I have been offline recently, due to having a (sorta) unexpected child! Last Saturday we had a beautiful baby girl and we named her Miea. We were at the hospital until Monday evening, so I didn't get around to getting my computer from my PC shop until Tuesday afternoon. I just finally got new wifi adapter drivers, as I never installed them before (didn't need them, had ethernet). So yaaay, now we have internets.
Anyways, I say SORTA unexpected because my lady and I knew she might be pregnant and were taking precautions (ie: diet/exercise) However, we did not know how far along she was. We figured maybe 4 or 5 months along since she hardly showed a baby bump. But to our surprise, January 17th she went into labor!
I remember waking up that morning and Maddie told me she back pain, so I gave her a massage and she fell back to asleep. An hour later she awoke with the same pain, but this time more severe. At this point rubbing her back did not help, so we called her mother to take us to the ER. It went from there.
Miea had a natural birth. She actually came out upside down (which I am sure thats how God intended) but she is healthy and alert. Most babies come out of the womb crying but not Miea, she was just looking around, eyes wide open taking in the new surroundings. Maddie did not need a sea section or stitches, everything went very well.
Here are some pictures

Wide Awake :)
I am very excited to be a new daddy, and can't wait for the adventures ahead raising my little girl. Having a kid can take up a lot of time from modding and such, and I know it's not easy being a parent, but I think I will be a pretty kick-ass Dad :)
