                        Top Ten Advantages to Having a Baby
                        (for modelers)

                        10:Small unsafe plastic toys can be harvested for potential scratchbuild.

                        9: You are no longer the "creepy guy" in the toy aisle when holding a small child.

                        8: Wife occupied for hours on end, too exhausted to notice new model stash.

                        7: Baby wipes: good for your messes too.

                        6: Baby food jars good for storing small parts.

                        5: That snot sucker thingie is an excellent parts picker.

                        4: Cloth diapers = buffing pads.

                        3: Plastic bottles good for mixing paint and nipple insures drop by drop color accuracy.

                        2: Once no longer needed for baby, breast pump can be converted into mini vacuum forming unit.

                        1: Its one scratch build you can finish in 9 months.

                        Thanks Matt. Big Smile [:D] I'm taking Friday off so we can go for the first ultrasound. We are very excited because seven years ago they told us De could never become pregnant again. What do they know?Tongue [:P]

                        Congrats mate!

                        My litle girl is only 2, and she holds the decals for me before they go into the water.. She is one of these kids who simply loves stickers of any sought.. So when she asks me for the 18th millionth time "what are you doing".. I say that I am playing with my special stickers!....So now the wife doesnt get angry with me when I build, as I am spending "quality time" with her!..

                        Good luck to you and your wife!

                        Thanks Chris. It sounds like you have a first rate helper.Wink [;)] My seven year old helps(?) me out quite a bit. I wouldn't have it any other way.
