Congratulations. The next 20 years of your life will be some of the happiest (hopefully most of the time) and some of the most stressful. Take the time to play with him, to teach him manners, and to give him self-confidence.

Congrats To the Mrs. We know she did all the hard work. :-) oh okay, you too. :P
I am reminded of a statement by an unknown author, "Children: We spend the first two years of their lives teaching them to walk and talk, then the next 16 teaching them to sit and be quiet?"
Enjoy, these are going to be some enjoyable times for you.

Looking at the time you posted, I'm guessing you haven't had much sleep. Oh well, it's all worth it. Have a good day.

Thanks for the congrats guys! Been home with him since yesterday afternoon and he's doing well....not much sleep the first night but we'll survive. Here is a pic with an appropriately colored blanket my wife's 92 year old Grandmother made.....took her the yarn and she made us 3 of them for Rhys, and future kids.

Good on yah!
The first couple months are a little stressful. Especially with the first one! Make sure you spell Momma out at feeding at 2am sometimes or she will be cranky!
After the first month or two, they will start sleeping up to 6 hours at a stretch at night and you will be grateful for it!
They are a lot of fun and it will be worth it.

Congrats Benny and Mrs Benny, since you are first timers,you will not believe how fast that they grow/change. I always wanted to keep a diary on them,they go though changes so quick,you forget the "small stuff". Best of Luck.
