They're locusts! Locusts, I tell you!
My three children, two of whom are tiny, have just demolished 17 frozen waffles. Thank goodness we have a four slot toaster - it wasn't quite adequate to keep ahead of them. Every time four waffles popped up, I'd grab them and turn to the table to see at least one child staring at me with an empty plate and hopeful eyes. If we just had a two slot toaster, I'm not entirely convinced they wouldn't have eaten ME.

Any three kids that can eat 17 waffles have to be true BAYERS!
Our mom Bayer (RIP) had 13 children... a Sunday breakfast treat was waffles.... made on a double waffle iron. I don't remember her ever running out of waffles or ever not gettting all I wanted.... must have been something like the loaves and fishes.
Mom and Dad Bayer family reunion this past year had 119 family members present out of 195.
We have family website (Bayer's Den)and are developing a family tree and history section.
Dad was from Bad Mergentheim Germany... came to states in 1927.
Mom (Leib) was born in Des Moines, raised in Duluth and Minneapolis.
We are looking for family members from other branches.
Most of family lives in Michigan.
If you are interested in the "Bayers", reply.

Hmm. Kev's family is from Michigan. Do tell more! Link, whatever.
Grandpa Christian D Bayer had two brothers... John went to Chicago, Frederick went to Philadelphia.
My dad Christian P. Bayer and sisters Annie and Elsi, and brother Alfred came to Detroit in 1920s.

Yeah, My dad's from Warren MI. His dad, Julius came over from, Germany or Poland - but I don't know when. Bayer actually wasn't his real last name though, he changed it to Bayer when he got to America.
My sister was planning on making a family tree a few years ago, I'll have to email her and ask if she ever finished it.
My dad has a cousin named Elsi or Elsie. Married to a Ted Harrison. I don't know her maiden name, if she was a Bayer or not.
Thanks for commenting, always nice to hear from other Bayers!
German spelling was Baier. Family name is from Bavaria... "Bayern", "Bayeruth".
Great ancestor was Emperor Ludwig I.
Ludwig II (Ludwig the Mad) bankrupted kingdom building castle that still stands (and was model of Disney's Magic Kingdom castle).
I live in SW michigan just north of South Bend, publish a newspaper.
I have recently gotten interested in family history. Karl
