I'm a Daddy!

Things went smoothly ... for me at least. Checked in early for an induced labor, epidural cut down the pushing and pain to an hour or two ... horrifying emergence that has scarred me for life ... and all fingers and toes intact.

Once the shock wore off, and I had a few quiet moments with my son, it was truly wonderful. This little guy is so helpless, it's mind boggling. Humans are pitiful little wretches for apparently the first year or so.

Cute as a button. Maybe I'll post some photos later. They say he looks like me. That's a mixed bag, fo' sure.
