Congrats on a healthy baby boy!
Congrats! Now the adventure begins!
congrats dude!
my son turns 2 next month and there is nothing that will bring more joy to your heart.
also if you hate sleep, you're set now!
Personally I ascribe to the theory that the father needs to be there for the laying of the keel and off fighting a war during the launch.
You have more nerve then I being in the delivery room.
Congratulations.
Jim
Three cheers and a tiger.
Well done all hands.
BCR
Congrats on your first!
Mark

Ingwe
Congratulations on your new family member.
Times sure have changed since Les was born. They wouldn't let the future daddy (Greenhornet) anywhere near the delivery room, they would have banned momma from the room to if they could have figured out how to get the baby born without her
Glad you could be there for the birth of your son, you are in for a life changing experience, all for the best! Again Congratulations!
Congrats Marty----Way to hang in there!!!
Laine Charles Stanley Sether

LC Sether,sounds like a Quarterback to me
Yes!
What a pen name as well.
Very cool. Congrats to you and your wife.
But I gotta say I'm proud of the fact that I can't remember what changing a diaper is like. Glad things like that are passed on to the next generation. Good luck.
Congratulations Meghan & Marty !!

Congratulations Mom and Dad!
It doesn't take long to fall in love with little ones does it.
20 and 23 years ago for mine, I remember those days well.
Marty,
Again I am late to the party. What's wrong with the kid? He has no teeth. Tell Megan and Lane high for Sue and me.
Very cool.
But I gotta say I'm proud of the fact that I can't remember what changing a diaper is like.
I got so I could change a wet diaper in the dark,with one hand(surgery).Dirty ones needed a light,though.
Get ready for the best years of your life!!! Congrats....
No greater miracle than the gift of life. Congrats to you and your lovely lady.
