Just wait... it wont be the most undescribable time for long.

I've had two kids now (note the post from yesterday on how she was just born... yesterday) and I can promise you that there have only been two times in my life when I cried out of joy. And they were both at the first sounds of my children crying after being born!

THAT is truely the most remarkable, the most AWESOME time in your life, right there, when you can see, and hear, and soon touch, a life that didn't exist before, but does now, all because of you and God!

Congradulations, make sure to love him/her as much as you can!

Well it wasn't so joyful when they each lied to me for the first time. I have gotten used to it though.

I have found that the principals of poker "tells" apply remarkably well to children when you are asking who did something. When my son answers "I didn't do it, I know I didn't", he is definitely guilty.

Oops... that's OT. I am the master of topic destruction.

Re: Just found out I'm gonna be a dad!!!

As everyone has already said it is one of those events in life that simply has no parallel. Utterly wonderful.

Get as much sleep now, while you can! No, scratch that...get some gaming in while you still can! Don't sleep!

And if they'll let you, be there for the birth and cut the cord as well!*

Congratulations!







*surprisingly crunchy...

Re: Just found out I'm gonna be a dad!!!

Thanks everyone! So much! I don't believe I've ever seen an out-pouring from one forum on one topic before. Thanks!

-NorcalRoach, funny you say your sons bday is the 15th. That is the exact date we hear the first heartbeat!!

It still really hasn't FULLY hit me yet. Nor my wife. She can DEFINITELY tell something is different though. I can only imagine......lol!

We went to Babies - r - us and looked around the other day. Dang, if only I had toys like that when I was young!! LOL! I may have to go back and buy ME something. HAHA! Then again, I figured out that our child will be still 2 yrs old at their 3rd Christmas. I say boxes, a wooden spoon, and the wrapping paper will make great gifts til then! LOL! I think I still have pictures of myself and my cardboard box!

I will keep all of you updated on news as the baby grows. Might as well be a TG baby from the beginning! Get it off on the right foot and all.... LOL! You all are now officially Aunts and Uncles! LOL!

GOD is great!

Re: Just found out I'm gonna be a dad!!!

Hi, Ranger, we have not met, but I congratulate you and your wife. I have four children and the excitement was there for each child---but the first was so very special. The joys that await you are immeasurable.

Grats, Ranger. Live it up for us childless-until-financially-stable. (whatever that means!)
