JohnBarton Report post Posted February 18, 2009 Ok so it's two days later but I am wiped out. At 8:37pm Monday, Xiamen China time my brave brave strong and lovely wife delivered a beautiful baby girl. Her name is Jessie and she is our first child. I can only say that this is the happiest moment of my life and that this precious child is a miracle. I am so humbled by nature right now that it's hard to express it. And the other thing is that I would have cried worse than a baby and demanded drugs for the pain and my wife did it all naturally. Here are a few pictures. The rest are at Jessie's album on JB Cases here - http://www.jbcases.com/gallery/main.php?g2...navId=xa62cd3d2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyingcuda Report post Posted February 19, 2009 to the wonderful world of parenthood, where you get to pull off many all-nighters without the alcohol,and loud music..but will still include the puking and crying! a lot of the crying part will be sometimes the babe...sometimes you. you get to have your heart singing,crying, laughing all at the same time. a word of advice...watching my hubby go through it many times...if you have chest hair...make sure you cover up!!!! even if you think you are covered up....cover up again! enjoy your new small bundle of wonder and joy. do i smell new personalized babe mocs? flyingcuda Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
