Well, I guess there is no need to ask what you've been doing in your spare time.

Default Congrats Mom and Dad!

Greg,
Just give the kiddo a few years, then put a bucking bar in his hand and send him back into the fuse.

What wonderful gifts God gives us. Our most heartfelt congratulations go out to you. The project can wait...then keep pounding!

Default Congrats!

Prepare for a slowdown. I started my slow build 10 in 2011, and my wife was preggo at the time. My daughter is now almost 2 1/2 and we are expecting our second (and last) child on July 4th. Building time is hard to come by whilst keeping the family happy, but it can be done. You're much farther along than I am, so that's a plus. Nice pic!

I was hoping you would finish before me so I could learn from your inspection and test flying but I kinda gotta feeling I'll be creeping up on ya now!...Seriously, congratulations on the arrival of that fine looking young man! Enjoy him because he will be grown before you know it!

Default Great picture!

Congratulations Greg!

Now you have to hurry and finish the 9A so you can start on the 10.

Well, it wasn't quite that bad - but after 4 rounds of in-vitro and then the hospital bills for the birth, it's about 80 grand. I wouldn't take a million for the result, though!
