Default Im a New Dad!

Well my wife finally gave birth to our daughter, Brooklyn Marie Boling, 7lbs 12oz 19inches long, and i cant put into words the joy shes has already brought, now i know what being a dad is all about, reminds me of the country song "Ill see ya when ya get home prolly be up all night, still cleaning this gun" lol

Congratulations! Mom and baby are doing well? I have a four month old girl and you're right, you can't describe in words the feeling of becoming a father. Very surreal. Congrats again.

Congrats man! My twin brother is expecting his first any day and my wife and I have our first coming next month. How do you guys keep your toys with a baby? I have a bike and my WS6 and I feel a little guilty. I'm actually considering selling the T/A. I guess I could throw the car seat in the back for the summer cruises.
