It's a boy!!!!


Howdy y'all

I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce by son, Jake Pajo Phillips, to both LQ.org and to the world. He was born 4 hours ago, 18:47 BST and i cut the cord with both style an finesse. He weighs in at 3.6Kg, 53cm and is totally healthy and hungry.

Unfortunately I got chucked out of the hospital at 10pm, hence me being here.... i assure you i wouldn't be doing this now if i could be with him!

I'm a dad!!

That is so cool... Congrats... I am a dad of a 4yr old boy myself and I have to say that there is no better feeling on this earth when that little boy looks into your eyes knowing your his daddy...

Good Luck and hopefully we will be seeing less of you here as you will not get any sleep for the next couple of years...

Best wishes and congratulations on your child!

The image is taking a long time to load here on my slow connection. Maybe you could upload a low-res version?

Congratulations, you must be so proud.

From the sounds of things the baby is doing very well, hope the mother is aswell.

Best wishes and good luck for the future

Nice! We'll try and be nice people, so that you don't have to come here moderating too much Real life is more important than computing
