Congratulations Derek, my wife always wanted a daughter, it took us three tries:D

[cow pollinater]

Well Derek,
I saw your post about ten minutes ago and it has taken me three tries to get back into my office to say congradulations and I'm looking at things on the computer because it's to loud in here to hear the tv. With my schedule bedtime should be in half an hour and I already know it ain't happenin... A rainy day cooped up in the house was the last thing my kids needed.
Are you sure you know what you're getting into?

[cow pollinater]

And also, do yourself a big favor and do something special for your wife and tell her how much you love HER.

[Hambone]

Thank You Everyone!!


Sundance;386834]Were you there for the delivery??? All I could babble was........ Wow........

Yes, it was a planned c-sec. So I got to see all the good stuff. I have really good pics of the surgery too. The best part was there was 2 high school kids there watching and getting college credit. The girl did great. The guy.... Well after they pulled Madison out and they were doing their dirty work clean up. I looked at the guy and said. "Man this make me hungry for a good greasy breakfast. How about you buddy." I turned around and he was gone. Just walked out. I never saw him again.


Bizzybee;386852]Whewwww Thank God she looks like her mother!!!!!!

Why does everyone keep saying that. :scratch: :D



Congrats Derek!!! You be sure mom gets some of that luvin too!

Already did that...duh.....:D


Congratulations Derek, my wife always wanted a daughter, it took us three tries:D

Maybe 3rd times a charm for me too... We will just have to wait and see.

[Gregory and Susan Fariss]

congrates Derek. Special people get special kids and she sure looks to be a special looking bundle of joy. A truly nice looking curtain climber, Bee box painter, honey house helper you got there.:applause: If she ends up with her daddy's sense of humor you going to have your hands full in a few years.:doh::D

[Hambone]

Thanks Rat.


If she ends up with her daddy's sense of humor you going to have your hands full in a few years

I got that covered. Here is my 3 year old. I don't know what she is so upset about. She gets out in 15 short years.
