Oh Dan. It will never stop when it comes to women. LOL No offense Mary.

She says it won't interfer with your fishing but just wait. It won't be your wife stopping you but it will be your child. You are going to want to spend every waking moment with your new bundle of joy.

I use to fish 250, if not more, days before my child and now I may fish 50 to 80 days a year. But now that my daughter is getting older WE fish a lot together. That is one of the many great things that you can look forward to.

I would change NOTHING if I had to do it all over again.

Congratulations!!!!

Congratulations!
There is nothing as rewarding, or challenging as being a Dad. I have a little girl who is 7 now and I don't like her going to Grandmas for the night if I'm home. I want to spend every second with her. I take her fishing, to the mall, to lunch, everywhere. I chaperone feid trips go to Ice cream socials, book fairs, parent teacher conference.
If you told me 10 years ago I would be this crazy about anything but fishing I would have told you that you were nuts.
I don't want to make this thread about me. Just wanted to let you know your life has just changed...for the better.
Again Cogratulations! Being a Dad is the BEST! :cheers:

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

I think I need to create a cigar smiley before the baby gets here so we have them on that wonderful day

That's great news!!! :boing: By the way, there is a forum board called The Baby Board that has all kinds of links to free products, information, and general stuff. My wife found it when we were waiting for our first grandchild and she gets on it every night. There are links to anything baby related and much more. I will get the info for you and post it. If your wife is like our daughter and my wife, she will enjoy the resources. And you better believe your life is gonna change----For the better!! :thumbup01:
