Congrats! My boss is due to have his first child tomorrow if his wife doesn't go into labor today. Must be exciting!

It's great that the kid picked Thanksgiving (or the day before) to be born also, it will make it easier to recall the birthdate down the road :)

Welcome to the club Snowman. Mrs Bayfield & I just spent 9 fantastic days with our daughter, her two year old son and 4 month daughter. What a blessing they are. And we marvel at how two little ones can keep three adults on the go! I am sure our daughter needed a day or two to get things under control again once Grumpa and Grumma weren't around.

Congratulations and Happy Thanksgiving!!

Congratulations! What a fantastic addition, to your already wonderful family! I'll step out on a limb, and just guess that he is going to be spoiled rotten by the Snowman family ;).

Congrats again!!!!
