This morning my sister had a 9.5 pound, beautiful baby boy. I am soooo excited!

I have a new-found respect for anyone here with their own children. Just being in the room an hour after she had him, there was still a magical feeling in the air.

The Cohiba EL 2001 torp. that i was saving is gonna get toasted after dinner. I gifted her husband an 858 SGrown, and I hope he gets to enjoy it.


Just wanted to share my great day.
Happy Cinco de Mayo

Big boy to say the least. Doctors expected 7.5 to 8 pounds. I was gonna go get him some Snoopy golf clubs, but now it might be a football helmet and some pads.LOL! My sister also made it easy for Ol' Uncle Smelly to remember his B-Day....hehehehe, I am now in search of a baby sombrero. Cerveza's on the house!!!

Great idea with the Churchill-size....the Partagas Lusitania that RusselKaufmann sent me in our "TTT", and the Diamond Crown Maximus Double Corona that I got from DBGuru, will surely be toasted in his (Jonas Brimhall's) honor, at tomorrow's "Hensed comes to Seattle" herf.

Congrats Dave.....kids are the best!

9.5, that's a huge baby! If that kid keeps going at that pace, he'll be a line man!

i've got a great big cuban parejo that will be lit in his honor.

nice name, too. my sister had twins, a boy and a girl.

she named the girl "denice."

the boy?



"denephew!" ba dum dum



but seriously, mon congrats, "uncle smelly." may he bring joy to his family all the days of his life, and may any little siblings to come along truly be LITTLE siblings. that kid's HUGE! 🙂

Yo Uncle Smelly: Congrats !!! However be very careful, I was like you are now very happy to be an Uncle and then I blinked my eyes and became a Great Uncle and then blinked my eyes once more and now I'm a Great Great Uncle...time does fly. LOL JonR

Congratulations. Are you going to start saving some good cigars to give him when they're WELL aged?!

Congrats smellydave. My son was 7 lbs 6 oz and he's almost 5' 10" right now and weighs about 180 (at 15). That is a BIG BOY your sister just had, i'd go with the football gear!!!

worth sayin' twice, huh...

Congrats Dave,
On the other hand, I was 10 lbs 6 ounces, at birth, and was 5'7" and 120 lbs tops, my senior year of high school.
Is this your first nephew??? I have 4 nephews. Alot of fun. I get to watch them sometimes. I Love to pack them full of coca cola and chocolate and send them home to my sister. LOL
Have a great one. I'll fire up a RyJ EL 2001 Robusto, to help you celebrate.
Later

Congrats, Smelly. So when are you going to join the ranks of us dads?

just remember big babies does not automatically = big boys and vice versa. My oldest was 8' 11" at birth and is now 8 years old, 4' 9" and 105 lbs. He is too heavy to play football unless he goes up two years in age groups.

I have an Uncle that was over 10 lbs at birth and he is 5' 8" and about a buck twenty.

Sorry for the jack enjoy it bud and soon you'll have more.

8 feet 10 inches?!!! Wow! You're poor wife! How'd he shrink? Did you let him drink coffee at an early age or something?

He is my first nephew, and I am not sure how soon i want my own kids....so I will just spoil him rotten until then.

His dad's family is full of Judo Champions, and my family is a bunch of milk-drinkin country-folk....so I have a feeling he will be a thick kid.

Like Homebrew said.....I am gonna fill her kid with, candy, Slurpees, and all the good stuff. Wahoooooo!
