Governator Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 wow awesome awesome. I hope you're enjoying every minute of it. I'll be making the same post this summer, wife is over 6 months in.
douG Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 I firmly believe that new life is a joy to all of us. As for advice, JohnF accurately described the situation 15 or twenty years from now. This is the time to get your hooks in, while your kid still thinks you are the man. You want to be a part of his new experiences; read to him everyday, starting now. Have baths together, feed him and change him. And listen. Congratulations to you and your wife.
ricoboxing Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 congratulations! for the next few years you just cut your # of fishing days in half
Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 congratulations! for the next few years you just cut your # of fishing days in half probably more than half! in 2007 i spent about 70-80 days on the water... i'm guessing that's going go to go down a lot! BUT, when he's old enough to come with me, it will more than make up for it. Plus, I travel for work to a lot of great fishing destinations...Salmon River, Nipigon, French River etc... Thanks for all the congrats and well wishes folks!
quickme Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 Super good news.. Congrats! Enjoy every moment.
Headhunter Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 Congrats Doc! If they haven't come home yet, get yerself out fishin... NOW! It'll be a while before you see a lake or a river, WHENEVER YOU WANT TO! Joking aside, there is nothing better than what you just did. Now go ahead and teach him proper catch and release!!! LOL HH
Big Cliff Posted June 8, 2009 Report Posted June 8, 2009 It has been almost 40 years since my first was born and I still remember every detail, I'm sure you will too 40 years from now! Congratulations to you all!
setomonkey Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 congrats, that's awesome. Nothing like it, even with how much it kills your fishing time, at least at first... Mike
Pigeontroller Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 Congrats! Nothing in life is as amazing as seeing your first child come into this world! Interesting name choice! A good family friend who's been gone some years now was from Denmark and his name was Kaj. I always liked it and if I were to have another Son that would be his 1st or maybe 2nd name.
wuchikubo Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 Congrats!!! All those early hours waking up for fishing training will come in handy for a little while I hope all the family is doing well. Stan
Dnthmn Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 Congrats and tell Kai I said Happy Birthday! He could not have picked a better day to arrive (Yes, it's my birthday too!) Little tip, I was able to get out and do more fishing while the missus was still off on Mat leave. Just take a late night or early morning feeding, then when his belly's full and his bum is changed, lay him back down to sleep and hit the water. By the way, diaper then bottle in that order only. Don't want to take the advice then I'm not responsible for what happens Congrats again.
Leecher Posted June 10, 2009 Report Posted June 10, 2009 Congratulations to both of you He's a cutie and keeper for sure Leechman
