Thanks for the walk down memory lane,or should I say Moo-mory Lane? And someone thinks it's out of control? That was before the thread went into triple digits.
ETA: The troll screen names are priceless. "I support single mawms?" How do you do that? By fucking them? How about paying for them so the rest of us won't have to? And zazu's name is easily found via spokeo.

I am so glad you resurrected this thread for any new folks that haven't read it, Poof. Although I know a good bit of it is Schnozz and her patented brand of "blah, blah, blah, TL;DR", it's still classic BF.

No kidding, Law - same here. I think my parents might possibly have taken that many photos of me over the course of my lifetime, but it can't be much more. Imagine how many photos of this kid she'll have amassed by the time the fruit of her loins reaches the age of 30? The photo books will be piled to the ceiling à la Hoarders.
By the way, I checked out her Flickr account (I'm a glutton for punishment, clearly) and there was a picture of the baby's feet. A commenter offered Alexa up a link to a poem about how adorable and wonderful the feet of an infant truly are. I'll let you read this pukeworthy offering yourselves:

After I was finished reading this masterpiece, I scrolled to the bottom of the very same poetry page and found this gem of a rhyme which I simply must share with my CF friends. I know you'll enjoy it just as much as I did. It was written by the same ball-less wonder that penned the 'Baby Feet' poem, of course. I thought about making snarky comments line by line, but it's really not worth it. You'll all have the same thoughts I did about it and we're already all on the same page. Enjoy.

No Children!
-Edgar Guest
No children in the house to play--
It must be hard to live that way!
I wonder what the people do
When night comes on and the work is through,
With no glad little folks to shout,
No eager feet to race about,
No youthful tongues to chatter on
About the joy that's been and gone?
The house might be a castle fine,
But what a lonely place to dine!
No children in the house at all,
No fingermarks upon the wall,
No corner where the toys are piled--
Sure indication of a child.
No little lips to breathe the prayer
That God shall keep you in His care,
No glad caress and welcome sweet
When night returns you to your street;
No little lips a kiss to give--
Oh, what a lonely way to live!
No children in the house! I fear
We could not stand it half a year.
What would we talk about at night,
Plan for and work with all our might,
Hold common dreams about and find
True union of heart and mind,
If we two had no greater care
Than what we both should eat and wear?
We never knew love's brightest flame
Until the day the baby came.
And now we could not get along
Without their laughter and their song.
Joy is not bottled on a shelf,
It cannot feed upon itself,
And even love, if it shall wear,
Must find its happiness in care;
Dull we'd become of mind and speech
Had we no little ones to teach.
No children in the house to play!
Oh, we could never live that way!

Why does someone need 200 pictures of their kid?? I don't think 200 pictures have been taken of me my entire lifetime and I'm 32.

Oh no, that fine poem wasn't written by Alexa, Kim - a fan of hers sent her a link to that poet's "work", and that one happened to be on the same page.
It's here:

I also recommend 'What a Baby Costs' and 'Only a Dad'. Be sure you have your barf bucket on hand, though.

LOL! Thanks for the warning. I remember the flotsamblog, but vaguely. I'm gonna skim through the thread later on and maybe it'll refresh my memory. I do remember the important stuff though like her husband left after she INSISTED on continuing the "ttc" nonsense, and then the kyd had a million+ dollar hospital bill because of all it's"special needs".

Kim, you're confusing Alexa with Antigone. Antigone was the one with the abusive husband who left because of too much ttc. Antigone's deal was that she kept having miscarriages, but her zygote finally survived long enough even to the point where she was scheduled to have labor induced. She quit blogging, or started a private one more likely, shortly after "Percy" the loaf hatched. At the last notice, there was no excessive dollar amount involved in that one.
Alexa's husband is still in the picture, although you'd never know it because he's hardly ever IN her pictures, but she does talk about him from time to time. Actually I wouldn't know how it is recently because I don't read her blog unless we're making fun of it.
