First-Time Dad: My Wife and I Had Our Baby Ansley Mae McArthur

[Cod]

My wife and I had our first baby on 9 Mar 2007 at 9:50PM GMT in Lakenheath, UK. Her name is Ansley Mae McArthur and she is the most precious thing in the world. I just wanted to share my excitement with everyone on the forums. Sorry if I'm gloating, but I'm just so freakin proud to be a daddy!

Congratulations! And, oh, she is just so cute and cuddly looking! So, as soon as she can sit up on your lap and type, she'll be joining PF, right?

 

[SticksandStones]

Congratulations!

I'm sure that euphoric feeling will subside once she's 13 or so.. ;)

I'm going to be a bit original and say:

Super Congratulation! Hope she joins PF soon.

 

[Cyrus]

Shes lovely, hooah!

 

[Math Is Hard]

Welcome, Ansley Mae! Are you writing differential equations on the ceiling over her crib yet? (My uncle did that for me and I swear it came back to memory on at least one of my final exams!)

Congratulations!

How true! How true.

My cute cuddly little daughter is now 13...

Can't wait till she turns 25... Hope I am still around to see it,

Congratulations, and wlecome to the club. My daughter (our first) is almost seven months old. I think you'll find that life takes on a new perspective

Fred Garvin and I (and others?) also announced the births of our babies to the family here at Physics Forums.

Cod, I don't know about you, but SicksandStones and Integral are scaring me.

Thanks everyone for the wonderful compliments and encouragements!

Beautiful baby Cod!

Just hope she never learns how to use your debit card.

 

[Cyrus]

Hey, I just realized.

Does that make her a british citizen?

Hey, I just realized.

Does that make her a british citizen?

My wife and I wondered the same thing. After some calls to legal, we've been told that she is currently a dual-citizen (British and American birth certificates); however, we do not have to keep the British citizen ship longer than I'm stationed in UK.

Welcome to the new world. I have three, ages 2, 4, and 6. You've heard of the term "BC," right? (That's "before children") Everything changes.

These changes are not all bad, nor good; everything is just different now. And no, I wouldn't change back. Congratulations!

 

[sas3]

Congratulations to all involved!

Have you decided what collage she will be attending and what she will major in yet?

 

[Cod]

Congratulations to all involved!

Have you decided what collage she will be attending and what she will major in yet?

Well, my wife and I are both "science people" and not very good with the liberal arts stuff. So we're both guessing that she'll be science-minded because both of us are. And I'm hoping that will be the case.
