Charles,

My best to you and your now expanded family. This is truly a great day in any father's life. Just make sure you don't buy Leo a hammer that is heavier than he is. ;)

Congratulations
to both you and your wife.
May he have good health, happiness, and prosperity throughout his life.
Make sure that he is genetically tested.
My daughter is a genetic counselor at Pediatrix Screening in Bridgeville and demands that I insert this commercial message, shamlessly.

Congratulations on your new shop buddy. We had two boys before our girl so we're opposite your situation. I think my daughter (almost 6) is going to be the only one interested in woodworking. She is always wanting to build something with dad.

That's a big baby boy too. Ours were 6 lb (6 weeks premature), 10 lb 8 oz, and 10 lb 11 oz. Needless to say that was our last. LOML scheduled the Big V for me without even asking ;) At least she did agree to have it done by a professional :D

Hi all,

Thank you for the kind words. I added the pic to the original post to get the paper clip icon and,

CORRECTION: 9 pounds 8 ounces, I must of added a pound in my tired typing.

Megan is doing great and they will be home tomorrow.

Hi Daniel all the needed testing is being done. Meg insited on delivering at Mercy because they have a NICU (neonatal intensive care unit if you want to add it to the accronym list.) She still works part-time over at Mercy Providence.

Good night it is time dad gets some sleep.

Congratulations! Nothing brings your life into perspective than children. Just yesterday I was holding my son like that. It seems like yesterday but it was really 25 years ago. Enjoy!
