It'll be a Christmas baby!! Poor kid will get its birthday and Christmas lumped in one I fear. Better start saving for some extra ammo!!

[BNE]

Nice! Praise God for good little Christmas gifts.

As an old friend told me , you won't leave the house empty handed for the next 18 years. Congratulations.

Babies are a blessing, congrats redleg! The greatest joy in my life is watching my son become a fine young man.

[Hamish]

Hurray!! Nothing like it in the world!

I just found out the gender of our baby boy Friday. Congratulations! Our children will be contemporaries. Mine is due at the end of September.

[pretzelxx]

I'm hoping for a boy, so is the wife. Well have to wait and see! But either way, its a helping hand after a few years!!
Congratulations to you dilly!!

Congrats!! Our first daughter is 6 months and counting, I'm amazed already at how quick they change!

[Bad Water Bill]

My dad was born on Dec 6 1910 so for many years I heard of how Dec kids got shorted on presents.

Both of my kids decided to join us after Christmas so we had Christmas presents and just a few birthday presents BUT we did have DELAYED birthdays in June And they were glad to get a fresh supply of toys and games all over again.

No they never complained.;)

Congratulations on your new shooting buddy.:drinks:

Great news. Becoming a parent sure changes your priorities and perspective of life. In a good way too.

[Silfield]

Congratulations to you and your wife-lots of happy (and tiring!) days ahead:drinks:
I have just become a father again at the age of 47-rather unexpected but the little fella has brought so much joy to our lives. Going by the grip that he has it isnt going to be long before I can get him helping me with all my case prep!

[DLCTEX]

Congratulations! I am looking forward to a new grandchild in November compliments of member black rifle shooter. The second "impossible" occurrence for he and his wife.

Just thought since we were posting ultrasounds, I'd show off mine.

I know it's crazy and they basically all look the same, but I guess I'm just excited.

Congrats to both of you. I have one that is due early September. Can't wait. Ill have 5 kids total.

Boys aged T minus 4 months, 7 months (1 year old on sept 21), 4 years and 7 years old. My daughter is 7 years old. Blended family and my 2 oldest boys are with my ex. Daughter is not mine by blood but by marriage, rearing and duties. I love her and treat her as mine and wouldnt want it any other way. (Her father died tragically when she was a baby).

I dont know about yall, but my father passed down to me an original 1886 in 45-90 and was working on having each child a Miroku/Browning 1886 in 45/70 to be passed down to them. I will continue that when funds improve. I think it is important to start and continue family traditions and that is one of them.

He built my brother a beautiful Browning 1886 rifle that has AAA Fancy Walnut shotgun stock from Macon stocks and had the receiver CCH by Turnbull. It has the dual flip front sights and I think an elevator style flip rear. Its really a trick set up and is a tack driver and fun to shoot at long range steels.

[MrWolf]

Congratulations! Kids are the greatest - my oldest just graduated Rutgers Thursday night. My son us two years behind her. Time goes quick, treasure every moment - even the lousier ones can be treasured latter on.

[RED333]

Congrats to all!!

Sincere congratulations! My six year old grand daughter was born on Dec 27 so presents at Birthday are a problem. Just last week we had a belated Birthday party at the pool on the large camp her father works for, got lots of swimming, bounced on the big inflatable pillow and then ate everything in sight. She only invites "girls" now, but that suits Papa fine. Have one grand daughter old enough to date and that is scary enough even though she has a good head on her shoulders.

[Blammer]

congratulations!

Hug those children,make sure they know you love them,and raise them right for they will be gone before you realize,and their children will be grown and gone in a flash! Do things with them that they enjoy,create memories and you will always have something to talk about, a good memory is always a good ice breaker when reconnecting.lreed
