Congrats!

Congrats to you and Mrs. Old One!


Coincidentally, Alexander is my favorite name for boys. Great minds and all, I guess...

Bleary-eyed thanks...

Greetings All!

Man, I haven't been this tired since I was in the military !

Thanks for everyone's kind thoughts and comments...I am quickly becoming an expert diaper changer and am quite happy that newborn poop doesn't smell (that comes later). We came home from the hospital in the major snowstorm that just socked the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast US. There was 9" on the ground when we left the hospital and we ended up getting ~ 28" total.

I will post a picture or 2 as soon as I have the strength to download from the camera...

Later!

~ Old One

Can't wait to see the pictures of "Young One"

Glad you were able to make it safely back home in the "Blizzard of 2003"

The Beginnings of the Blizzard...

This was about 1/4 of the way into the snowfall...about 7-8" down at this point.

Nice pics, Old One. I like the new beard and moustache.

I don't give out a lot of unsolicited fatherly advice except for this bit: You are tired and you will be tired for a LONG time to come. Do whatever you must do to stay sane for the first two months. After that, you'll still be tired all the time, but Alex will also start smiling and that will make it all worthwhile.

Good luck and keep us posted.

Real nice pics, Old One, but that beard... ugly. Really ugly. (I have exactly the same moustache and beard... Just longer hair. Ah well, and I'm more handsome. IMHO. )

Well, rather youthful with goatee and good looks, you're now officially WotC artwise compliant.

Dito to Rel too about the snowstorm. Didn't really know it was sooo bad though on all boards posts about it cropped up...

Ahh, this will cost me dearly, but you two do not have the same beard and Darklone isn't really any more handsome...but he is right in the aspect, that both of you look REALLY tired

Anyways, have a nice week, all of you - and maybe one of you will play some running gnome for me... i am to be off to some customers the next couple of weeks and i don't think i will get to playing in the next time...

Wow, too much work and no roleplaying...i will go nutz!!
Who said that? No, Darklone, i am not already...no!
