Obsessive Rep Point Checkers Club (Volume IV)

I finally moved up another spot to 52 on the editing queue!!!!

Btw, can someone explain why I have Whitney Houston's song I have nothing if I don't have you floating around in my head?

'Cause you've been cursed?


That's all I've got.

NICE.

Ah - good morning?

Still no word from Del?

Morning reppers

Morning, and VInce, you've been here as much as I have, I haven't seen her.

Yeah, I know. But for all I know, one of you may have contact beyond AW with her. Maybe Facebook or Twitter or some odd psychic connection. Or maybe even real life, although that seems to be pushing the bounds of believe-ability.

Haha, yeah, it's not me Vince. Sorry.

Had to fight my wife to take new iPad with for oil change. Geeze!

I do, actually, and if we haven't heard anything here soonish, I'll probably make that call.


But I suspect she'll let us know when she can.

I'm starting to think you should have bought two, Vince.


Or just never told your family.

This is my early birthday present.

Your only other option is to send your teenagers to me for "reconditioning". When you get them back, they'll never touch your iPad again without first receiving explicit permission, detailing when, where, and for how long they are allowed to use said iPad.

And they might piddle on the floor when they hear a cowbell, but that's a rare side effect.

Welcome to Seth!

Yay!!!!!!!



Beautiful!!

Yeah, it was not a fun or fast birth.

They gave her something to help her dilate at 4PM Thursday, and for a while, she was making good time. They weren't going to induce actual labor until early the next morning, because it makes no sense to bring on contractions if the baby can't move anywhere. Makes sense. She had to be at least 3-5 cm to get the patosin. She was 2 when she came in.

At 7AM the next morning, she was at 3, so they decided to break her water. This put a 24 hour deadline for the baby to be born. And contractions got hard, things moved along for a couple of hours, then stopped.

It continued like that all day yesterday and all night last night. Do something, progress, that stopped after a couple of hours, repeat, do not pass go, do not collect baby.

Poor wifey was doing this pretty much for 36 hours straight. No one really got sleep. Everyone was pretty ragged this morning--especially her. But once Seth was there to be held, it was suddenly all better.

She's already talking about the two-three siblings he'll have someday already.

IMHO, that's the real miracle of childbirth.

Well, I'm thrilled they're doing alright. Such a beautiful family.

Makes me want another.

Wait for the grandkid(s). Society allows you to spoil them rotten and no one will ever say anything except "That's your job".

Congrats Grandma Del, Boychild and Wifey!
