My niece would do the same thing. Kids, who knew?

Thankyou! The baby was born 2 weeks ago today, 2 weeks early (Today was the "due date") and he was 5lbs, 11oz. He had his bris on time and we named him Yaakov Yosef. His second name, Yosef, is after my grandpa Joe, and I've been alternating sometimes calling him Yaakov and sometimes calling him Joe.

He's cute. We like him.

That's good because the return policy on those things is draconian, and I didn't even get a receipt.

Siglet #2 is due 21 October. We should probably start planning for that.

My little baby is starting kindergarten tomorrow. :(

I'm going to put her on the bus in the morning, and she's going to come home with a college diploma in one hand and a wedding ring on the other.

You might find some other things happen between those two points in time.

Well, it was only a couple of days ago that she was a newborn and I was changing her diapers and rocking her to sleep. At this rate she'll be "too cool to be bothered with Dad" by mid afternoon, finished with school by dinnertime, and married by mid week.

You're starting to sound like Monkey Dusts's Timmy Visits Daddy bit.

Hyperbole is my specialty.

My son is the best part of taking a day off. I stayed up until midnight last night goofing off on the computer, and woke up this morning to Ian patting me gently on the head. I turned my head. "Hi, Daddy!" That's so much better than my alarm clock.

He just spent half an hour sitting in my lap watching Russian music videos on YouTube, nodding his head and tapping on the desk and just generally rocking out. I finally found someone else who likes Lumen.

That's a totally cool way to wake up. This morning I ended up with two children on my bed.

How nice of you to remember me on my b-day, Sig! ;)

Oh yeah, and mazel tov, Shazam! :)

Ah, well, now they're telling us they're going to induce if he doesn't show before the 14th (which is my older brother's birthday). For me, I would just like him to stay until about two days after our "one weekend a month" so I can get all of the pay and stupidity caught up with. No one takes over when I'm not there, so October is going to be an interesting month because I intend to take the 10 days of paternity leave that Congress has seen fit to authorize me.

Wow, I've missed a lot, I guess. That'll teach me to take an 80 hr/wk job...

Mazel Tov, Shazaam!

And Sig, I don't believe we've met, but congrats to you, too!

Wow Sig, great news. Wishing you guys an easy and safe birth and friendly nurses at the hospital!

Hey guys, I have a baby. I know it sounds crazy, but I don't think I'm hallucinating. This is SO cool. There's this little person named Joe asleep on my chest even as I type this.

I think I'm in love.

What's the baby called?
