Name him Braeden or whatever the equivalent is for a girl and sign them up for travel ball. Start teaching grounders as soon as they can crawl.

Seriously though, being a Dad is the greatest and most rewarding job you’ll ever have. Enjoy the ride!

On our first child, I was almost ready to divorce her crazy arse and then we found out she was pregnant. Those hormones are a mfer.

Congratulations. Kids will definitely change your life, usually for the better.
I for example used to be the slacker that showed up late for work everyday.
Now I’m the slacker who gets there early.

None of us do. If someone told you they did or that it’s going to be a breeze, they’re lying. Stay patient and slow to anger. Understand that parenting is a process and you’re going to make mistakes. Just make sure the mistakes you make are all coming from love and not anger and you’ll be golden.

Shocked me for my first. Then one of my cousins pointed out that his brother (my younger cousin) has 5 and is a complete idiot, and if he could do it, I’d be fine with 1. After that quick talk, I was much calmer. Morons have figured this out, you will be ok.

First step is make sure the baby is yours. A friend of mine got burned by this kind of thing back in the late 90s.

It is an amazing experience and will change your life forever. Congrats!



This! My bundle of joy was the cutest ever little girl, 4lbs with beautiful blue eyes...I wheeled her into the newborn heat lamp area and I reached down to her. When she grabbed my finger she grabbed my heart right out with it!

She is 11 now and I am sure I'm going to be asking for my heart back for a few years soon during the teen years but seriously, being a good Dad is worth all the effort!!! Best wishes!
