I just had a baby!

[BRussell]

Yesterday afternoon. Well, not me, my wife. I just kind of stood by and watched in horror. No actually things went very well and relatively easy. Drugs are good.

Baby pictures to come.

You are one of the few people who I do not disapprove of spreading his seed. Congratulations.

Oh by the way, congrats BRussell.

[torifile]

Congrats, BRussell. Send her on over my way if you need any intelligence tests given. :D I'm sure she's going to be a smart one. :)

[pfflam]

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!



Its amazing to have a chid . . . Get ready for emotions you didn't know you could have,
oh yeah, and it gets more amazing everyday, not just the first few days.

Is it a boy or a girl?

and its also harder than you can imagine to.
Be prepared . . .

I try to cope by becoming BUDDHA . . . . . Buddhahood helps.

[hegor]

Congradulations!

I have a four month old boy and all I can say is enjoy. They really really do grow fast. Mine smiles and laughs and is working on his rolling skills. It really is a blast to watch them progress.

[Powerdoc]

Congratulations, my best wishes for you and your family.

[Hassan i Sabbah]

Yay!

The BRussel Sprout's here!

Congratulations. Give your wife / long-term partner a kiss for me and a little 'un for the little 'un. And one for you too. I expect this'll be the last time you're round these parts for a while. You've just a life thrust on you, whether you like it or not!

[Hassan i Sabbah]

If it's a boy, consider 'Hassan'.

If it's a girl, 'Hassan' is nice too.

[cycle]

congrats to your wife and then you

absolutely great...

have fun with the baby 8)

[Moogs]

Middle name should be Moogs ... definitely. :D

Hassan Moogs Russell. Perfect. :lol:

Seriously though, best wishes for the three of you. That is great news during times when great news is in short supply around here. Hell even the NHL playoffs have been full of bad news so far. Dallas won a game (man was that ugly last night, kind of funny though), St. Louis and Minnesota beat Vancouver and Colorado in games 1... I tell ya it never ends, so thanks for the uplifting stuff!

Baby pictures to come.

I know what YOU TWO have been doing!

[BRussell]

Thanks folks. Here are some pics. It was a baby girl, 5 pounds 14 oz, 19" long. So tiny I can't believe it.

My goal is to have her sleeping through the night by Monday.

First of all---Congratulations!

Mother of four, I'll suspend the stream of advice ready to flow.:lol: However, I have to laugh at the "sleeping through they night by Monday." Good luck, but she'll need a few more pounds before she does that. I only had one that would sleep through the night before a year, and he was a whopping 9 lbs 3 oz (I did a lot of whooping during the birth :wow: ).

Definitely ENJOY. They grow so fast. And once they start talking, there is no going back.:p

[Chinney]

Wonderful. Congratulations. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.

[MGG]

Sweet! Congratulations BRussell.

I was just joking about sleeping through the night. Although actually she seems to sleep through the entire day and night at this point. I think she's awake for maybe 2 hours out of the whole day. She wakes up, my wife feeds her, she falls back to sleep while dining, and then she wakes up an hour or two later hungry again, my wife feeds her...

And this whole "sleep on the back" thing just isn't real conducive to babies sleeping, is it?
