My Son

My wife gave birth to our second son on Thursday morning.

Pictures (first set is the birth, second set is an older set of my older son, Garrett):

And the story, for those interested. It's long, and I'm only writing it once, if possible:

Short version, for those not into following links: he looks like most newborns (cute to us, though), and everyone is fine.

Congrats. Your son and wife are both beautiful.

Congrats on the baby takyris. I enjoyed reading your story and I laughed out loud at a couple of points. My wife is due to give birth in mid-September with our first child so some of those laughs were sort of, "heh that's funny....holy crap what if that happens to me?" moments.

I'm glad both mother and baby are doing well.

Thanks, guys.

Olaf, are you doing a home birth as well? I have no idea how common that is in Australia. Regardless, good luck, and remember to project calm reassurance, even if you're lying through your teeth as you do it!

Sweet! Now that's out of the way, there's no reason keeping you from coming to GenCon, right?
