Look at all that hair! Babys are supposed to be basically bold! Oh man, I can see the ladies drooling already...
Thanks! Looks like we both had a great weekend.....first the baby, then Kimi. Does life get any better?

Sleep? What's that? As Sam says on the NBC show Las Vegas....."I can sleep when I am dead"

Congrats!
They also fail to tell you that all the techniques they teach you and the excercies your wife should do to "control" the pain don't work or get remembered!!!!

We are also having the 2 or 3 debate.

Go Cowboys! (noticed the star on your shirt)
Thanks! I was the 18th.....November is a great month for Birthdays!!!!!!

Cowboys are on a roll. Maybe a rematch with the Pats in the Super Bowl with a better result???

My favorite moment from the first is when you get home from the hospital with the baby and look at your wife and say "now what do we do"
After all the rushing around and this and that you get home get the stuff and bundle in the house and settle down. That's when it sinks in. This little person is not just visiting and he is not going home in a day or two.

Rules are two kid min. They need to have someone to fight about toys with with.

Not much.

But trust me, life will suck too and you some times feel miserable with the kid but in the end, it's million times worth it.

You are at the beginning of experiencing something you have never ever experienced before and something that can not be experienced unless you have what you have just been given.

"Your life will never be the same"
I heard that a million times and got sick of it! But quess what? All those people were right! And I can tell you, it ain't alway easy!! There was many times that 1st 6 weeks I dreamed up sneaking off and moving to Florida or something. But I can also tell you this, I just don't think life's complete without a child. My son's going on 12 and I wouldn't change this experience for anything in the world. I don't think there's a love more special that a parent and a child.
BEST OF LUCK!!

I am sure you parents have already done this but do you just sit there and stare at him for hours and think to yourself "I wonder what he is thinking?"

I finally understand what is so great about joining this fraternity. Most here know how flipping addicted I am to the track and my car. I go any chance I can get and instruct as well to see others fall in love with the sport but..........now I can't understand why, but the thought of the track versus just hanging with the little one doesn't even cross my mind. My wife has already given the ok to go back to the track. I'm going to wait until SHE feels comfortable coming with me and bringing my boy with us so I can spend time with him during run sessions

Gotta run........going to go stare at him some more!
