The stork has landed!! :: Warning: This thread may seem like a bunch of blah blah's for the younger audience or to those who don't care about baby stuff. It's cool man, I hate the Lifetime channel too. WelcomeTFW 's new member, Lillian Lee Loebig or just "Lilly" 6.5lbs , so tiny. (We wanted to name her after all the sweet grandmas that lived in the past who rocked the 1800 & 1900's with love and especially the ones who bought us TF's when she took us to Woolworths. ) We're not married (been together for 6yrs) so we decided to keep Jess's middle name and my last name (damn straight ) Just when you think your almost invincible , this will yank your emotions and strength right out. Wanted to cry, but when the first tear came out I was struck with excitement and curiosity. Best word to summarize a womans birth is 'Amazing'. I never wanted to actually watch the birth, was all ew and stuff, but as soon as I saw the very tip of the baby's head, every fear I had instantly vanished and I could'nt take my eyes off her. I instantly had an overwhelming feeling of love for her and was too concerned about her survival into the world to even care about the mess around her. Every broken piece in my mind and heart was fixed. Ahhh, the feeling of instant revolution. Too be honest , I like kids but never liked baby's too much. Thought they looked like little ufo's or something and never really knew what to do around them. They're so fragile. And the screaming, aagh!! Well, all that is gone now. Now I know words like "booey booey boo" and "whasssrong?" , and "maykapoopieface". And tricky ones like "oogieboogaboonamu". It's too hard trying to explain the feeling you get when you see the smallest part of your little creation after it's been hiding behind that belly button for so long, so I won't. It just :rawks!! It feels amazing to be a father. My respect bar for this place just went through the roof since there has always been great fathers here at TFW and to experience what you guys went through makes me want to cry and hug you. Or just shake your hand and point at you all cheesylike like that BK guy. Hats off you you guys and cheers! Huge salute with the finest of brews. It's an overwhelming feeling yes, but easily dominated by the new manhood. Time to start rooting for some new Arcee molds She needs a pink Alt in her room Hasbro dambit! The plan- Going to tell her that a Barbie doll is the only toy there is, then after a week or so she'll frikn hate Barbie. Rebel Rebel!! Hopefully she'll be like "Screw them man, Im asking Grandma for a Megatron!" j/k (o rly) Oh ya, pics Thanks to anyone who actually read all that. Babypoop yay!
That was, by far, one of the best posts I've read around here in a while. Congratulations man. Make us proud.
I said it in the hauls and I say it again, Congrats man. Being a father is one of the best feelings. And take it from me, you won't have to worry about what toys she likes, both of my little girls love Transformers and have their own Lightsabers. Little girls want to be just like daddy. You will have a lot of fun.
*reads entire post* Congratulations! Rock on! She's adorable, and there's even a small smile in one of the pics. Baby poop is cute now, but when the smell starts...HIT THE DECK!
Not just the poop, wait till the cord starts to rot right before it falls off, now that is a foul odor. Did, you cry when the head came out? I cried, she was such a beutiful sight. Man hugs and cigars to you and all the other dads.
Congratulations!!!! I do not have kids (and probably never will). I only have a Niece and a Nephew, and I can kind of understand that feeling. I wish you the best with your little girl.
Man I still have flashbacks about this one time in TRU...my son exploded, yes exploded! so bad it went through the diaper and up the back of his shirt! Julie had to buy a new outfit while I had to take care of the little biohazard Seriously CM, Congrats just don't seem like enough in this case, welcome to fatherhood It's a hell of a ride
