Best of luck to all. As I say to all the expectant Mom's out there, better you than me!
Alot of folks buy a newspaper the day their child is born, so later you can show it to them and say "this was what was happening in the world when you were born." One of my friends was thoughtful enough to buy a DRF for me on the day my son was born. Kinda cool.

Gavin? You're not going to name him 'Victor'?

Best of luck to you and your wife. You'll probably be amazed that they will let the 3 of you leave the hospital without any sort of instruction manual.

You're in for some wonderful times.

With so many mates of DTers foaling or about to foal, you have to wonder if this site was down for maintenance 9 months ago.

Congrats.
