Alright! I am glad to hear it Doc. Congrats. The only bad things about babies are sleepless nights, but it's worth it.

Hoopty will post photos soon, so you guys can see that, no, she doesn't look much like her Daddy at all, thank God!

Mommy has the day shift, and Daddy does the night shift.  I can nap at the office if I have to... :-)

She's a little cutie Doc.  Hope she doesn't give the parents too much grief in years to come.  Don't think I could do a daughter myself.  She'd never have a boyfriend if I had it my way.  Anyway, congrats again.

:lol:

My oldest daughter married her high school sweetheart after dating him for 7 years, and he is a fine son-in-law and a great husband.
My 22-year-old probably won't get married until she's 30-something (I think she's trying to find a guy that's like her father, and boy, are they scarce!)
With luck and God's good grace my younger two will follow in their sisters' footsteps.  Of course, I enjoy greeting the prospective suitors at the front door while cleaning a shotgun, which seems to have a profound impact on the young lads!  :-D
