    Congrats Ben. I was actually thinking today that you were going to be a dad soon.

    Baby Einstein is a piece of cake compared to some of the other stuff they listen to when they get a little older.

    Make sure you watch Phineas and Ferb with him when he is older. It is funny on both a kids and adult level. At least for me it is funny:D

    I like speakers that are bigger than a small refrigerator but smaller than a big refrigerator:D

    Awesome. I was hoping you were going to name him after me.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben

    Ha ha! Phineas and Ferb. I personally enjoy Handy Manny. Especially when you remember that the voice of Handy Manny is Wilmer Valderama, or Fez from "That 70's Show."
    I know just enough to be dangerous, but don't tell my wife, she thinks I'm a genius. :D

    Been there, done that! Congratulations ... and yes, it truly is wonderful. The first four to six months can be tough at times, until they start sleeping through the night. After that, it just gets better and better and even better IMO. I very much doubt if you will ever look back.

    Consistency is going to be your very best friend IMO, and the number one, cardinal rule that should govern all your choices, without exception. If he knows the "rules" you and the wifey want to establish, whatever the situation, and those rules are clear to him, he will do his very best to abide by them, without fail. Don't ever contradict each other within earshot of him, or, when he's old enough, he'll start to play you one against the other, and then there'll be hell to pay!

    P.S., a very nice, Irish name, Aidan, if you ask me ...
    Alea jacta est!

    As the father of 3 boys myself, I can only say that there is no other experience you will ever have that can compare to wonderful world that just opened to you.

    Congratulations and best wishes to you, your wife, and Aidan.
