We haven’t had one of these for awhile, and since I just threw up some pics of the TotKids for a IMHO thread, I thought it would be nice to share them with everyone.

He looks angelic, as do the other children.

My youngest child is seventeen, and right now she is sleeping. I might later ask her to set up an html page to diplay herself and her sisters, but she may be non-cooperative.

**Coldie** expressed my thoughts exactly? Crating a child is now way to train him!

I’d put a link to Spritle Jr’s pics, but I dunno how ☹  
I could type the url in but it’s really long. Hey, Tot, how’d you get the url linked to a word? Did you type in the HTML code with the href= and all?

No offense intended, but the only place I want to see pictures of children are on a milk carton.

Humpfh, question my discipline methods will you? Don’t come crying to me when your kids turn out to be spoiled brats!

**spritle** , you can make a url like this, just use instead of {}

{url="[http://www.straightdope.com/](http://www.straightdope.com/)}Straight Dope{/url}.

And **Hastur** , no offence intended, but if you didn’t want to see pictures of peoples children, perhaps you shouldn’t have opened a thread called “The Show off Pics of your Kids Thread”. Just a suggestion!

Very cute.  
I’d love to show off a pic of the kids in my family, but don’t know how to link to a web site (sigh, technologically impaired) There’s a total of 5 kids, including my exceptionally handsome 16 year old son.

Offense taken, as far as I’m concerned. Lost children are nothing to joke about, **Hastur**. Unless you meant something else, of course.

There’s a pic of my kid in the photo album on my cheesy, sparsely populated home-page thingy… It was taken a couple of years ago, but she hasn’t changed that much.

What a cute bunch of kids. Others may complain about the kid in a cage, but I think the bunny outfit is much worse.

Actually that should be:

You don’t want to leave out the close quotes.

Coldy that wasn’t a bad link. I intentionally broke the code up with [**b][/b**] so **spritle** could just c&p the link from the post. Kind of like what tater just did except the smartass way 😉

Anyhoo… please continue about your little cuties 🙂

pictured with me in [my SDMB People Pages picture](http://www.geocities.com/sdpeoplepages/spider_woman.html).

When this was taken, Angie, the daughter on the left, was 18, and the daughter on right, Ambur, was 16. They are now 22 and 19 (almost 20) and the picture was taken by my now seventeen year old. She hates her own pictures so much, that she refused to have a senior picture taken this year.

Ooops! Thanks Trion! And I’ll have you know, that that isn’t a bunny suit, it’s a Dalmation costume. 😃

And my kids are always that dirty, no matter what I do. I think that they must have been painting right before that picture was taken.

Love the pics, **tatertot**! Especially the suit you put on tinytot while you crate train him.

We got a digital camera for ourselves for Xmas, but have been too lazy to move any of the pictures over to the computer just yet. So yinz will have to put up with these [older photos](http://www.flodnak.com/photo.html) from May and June, taken by my sister and my father-in-law. (We also have one of what appears to be an infant [Nikita Krushchev](http://www.flodnak.com/robby.html). Dunno how that one got there.)
