AND? Is it time to break out the cigars?

..... topped .....

i'm with deb. c'mon bill, whats the news?

We are still waiting! Hello? Is this thing on?

Sorry! I just saw this.

Rachel Marie was born at 1135, 01 September. She was 8 lbs, 10 oz and 22 1/2" long. By day she is a wonderful sweetheart who sleeps, coos, and smiles. At night she is transformed into a hideous monster whose constant screams ensure we get no sleep. Overall, though, we're very happy.

I haven't had a cigar in 2 weeks. I hope to break out the Esplendidos soon...

Bill

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Welcome to Hell....oops I meant our world. Life as you know it no longer exists. You have no free time, all available energy, time, and money will be devoured by a pint sized diaper wearer.

Tank always said that kids are the best/worst thing that could happen to you.

In all seriousness, please accept our congratulations and best wishes and give Rieko and Rachel our best.

Deb

btw, I would like to point out that Blacky posted about 1 hour after Rachel's arrival. Kinda freaky don't ya think?

Thanks Tank. It's now 0200 on a work night and all she wants to do is fuss. Little monster. Good thing I'm on leave.

i mistakenly posted this to mrs tank

try adding a little rice water to the feedings.

Rachel Marie is a big girl and needs more nourishment. ask your doctor first.

this is what my mopther suggested because both of my children were over 8 pounds and my mother said they were crying because they were hungry, the formula wasn't enough.

CONGRATS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

such great news, all best wishes for the 3 of you.

Congrats won't be gettin any sleep for awhile now.

Woohoo! She actually slept through the night last night!

Wrapped her tightly, put on some Gregorian chant, and left the closet light on. Hopefully it's a winning formula.
