Youngest letterboxer?

From: Marie & Bob (rtfmef@yahoo.com) | Date: 2005-08-30 01:21:31 UTC
Today Teapot & Eagle took their Grandson TJ for his first box. Not
that he knew or realized anything we were doing. TJ was 15 days old
today. We had a store bought stamp until his Mom carves one of his own.
Anyway he made his mark or should we say we made his mark. Anyone else
have their child or grandchild out at this age?

Hi There Eagle Bob!
We had our new baby "Lil'e" out at 9 days old - she slept through the
whole thing! It was almost a drive by, though - just a five minute
walk from the car. I thought it was more of an accomplishment that I
made it out for the letterbox! Sounds terrible, but it was on New
Year's Day (it was in the low 60's though, unusual for NJ!) and she
was bundled up tight!

Congrats to you and Teapot and to Donna and Darrin on your new bundle
of joy!!

You definitely beat us, I had Nicholas out at 4 months to find Amanda
in Seattle's Baaa Humbug box. Would have been sooner but he was on a
heart monitor for the first 3 months of his life. We will make up for
it now. He has his own stamp custom designed and carved by True
Indigo so look for the mark of L'il Milkmonster in your logs!

Well we did not make the record books for having the youngest child out
for boxing. Nine days old beats us by almost a week. Maybe we can start
a new catagory. Grandparents taking out the youngest boxer. We have to
get into the record books somehow. Of course when making up a new
catagory I guess I could make it narrow enough so that we would have to
make the head of the list no matter what. Watch for TJ's Teddybear HH
now on the prowl.

Well now I want to find a box on the way home from the hospital. That
could fit the claim of youngest boxer? Of course, I might want to
find a husband and a child first :)

something to store away for the future . . .

Better yet, simply stay home to have the baby, then trot out a few hours
later to snag a box. Even better!

a fun choice to explain to people.

How about this? Find the
most beautiful, remote
letterbox area, bring your
family, midwife or doctor
and birth your baby right
there! After cleaning them
up , you can use their
little feet and hands for
the stamps. You have to ink
their hands and feet for the
official records anyhow!

Jake was pretty young when he got his first box, but it was a PLB. We received it the day I
brought him home from the hospital! He went to his first gathering last weekend at 4
months. He doesn't have his own stamp yet though.

I like the idea of having the baby at home and then dashing out for a find, or a place!!
