Uncle Dáin? No...DADDY Dáin. Yipe! (Now with pictures!)
« on: November 04, 2008, 12:35:20 PM »
Elaina Margaret Evans was born at exactly 7:30am today (November 4), weighing in at exactly 7 pounds and measuring exactly 20 inches. I appreciate her making all my math easy. ;)

Mother, baby, and yes, father are all doing fine, albeit exhausted. Labor lasted from Sunday evening until, as I said, 7:30 this morning. Ew. Got a grand total of one hour of sleep last night, and am reluctantly (though probably wisely) now home to catch some Zs before heading back to the hospital to be with my girls there for the next day or so.

Obviously, best to count me out from any kind of regular activity for the next several days. I'll pop in when and if I can, but DCs and all are likely on hold for a little while.

I'll provide pictures when we're back home in the next 24-48 hours and get settled down (at least somewhat). She's cute as a button...can't wait to show her off. ;D

Wow, you're already screwing up her birthday by not remembering the actual date? That can't be good! LOL
Congratulations, Dáin! I wish your family the best!

DOH! #-o I blame the lack of sleep.

Speaking of which, off to bed. :-Z

Congrats good sir. I wish you all the joys of fatherhood (especially the changing of the diapers).
If a Balrog falls from a bridge and noone is around, does it make a sound?

CONGRATULATIONS!  ;D

This is seriously awesome. I can't wait for pictures and whatnot.

Don't you spare much thought to us guys over here. We'll still be here when you're settled down.

Now go get some sleep, you silly Dwarf!
Happy Hunting!

Congrats, my good dwarf!

And, might I add, "Elaina" is a wonderfully pretty name.

Here's to your nice, long, post-birth nap! :up:
Forget it. I'm not arguing with the computer anymore to try to get the sig I want....

Are you awake yet?   :lol: 

Just kidding, what I really mean is -:¦:-•:*'""*:•.-:¦:-•*Congratulations!*•-:¦:-•:*'''''*:•-:¦:-

It's good to hear that everything came out okay (no pun intended, well, maybe it was intended a little  ;) ), and that everyone is healthy.  Bring on those pictures! 

And I agree, Elaina is a beautiful name.
