    Welcome Kristofor Jr.

    This is our first child. Mom didn't enjoy 30 odd hours of labor too much, but the end result was well worth it.

    Mom, and baby are doing great.

    Congratulations. There's just something about the first one. Looks like a woodworker already.

        Congratulations to both of you on a good sized baby. Take a lot of pics because when you turn your head, he'll be a young man.

          That's a fine looking future woodworker and shop buddy. Congrats to you and your wife.

              Congrats, on the new addition. I am sure that I will remember his birthday because that is my nephew's birthday.

              He sure is a cutie.

                  I'm not a woman, but having gone through two births with my wife in past 5 years, I can feel sympathy for yours! Our second was right in there with yours at amost 9 lbs and 30 hours of labor!

                  One word of warning....she's likely to hold that fact over your head for awhile. Whenever I argue with the LOML and she can't come up with pertinent point, she'll end it with "I gave birth to YOUR children"

                  Seriously though, Congratulations on your first. Your life is forever changed for the better. Before you know it, he'll be a young boy. (Our first just turned 5 and I'm still in shock that he's growing so fast!).

                  Take care of the wife, and get some sleep whenever you can!

                    Congrats and ditto what Mike and Ed said -- it's like you turn your head and all of a sudden he is talking to you, walking etc...

                      He's really cute. Now your wife can say she's kissed Kris, Kristofor's son.

                        Conrats! Our first came along just a litle over a year ago. I have to tell you (as I'm sure other can attest) it is a trip in the beginning but as they get older and more aware and start walking and talking...it's mind blowin' to see them "grow" up right before your eyes.

                        Godd luck (you'll need it)

                          Beautiful child and not a bad picture of "you" in the top left corner by your username.

                          Enjoy and start saving now.. that may not make much sense to you at this moment... but wait a few moons and it will. ha.. ha...

                          Congratulations....

                            Congrats! My son turned 21 YEARS old a few weeks ago, in no way am I that old. The time flies, enjoy the ride.
