   YO!  DADDY!

   Congratulations!

   Ugly litle sucker, aint he?

   Don't worry, they all look like that when they're new, he'll grow out of it in a day or two, then he'll be as beutiful as she is.

   Fer a while.

   Then he'll just be handsome.

   That's gotta be an actress instead of your wife. Looks too well put together for having just given birth. :)

   Congratulations!

   My 1½ yr old was sitting on my lap when I opened the pictures, he was very excited and saying "baybee...baybee"!

   Congratulations.

   Man, babies are really something.

   Life just doesn't get any better 'n that...

   Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up like every two hours and wet the bed?

    Congrats to you both..

    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming

    WOW!!!   What a Ride!

   Mike- BTW, being a true Minnesotan, I'm kinda partial to Grain Belt Premium (bottles, of course).  Otherwise, Leinies Honey Weiss is pretty good too. :)

   Looks like you're next, Best of luck to ya!

   Congratulations Brother. My first thought when I saw you son was Man I hope he like Linnes Honey Wiess so then I can have some of my own payoff. LOL. But then again at the rate our baby is coming (9 days late) I might never get out of the cities.

   I have a cousin named Caleb -he's a brat---J/K No really he's a great kid. Love the name .

   Truely know that you are blessed with a son. Are your other two girls? I Hope to post soon with ours and then I can gladly pay my debts. Peace Mike

   Wow, thanks for all the well wishes.  I'm sure my wife will appreciate the compliments as well.  Might offset the fact I posted a pic of her five minutes after giving birth on the web.  You can bet I'm enjoying every minute of this.  Kids are truly the greatest gift.  I love just holding them, watching every little facial expression, every little move they make. 

   Watching a kid being born, man what a rush.  I consider my self to be about as much of a manly man as the next guy.  Can't remember the last time I cried, maybe when my dogs died when I was about 12 or so.  But seeing that slimy little critter moving his ten fingers & toes after they laid him on her belly kinda put a lump in my throat.  When he started crying on his own a few seconds later, I could even feel my eyes getting a little misty.  Seems like I got a bit that way with the other two also.   Had a lot of fun at the hospital too- I used to be a paramedic based out of this hospital, so we've known the nurses and doc for a long time. 

   Please forgive my rambling on here, I don't usually get deep on internet forums, must be due to running on two hours of sleep since Tuesday morning. :)

   Anyways, I'm gonna go check on them early in the morning again, work till noon or so, then hopefully bring them home and let the games begin!

   Thanks again,

   Mike
