it's a girl!




Our first born arrived this morning. She was a lot of work. Both the baby and her mom are fine. They came out victorious after about 30 combined hours of latent phase (hurt) and contractions during active stage of labor (hurt like hell). The mother is an exhausted soldier. I was there every painful minute to witness the miracle of life.

Congratulations to my wife and myself.
Yes, I'm a dad!

Wow Todd, congratulations! Our first born was around the same amount of labor as well.

Thanks. We were both very tired. Well I can't really compare. I'm just glad I'm not a woman.
