Much congrats! Cherish every moment, they grow fast! Mine was born two years ago and he's already 16 years old!

All the best and congrats to you both, Buxom.

My wife and I have been happily married for 44 years without kids. Just didn't happen ... so enjoy your blessing to the fullest.

And remember - The best gift you can give is yourselves. From what I've read here, you've already started with the presentation.

Congratulations!

It doesn't seem that it was that long ago when I was always running
out for pampers and baby supplies, well...maybe it does. :D

Best wishes to you and your family.

She's 8 weeks now. I'm honestly happy that she's giving the baby my last name. I'm still thinking about that.

My job sells merchandise, and my manager, friend, and honestly, mentor has given me 2 onsies in tie dye. One in green and one in pink.

I also think I may do construction. I miss being a laborer, tbh. I've maintained my weight since quitting my job at the nursery, but want to get to 180 from 231 before August.

Congratulations! ... And I would also like to lighten things up in saying that -- as a Dad of three kids -- I think the first one is actually the easiest. One kid is really not that hard. But each one you add after that makes it an order of magnitude more difficult (not just 2x or 3x) ... That is my experience, anyway ...

Congratulations James !!

You're gonna need it !!

Suggest you disappear from the Forum in favor of makin' some Do Re Me for the time being... You're gonna need it !!!

Report back in 18 years... that'll be the true test of whether you've met the challenge !!

It's NOT all about you any more...

It's about the Baby you've conceived...

Conceiving is the easy part... raising and educating them is what counts !!

Man Up (sell-off 90% of your gear) and do it !!

Cheers!

Hello Floyd, good to see your post and thanks for updating us. James presence is missed, just as many of our youngest members, living takes up all of their time too lol. Happy when they visit :D
How did James get the Telecaster in that photo ? :lol: 8)

Welcome to the club. Your life will never be the same and this is a good thing.
