    Alright guys and gals, wish us luck. Me and my lovely wife Stephie are getting ready for our first child, and it's due any day now. Sometime between a week and 16 days according to the docs here. So keep your fingers crossed and think happy thoughts:laugh:

    The one and only, El Brado:cool:

    Parenting is the most rewarding experience in life. Lots of learning curves, but well worth it :TU:

    Do you know if it's a boy or girl?

    Thanks for the good wishes guys, we appreciate it, I'll tell you I've got the jitters, I'm a bundle of nerves. We're down here in Kerrville, about an hour NW of San Antone. It's gonna be a little boy, Cadyn Stanley Davis. We just got 12 trash bags of clothes and about 700 diapers and about 6 bags of toys, and baby furniture galore, I've got stuff sitting in every room of the house. So we're ready, now it's just the waiting...:grin:

    Hey Shades, do this:

    Sit in your living room and read a car magazine.

    Then forget about ever having a peaceful moment to do it for the next 20 years!

    One kid is a cakewalk. God, 3 is a sheer test of wills.

    Very rewarding, but you MUST have a high boiling point. Kids will test you daily. Pick your battles.

    And congrats!:beer

    Darryl Roederer Life is good

    Yep, sounds like first time parents to me:laugh:

    We did the same thing.... Probably all first time parents do.

    Me and the wife must have spent $10,000 on ALL the baby stuff.... Fancy Crib, nursery, toys, etc.

    By the time our 5th came along, we were "expirenced",,, and sooo far beyond all the fancy baby stuff.

    I think the total investment on the last child was in the $300 range for the entire first year...

    1 used crib
    3 or 4 bags of used baby clothes
    5 packages of cloth diapers
    1 used car seat
    Breast-feeding supplies
    And a $10 stroller from Wally-mart

    That's it.... Really! No formula to buy because of breast-feeding, No diapers to buy, just bleach and laundry detergent... No kidding.

    Good luck:TU:
     
  14. ...you'll need more diapers... :laugh: :gt:
