Great News!
 
Well as some of you may know my wife is pregnant with our first. She had her first ultrasound on tuesday, and we found out it's gonna be a little guy!

I know this may not seem like much, but I am psyched! Sorry I just had to tell people.:humpty:

Congrats! Becoming a father is the best feeling in the world. The only problem is that your time fishing will decrease and your time handling poopy diapers will increase. But, it's worth every minute of it. :cheers:

Life as you know it won't exist for much longer is right!

New milestones for you- no more bottles to boil, throwing away the Diaper Genie, recycling the last sippy cup!

CONGRATS- Nothing feels as great as being a father!

Good for you and the little lady. Enjoy and savor every moment they grow oh so fast. I still can't believe my little girl will be eight this year. Where has the time gone. Here's to a happy and healthy bouncing baby boy, and stock up on sleep while youcan:spin:

JohnyD congrats on the new little one. I just became a Grandfather for the first time last month. Put a rod holder on his new stroller I bought.

Now you need to make some plugs for his mobile, and don't forget to let mrstriper know when your son is born that counts as a birthday.
