Dr Gloom 21843 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 As of 5am this morning I'm a proud parent to a baby boy, Jonah James, weighing in at an impressive 9 lbs. Labour went well. Mrs G was Herculean in her efforts - and I did some top notch spectating. Only thing that strikes me now as I sit next to snoozing mrs and baby is what the fuck do I do now? Shame they don't come with instruction manuels. And is it too soon to declare him as a toon fan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21843 Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 Thanks guys. Just out of interest, did any of the parents here feel like knew WTF they were doing with your first bambino. The magnitude of what's happened hit me like a bomb when he made eye contact with me for the first time. I have literally no idea what I have to teach this person I helped bring in to the world. I suppose it's mainly a case of making it all up as you go along. Defintely the most overwhelming experience of my life. Can't imagine even a toon treble winning season matching it.
