My daughter was born at 9:05am Tuesday morning. She's a skinny little thing, 7 pounds 5 ounces, with a shock of black hair, her father's chin, her mother's eyes, and a fetish for sucking on fingertips that neither of us recognize in ourselves.
I'll post pictures when I have them up somewhere ... meanwhile, Foxy and I are trying to catch as much sleep as possible, which is precious little sleep at all. But it is so, so worth it ...
I'm so happy for you and Foxy. You must be running on fumes from lack of sleep. The last few days must have been pretty hectic for you guys. I can't even imagine how powerful a feeling it must be at the birth of your first child!
I just got your email - thanks! I'll be getting back to you.
Take good care of that baby, Pops! And celebrate with a good cigar!

I hope she brings you as much joy as my daughters have to me. Your life will never be the same, especially when you get older and really appreciate what she will bring to your life. Congratulations to you and your wife. Little girls will always have a special meaning for you when she grows up and leaves home. Enjoy.
