Arrived on Monday afternoon at 8lb 9oz. After all my worry about how it would go this time, missus got induced and it was practically text book delivery from the midwives. Amazing.

Already pished all over me twice, learning curve for me changing boys nappies. Also has taken to doing shit at 3:30am last two nights. 

Brilliant pal. Superb news.

I was useless for the first 4 or 5 nappies. Worried about it being on too tight and hurting the kid. 

After being covered in pish, I took a different tack. Needs to be virtually airtight.

Anyway - congratulations!

Yasss. Fantastic news pal! So glad to hear it all went so well and he's a smasher.

Aye, you have to watch with wee boys. It's like staring down the barrel of a gun. The second the air gets to it's away.

Thanks pal, it really is, hit me from about a foot away in the living room as well actually when the missus was changing him.

Put a bib over the top of it so it pushes it down. Source - angle was such that he pished on his own head and I had a beer sitting close enough to him that I wasn't going to trust it any more. Also put kitchen roll underneath from bum to feet to absorb any downward spray. 

It's chaotic man, apparently you can get a teepee for it.

Yeah I always get a bit worried in the early stages that I'll break them, picked him up the first time being used to the weight of my 2yr old and nearly lobbed him over my shoulder.

I’ve been told to blow into his nappy to get him to pee before the nappy comes off fully.

This sounds like a trick where I end up getting my face pished on next. On the plus side no 3:30am jobby last night, negatives he's a hungry lad and feel like we spent most of the night feeding. I've not missed that.

Toddlers may just be the funniest people on the planet. My daughter makes me laugh more than anyone I know. 

The Bairn has just told her granny - who is not giving her what she wants - that "I'm going to throw you out"!
Idle threat which will not be implemented if she's anything like her granny.

You know that scene in Only Fools n Horses where Delboy has a baby and when Rodney finds out it’s a boy and O Fortuna starts playing?

Well, you all might need to listen to this.

Is this supposed to be your "announcement". You' d need to be a bit less cryptic.

Endlessly fascinating and the best entertainment I've known.  But it goes way beyond the toddler years. 

I played Cribbage with my son (now aged 22) after the rugby on Sunday (boo) and the look  of concentration on his face as he decided which cards to chuck was identical to his expressions when deciding which shape goes where in his 'Shape Sorting House' aged 2:

This is good news.  You have decades of fascination ahead.

Ha, can imagine that being hilarious. Hard to imagine the wee one being an actual adult at this point. 

Fascinating, hilarious, joyful…call it what you want…they really are amazing. Fatherhood has exceeded all expectations (and I was excited about it).

Put me down for one more! Second daughter was born January 19th. She's already sleeping "through the night" which would be delightful, but our 2 and a half year must have inherited her dad's sleeping patterns, seems to be waking up at least twice in the night and needs chocolate milk and or sung back to sleep, then decides 5.30am is when she's fully awake!

Starting her in lacrosse in two weeks, hoping maybe it will at least tire her out enough to sleep all night on Saturdays
