GTKY?

[Deleted]

1. DS is Dallas. No nicknames though he does get called "pumpkin" a lot. We have a calico kitty named Macey. H calls her "little bitch".

2. I like to read and SLEEP! Nursing school provides a lot of the former (though nothing good) and a baby and nursing school provides none of the latter.

[mrsplaydoh]

I have two girls, Dahlia Wren and Juno Paige
I have two fur-baby Bengal cats named Hydra and Spartacus
Interesting.......I was born on Christmas Day and I absolutely love it!

[strawberrytree]

1. I have two boys, Gareth Brian & Ewan Kelly. No fur babies but when the boys are older we plan on getting a dog when the boys are older. Dh has already picked out Beowulf or Thor for the dog's name.

2. Another former dancer here. Pre baby I also loved to travel and have visited 38 countries. I can't think of anything else interesting about myself.

[elizdg]

1. I have a 2.5 year old named Graham Stuart. Baby #2 is due in August and is not yet named We have two Chinese Crested dogs, Winston and Esther.

2. I took the classes to become a certified scuba diver, and then almost drowned on my certification dive. I haven't dived since because now I'm scarred for life.

[tarheelmom]

1. DD is Jocelyn (2yo), no nn yet...she was called Franklin prior to my anatomy scan
Dog Michelangelo (4.5yo), nn Mikey, renamed from shelter name Mickey (he's in my avatar with Jocelyn)
Dog Elizabetta (3.5yo), nn Lizzy, renamed from shelter name Eliza
Cat Maximus (14.5yo), nn Max

2. DH and I met in a pub poker (No Limit Texas Hold 'Em) league. I had the highest percentage of final tables in the league, and he had the highest percentage of wins -- very telling of our different personalities.

[missycee]

DD is Juliette. Liberty. We have a boy on the way but still deciding between a few names.

Cats are Clementine and Mirabella.

Something interesting about me, I met DH on a business trip in Jamaica. Less than three months after we met I left NY and moved in with him in PA. Our wedding day was two years exactly after we met.

[olenka]

1. My daughter's name is Margaret. She has about 1000 nicknames, none of which are Maggie. One kitty, Olga/Olenka. (Not the kitty in my avatar; that is the dear, departed Mr. Furley.)
2. I was a heavy metal DJ for many years. I used to be cool...

[Deleted]

1. No human babies yet, but my dog is Chuck Barkowski (see picture).

2. I had a baby name book when I was in elementary school (still have it, actually) because I liked to give my doll house families (about 15 dolls) full first, middle, and last names, which changed often. The only two I remember are Jeremiah Whitaker LN and Christopher Tate LN, neither of which I would use now, but which I think are not too bad considering I was 8 at the time.

1. What are the names of your babies, human and fur?
DD is Caroline Ruth. Dog is Duncan, cats are Reese and Butterscotch.

2. Something interesting about yourself.
DH and I love roadtrips and are planning on taking a 3 week trip out west this summer, with a two year old in tow. We might be slightly crazy, but want to visit all 50 states before our 10 year anniversary (only 6 left).

I kind of just wanted to figure out how to make a thread.

We never really did many GTKYs on the old board, so if you'd like to participate, feel free!

2. Something interesting about yourself.


1. My son is Harrison. He does not go by a nn.
I have two dogs. A sassy pom-a-poo who thinks she's a cat named Ava Faith and a special needs (wobblers syndrome) Great Dane named Sadie Joy. We've actually extended her name to Seraphina Jovana though, mainly when she's in trouble.

2. I like to write. Before college, I spent some time in Nashville working with well-known songwriters (I also play guitar and sing). After I was laid off from work last Sept, I wrote a novel within a month and am currently working my ass off to get an agent. It's not so fun.

My children's names are  Alexander or Alex,   Sean,  Conor, Carson, and Liliana(Lili).     My dogs names are Geronimo and Takoda.  My cats names are Callie, and Carlie.

2.  I am in the process of renewing my teaching degree so I can start subbing.   I don't want to leave Liliana full-time yet, but we need the extra money.

[coconuthead]

1. What are the names of your babies, human and fur? DS is Lucian Barack, dog (co-owned) is Kiora, cats are Agnes and Dexter. Late dog was Ananda. Bettas are Mars and Feynman. Tarantulas are all named but are pretty numerous for me to list all of their names.


2. Something interesting about yourself.

I like spiders. Other than that I am pretty dull!

[chibiyui]

1. No human babies yet, but we do have a girls name picked out. I'm not allowed to share it though We have three goldfish, Bruce, Gordon, and Fluffy.

2. I went to school for animation, and am easily distracted by shiny things.

[jbirdie1]

1. I have two daughters, Shelby Kate and Isla. Currently pregnant with number 3; if a boy Harrison Michael and if a girl Clara June.
We have no pets.

2. I'm not super interesting...I have a teaching degree but dread the thought of teaching, I love reading/researching car seat safety, and I'm obsessed with baby/little girls' boutique clothing.

[pippin]

1. I have a six month old son named Milo Douglas. My yorkie is named Pippin, named after the LOTR character, not the musical (which I haven't seen).

2. I've never broken a bone or had the chicken pox. Not very interesting, but it's all I can think of right now!

[midnightsun]

We have one dog named Luna.

I'm pretty boring. I'm really into snowmobiling and hockey, neither of which I am doing much of this winter now that I am pregnant.

[cmonkey]

I'm a lurker, but I love names so I figured I'd jump in.

I have a 3 year old DS names Wesley Paul. We call him Wes about half the time. Also two male dogs named Jasper and Reese. And a lizard named Peter Parker.

I have always wanted to write fiction. I've come up with a few ideas that I thought were great. I'm always too nervous to actually write anything though because I'm afraid people will hate it and laugh at me.

[killertofu]

I have a human baby named Ian. I used to have 2 fur babies named Lola and Bowser, but human baby is allergic. Luckily, we have some wonderful friends who were willing to expand their fur family

Hmm....interesting fact. I'm going on year two of raising backyard chickens. I love having featherbabies to name. Right now I have Cleo, Lucy, Ramona
, Louise, and Red.

Oh girl, story of my life. But with comics instead of straight writing.

[ladymouse]

Interesting fact: I have seen the band Styx 8 times in Concert. I'm reeeaally cool. ;-)

[zimger]

I have two boys, Liam and Eliot and two Angel Babies. We also have a cat named Jack.

I am an amateur astronomer and I enjoy photography (especially lith printing and lomography).

[wineistheanswer]

1. What are the names of your babies, human and fur? Human baby has no name yet... poor little dude. We have about 10 weeks to figure one out though! My dogs are Riley, Zoey, and Bear (we didn't choose his name), and my cat is Lily. I give my pets human names...

2. Something interesting about yourself.
I like to keep busy... I'm an operations manager for a construction company by day and a travel agent by night. Free time allows be to be a licensed massage therapist. My college degree, however, is in parent-child relationships and social work.

[jazzra369]

BunnyBerry love that you know Chinese! Are you Chinese or did you learn it later in life? I don't speak it but DH does and wants to get our son into it.
dreadpiratebuttercup I can't believe that your dogsitter just lost your dogs like that! I would be so devastated and angry.

My son is Eth.an Li.am. Something interesting - we lived in Italy for 3 years and DS was born there. I like photography, sewing, crossfit, triathlons, and reading.

[BunnyBerry]

jazzra369 I studied Chinese in college, and met DH (who is Chinese) when studying/teaching abroad. It's so cool that YH wants to teach your son!

1. DD1 is Elinor Catherine nn Nora. DD2 is Matilda Ann nn Tilly. Dogs are Bailey (girl) and Copper (boy). We just had another one of our fur-babies put down earlier this week ::tears:: She was named Brandy.

2. Something interesting about myself... Do you watch the show "90 day fiance"? No, I wasn't on the show. But I was a 90 day fiance. I moved to the US from Canada on a K1 VISA back in 2003. We had 90 days to be married or I would have been sent back across the border. I moved here  just before the 4th of July weekend, and we got married on September 6th, 2003.
