As a smoker I am handing a fat cigar to anyone who wants to join me in this disgusting habit. Would that be a panatella or a cuban sir?

Sorry, there are no smoking smileys. Very PC.

Congrats Dad!
Is this your first?
now comes the hard part.. getting any sleep, toxic waste diaper changes, assorted projectile fluids at inopportune moments..
I wouldn't trade my son for anything, even those times.
Enjoy, time seems to fast forward from here on out.
Mine is 5 now and has started school.
Got pictures yet?

EDIT
doh.. teach me not to scroll to the botom to reply..
Cute kid.

Thanks for all your support. I'm over the moon, but also worried about the future

. You're not kidding Tankysgal1, I have the double barrel ready and waiting :-) . My job (or rather my employer) is very supportive and I have been off work from the moment I took my wife to hospital. The first moments with your new born child are really priceless, and I know that the fact that I'm there in the begining will be an important factor in her development. She hasn't cried once yet! Anyway, my hangover is now slowly subsiding

, but now comes the difficult bit: NO you don't want a barbiedoll, you really want this Jagdpanther late version with PE update set.
Cheers
Henk
