Congratulations GoSwannies - and A+ marks for you and goswanette for starting the critical Swans education very early

We can only hope … though we would be happy for her just to be a devoted Swans fan
Thank you Sandridge - looking forward to getting her lots more as the years pass
Thanks deja - we think she’s adorable … even when she’s upset, which isn’t often. Her affinity is a little parentally inflicted at the moment, but if I figure, if she doesn’t know better from birth, she’ll be ok with it. I hope it works!
1% chance of being a Crows supporter? :hmm that’d be the same 1% chance she’s sent to a boarding school in Sydney to ensure she is straightened out.
Aww thank you Roadrunner. As goswannette oft’ says “we are smitten”
Love your crystal ball - hope you’re accurate
Thank you Rouge … Buddy will be flattered that you liken his plush to the great Adam Goodes
To paraphrase Bilbo Baggins “We’re off on an adventure!” 3 seniors and 3 reserves wins since gocygnet’s debut!
She’ll hopefully be there for the Christmas function this year! She looks forward to meeting her SA Swans family
Only a Swans supporter can understand and appreciate this!
Thanks giant!Comment

Cheers ugg!!
Parenting is a fun, exciting but challenging. Any tips are welcome as she’s our first. The photos we’re getting better at though
much easier with a smart phone and you can take as many pictures as you want & choose the best ones, compared to the older days of a camera with film and you had one chance to get it right!
Will have to hit you up on how to keep her a Swan in Crow country (goswannette has already politely informed the Crows supporting grandparents that if they buy Crows stuff, it won’t be kept in our house
). Pity my Swans supporting grandswannie lives in Cairns!
Hope to see you at the Christmas function
Awww thanks Mel … we adore her
Cheers Mark26! gocygnet’s first red & white gear was a gift from a long-stay patient - little hand knitted red & white booties … about 5 years before gocygnet was born! (knitting apparently kept my patient entertained) gocygnet’s tiny pair matched pairs the patient knitted for myself and goswannette. We wore them watching last weeks game

… gocygnet wasn’t happy at the start of the final quarter!
Thanks KSAS! I can’t wait to teach gocygnet about the rich South Melbourne history of the Club. I’ve got some old South gear that I had as a kid for when she’s big enough too. I’ve got Lorraine Wilson’s children’s books “Carn the Swans” that I’ve started reading to her. & thanks for the positive views on the pic - not always as well received in Crow country
. But that’s why I love RWO!
“First birth shared on RWO … More of it!” … if you mean have another baby, we’ll sort gocygnet first! If you mean more pictures, sure! If you mean other members first baby announcements - all for that!!!

Gorgeous! Congratulations!!All opinions are not equal. Some are a very great deal more robust, sophisticated, and well supported in logic and argument than others. -Douglas Adams, author (11 Mar 1952-2001)

Thanks Chalbito. She was her moments, as all babies do, but we adore her.
Thanks bloodspirit. I think all babies are (at least to their parents - makes all those periods of crying and sleepless nights bearable)
Cheers stevo, hard work at times but a lot of fun! Worth every secondComment

All the above! Warms this old South Melbourne boy's heart that you're indoctrinating South's history with gocygnet.Thanks KSAS!
