Oh, here's one from late this afternoon.
Iher already.
Aww, she's adorable!
Congratulations, Patrick.
Aww. She is so beautiful. So cute.Thank you, Brice and sj.
sarajean, yes, that would be cool. But it would be more awesome if she comes home sooner!
Here's a bonus goofball photo taken on the 19th:
By the way, I'm still debating whether to post the fact that a few months ago my wife (who is not an SK fan) told me she credits Stephen King with the fact that we were going to have a girl. True story.
And why does she credit SK with this?Thank you, Brice and sj.

sj, move back to California and we'll talk.
That was my reaction as well when she made the statement, Brice.And why does she credit SK with this?
As you know, we have two boys already.
I suppose this might be TMI for the delicate (no, not you, Brice), so I'll spoiler mark it while I try to explain the logic.
Spoiler:
Therefore, my wife credits Stephen King for the fact that she got the girl she always wanted.
By the way, our baby got released from the hospital last Thursday, at eight days old. Here she is at home:

oh, patrick.
he so totally is responsible.
and...i swear, she's just the cutest thing.
Patrick - She's just so precious. I'm so happy she's home safe with the rest of the family... and I love the story of how she came to be.

Thanks, sj and Pam.
By the way, I'd take that whole chain of logic with a grain of salt, but anything that makes my wife think more favorably at all about SK (and by extension, my SK book addiction) is fine by me!

So are you going over to his message board to start a thread titled "It's Stephen King's fault my wife got pregnant"?Thanks, sj and Pam.

It's not his fault she got pregnant, it is to his credit that the baby is a girl.
But I love the Jerry Springer vibe in the way you phrase it.
Too bad all posts are prescreened over there, or I'd be tempted to take your suggestion.

I know. That's why I love you, man.

Thanks. Thus far my younger son is hording the freckles and not sharing with the other two.
I love his freckles. He has lots of them.

She got a skull cap for when she's cruising around in Daddy's truck.I'm not sure her mom cares for it though.

At least I tried to color-coordinate the cap to her binkie...
