Congrats.

Be careful, the years do go by fast. Don't waste any minute of them. You never get them back.

Re: Life's new Meaning

You think it won't change but it will. I've got a 13. a 6, and a 6 month old, all girls. Life has meaning like you would never believe now. Kids are a ton of work and heart ache, lots of pure happiness and some dissapointment. You wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. My wife works 11a-11p so I am with my kids almost nonstop. You'' find out just how much you ARE like your parents. Congrats on the new phase of life.

Congrats Skiuseme, beautiful little boy. Your life will change dramatically, only for the better. My wife and I always ask ourselves what we used to do before we had kids.
Now, we were the kind of parents that didn't slow down after kids. We kept doing the things we always did, except our little ones were in tow. Your thinking just changes. All of a sudden, when your fishing, its not really important that you catch any fish, its only important that your little ones catch a fish. A million small things like that. Only thing we regret is not having more when we could.

Hope mommy is recovering well.

Enjoy your little one. Another angel sent from heaven, thats for sure.:)

I wouldn't usually comment on new babies, but this one is too cute not too.

Congrats

Parenthood is lifes greatest challenge and lifes greatest joy.

Couldn't have said it better myself, except to add I've found it to be much more joy than challenge (so far-- let's see what the teenage years bring ;)).

Congrats!!

The challenges seem to become harder right around the time puberty comes into play.:eek:
My wife and I have raised ours and they are long gone. We have custody of one of the grandchildren - had him since day one.
We agreed that when puberty rolls around (again!), we are going to nail his bedroom door shut and cut a hole in the bottom to slide food in.:D:D:D

My Wife and I have had our first baby and we are sure glad he is here. After 21 hours of Labor and 1 night in the NICU he is home and ready for the world.

Here he is
