RC51 is right, and then they hit their teens. ilovefishingmark had one a few years back, left the forum and never came back. I lost ability to communicate with him after a computer crash but think about him often. Google "James Leininger" - one of those would be fun. Thank God for dedicated and competent physicians, and then thank the physicians.

We can't expect CJ to say to his wife...."Hun, I'll be back in an hour. I have to make a post on Pond Boss."
Wrong way to start the whole parenting thing.
BUT....Where's the baby!!!!

He's probably out busting some drug runner, which is probably less stressful than being in the delivery room.

Well, we hit some rough spots along the way and the doctor finally decided a C-section would be the best option... So just before midnight last night, Miss Caroline Marie came into the world at 6 pounds even and 19.5" in length. She is the cutest baby ever, I guess maybe I am biased though. So far, she's healthy and happy so we're feeling very fortunate! Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers... On the scale One happy daddy! My wife and Caroline My father and I and Caroline

Tell your wife I said, "What took you so long?" Just kidding of course. Congrats Travis! Looks like not only a child will be loved but a loving family. Nice to see!

Congratulations! I remember those days very well. It hit me the most when we were leaving the hospital after the birth of our first one. We arrived at 2 a.m. as a couple, the same way it had been for years, and we left 36 hours later as a family. I'll never forget buckling that car seat in for the first time.
Enjoy each other!

Congratulations to all Travis.
TJ, I like that.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Congratulations Travis! And give your wife my congratulations too. Lets see, you'll have little sleep in the next 6 months, then again in about 16 years. Better rest up in the meantime! I can't believe that you don't have a picture of her on top of a yardstick to check her length.

Yes, life is good, very good!! Start saving for her first Corvette, college, and various helping hand(s) she will need along the way. If you are very lucky she will avoid dating until after she has her doctorate. When you consider that at some point you could have a young TJ or Sunil as a son-in-law..... I guess this is a little early to be talking about that. Congratulations!!
