Congrats on the little drape-ape, SternO...

From my own experiences:

Don't "help Daddy paint faster" by taking off all the paint-bottle lids.

Don't "help protect baby sis" by taking off all the spray can nozzles and "hiding them from her" so she "won't spray in her eyes".

Don't test Daddy's knife blades for sharpness on Mommy's new kitchen chair cushions.

Don't use Daddy's razor saws for modifying steel Tonka Trucks into "Convertables".

If you want your room painted, wait until Daddy can get to Sears and buy wall paint.

The 1/35th scale Army trucks are NOT for hauling Nestle's Quik. 

The airplanes will NOT fly.

Congrats and hope you are getting a little sleep. Our daughter was 15 months old the first time she slept through the nightZzz [zzz] When the little one gets a little older...

No matter how tempting it is don't use your Black Cat firecrackers and dad's 1:35 scale armor collection to reenact famous battles.

When you have company at the house don't ask them if they want to see the "toys" that dad is always playing with. 

Don't use your dad's model enamel to make cool tattoos for your little brother or sister.

my sign for the work space is getting bigger

I don't have rules posted anymore, just a sign that reads, "No Admitance Without Escort.  USE OF DEADLY FORCE IS AUTHORIZED"...

sterno's baby rules for painting/dio making
Posted by camo junkie on Tuesday, September 15, 2009 7:40 AM

he guys, this is way off topic but with things being rather tense in the forums lately i thought maybe we could have a little fun and laugh at something. first off , congrats to stern0 for his wife is giving birth to a baby boy in november. secondly, as part of the fun i thought we could make up some rules his kid should be taught/should follow when it comes time for daddy to "teach" him about modelling. i've come up with these 3. hope you'll "play" along guys. Big Smile [:D]

rule #1...dont sniff the glue!!!

rule #2 dont eat the glue!!!

rule #3 dont glue dad's toys to the bench!!!

jim barton: came up with this one

Rule #4: Don't paint the doggie and/or the kitty with Daddy's airbrush!
