Christmas came early!

Well as a few of you knew, my wife was pregnant this spring and Fri, Dec 5, 2008 at 10:01...My little fishing buddy was new to the world, he was 21 inches long and 8.5 lbs. This dad thing is awesome, I don't even mind changing diapers!

Congrats man! Fatherhood is simply amazing.

I am next. My second is due Christmas day!

To paraphrase the comic Bill Cosby: "I don't know when it happened, but somehow, somebody add smell to the baby poo!"

Or picture the scene from "Mr. Mom" when the baby crawls up in his walker, eating the remains from a can of chili. Then picture EVERYONE making a mad dash for the exits.

Joy.......fatherhood rules!

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Congrats, Dad!

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
