th anniversary

[LvivLovers 39]

Well, today is our 5th anniversary and everything is still going smooth as silk. The baby is crawling everyplace and will be walking soon. The wife's petition for her mother got approved about a week ago so we're nearing the end of that whole process too. What's new around the RUB? Any stand out flame wars I should go look up? Been too busy to check last couple weeks.

As far as guns go...finally got out and shot my AR-15....oh man what a blast. Less kick than the Glock and so much more accurate. Don't think I ever missed my target by more than an inch or so with the target as far out as it could go (it's indoor though so it's not that far). Field stripped it for fun and cleaned/lubricated it. Really loving it!

Congratulations on your family (and shooting!)

Congrats to all

Congrats on both the 5th and the baby! No unusually hot flame wars to speak of, just the regular posters at the regular level of snarkiness. One big happy family

Congrats!!!

Congratulations on all of your family's accomplishments and changes. It sounds like your life is going great.

How about some pictures of the baby?

Time flies when you're filling out forms! Congrats on 5 years...same number that cancer survivors look to achieve. Guess there's something magical about the number "5." As for the MIL deal, I'll refrain from expressing my feelings. Good luck with that.

Enjoy the baby while you still have a margin of control. When they start walking it's all downhill. I'm sure you'll be a great dad.

As to shooting, you realize part of your fatherly duties is to teach your kids to shoot safely. Which means you need to teach yourself first. So keep up the training...and have fun.

Additional post has been removed.

Personal attacks are a violation of TOS. The comments contained within the removed posts even though the poster tries to justifiy them as allowable because it is his opinion are still personal attacks. If you have problems with a moderator then you bring your concerns to the attention of administration; you don't take side-swipes at them in the forums.

It is also a false assumption to assume that because a comment isn't actioned that it is condoned by the moderation team. It is far more likely that it has not reached the attention of the moderation team because no one reported it. That still does not make it acceptable.

Further comments of this nature will result in a thread-ban.

Drat! Was hoping for something epic like mcat or one of those UK raids. In any case, I missed that snarkiness!

Yeah...should be interesting! =)

As for baby....he's already so independent. I can imagine it's going to be a challenge if he turns out anything like how I was. I was into everything I wasn't supposed to be into.

Definitely will emphasize the safety....just hope the world is still fairly intact by the time he's of age.

Thanks everyone else for all the congrats/good wishes!
