And it's not gonna be easy. A two-year-old, a newborn, and two old dogs. Man... And you know, there's always that initial "What were we thinking" when you're confronted with the realization that life has changed. I would have been upset about it all if she hadn't been so cute. So small. Man, I can't wait for her to smile for the first time. I don't remember when babies start to smile. I don't remember anything.
Liam has been staying at Granny's until tomorrow. He saw his sister in the hospital and ran for the door. It's a new adventure for all of us.

It's probably okay that you don't remember anything. Aren't all babies different anyway?
Congratulations!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was just thinking that you hadn't posted in awhile and I wonder why not and so I clicked over here just to make certain and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! Such great news! Wow! And happy Passover (almost).
Congratulations! She's beautiful!
Congratulations. And while you can call yourself an old dog if you fell like you really shouldn't be calling your wife that way.
ClioAndMe, thanks! And you're right. I can't depend too much on experience. It's all about improvisations anyway.
Jill, thanks, and happy Passover to you too. I've been busy making babies, but now I'm back!
Kristen, thank you thank you. And she's getting prettier every second.
SJ, you're right! Saying "two dogs" would have been enough!
With a wealth of experience behind me, 37 days worth, you are so screwed now.
Little girls.
A daughter is a wondrous thing. May she bring you much joy.
Congratulations!
Xbox, 37 days? You're already at the easy part! I can take care of a 37-days-old girl with my hands tied behind my back.
Cara, thanks you!
Congratulations and good luck to Liam!
Thanks!
Congrats! I love that name and you'll be shocked how quick it all comes rushing back to you-- I think they smile around 3 mos!
GirlGriot, thanks! Glad you like the name. We didn't tell anyone until she was born. Even Liam knew not to tell anyone.
Florida Girl, I assume it's because it takes most parents 3 months to smile after a baby is born.
Congratulations! And 'enjoy'. Heh heh. It's biologically important that we don't remember what newborns are like. Otherwise the human race would die out.
Just so you know - two is four times as hard as one.
Thanks, Freeman. Actually, she's freakishly good so far. HER BROTHER, ON THE OTHER HAND, is a good boy, don't get me wrong, but he can teach her a thing or two about crying.
