Proud to announce my wife gave birth to our second son this morning.
8 lbs, 3 oz. A chubby little bundle of fun.
I’m going to be listed as OUT (Personal Reasons) for the immediate future.
Please let me know if you would like to take over the game thread creation and ideally some vest thread creations too.
I should be back in the saddle in a couple of weeks.
Go Magic!
Congratulations! Take as much time as you need.
So happy for you. If it had been another day, your son could have been the first baby of the New Year.

Re: Life Update
Unfortunately, my 5-week old son is currently hospitalized in the NICU with RSV.
Not really a big prayers kind of guy, so not asking for them or anything like that, but just make sure if you have young kids to be extra careful and use preventative measures as best you can because this is absolutely serious business.

I’m really sorry to hear that your son is in the NICU. That sounds incredibly tough. Wishing him a full and speedy recovery, and hoping you and your family are holding up as best as possible.

You will get through this and your little we get better.
I went through RSV and a hospital stay with my daughter. It was a scary time. She needed oxygen assistance and I watched the litters required. It can be up and down at 1st.
Hoping you are able to get back home soon. It’s never fun to stay in the hospital with your little one.

Pretty much exactly where we're at. The doctors and nurses have been super kind and respectful and GREAT with their care, but also very matter of fact about what to expect.
There's not really any way to treat the virus with a kid this young in terms of medicine or treatment.
All they basically can do is put your kid on oxygen and IV fluids and wait for the virus to run it's course. Not fun for the parents (and obviously not the kid either).
