Default I'm a dad again!

Just got back from the hospital. My daughter - Julianna Jean - was born at 12:01 PM at the Foothills.

She's gorgeous........I'll post some pix later!

Congrats, man. So, by my calculations, your vasectomy that we talked about back in November came about 10 minutes after you.

Thumbs up on the name, I like the aliteration, and it rolls off the tongue very easily.

Congratulations! I love the name you gave her. Thank goodness you didnt pick some of those odd names that were mentioned in the other thread (something about Sweden and laws over baby names).

CONGRATS!

Thanks, y'all! I just got back from the hospital again. Mum and baby are doin' great. This is number four for me and my first little girl. I knew somebody would bring up that vasectomy.......one month to the day after the snip, I was informed we were expecting again.

Thanks for the feedback on the name. My grandmother's name is Anastasia, but is Anna for short. She'll be 98 this November and just recently moved into an assisted living residence. Jean is my mother's middle name, her mother's middle name, my sister's middle name, you get the drill.

I'm just happy that my wife's okay.

Once I figure out how, I'll post some pictures.

Congratulations! My grandmother was named Julianna, and I always liked that as a name. I will be a father for the first time sometime within the next month, and I am really excited. We are also having a girl.
