First of all, congrats are in order. For a **beaglepup** , she’s pretty cute. Little too young for me, though. Let me pass a long a nickle’s worth of free advice: At first, she’s not gonna want to sleep the night through. Here’s a tip you’ll never find in Heloise…mix a shot of vodka and half a Valium into her milk. She’ll sleep all night. ---

Congrats on the Baby Beagle! She’s a beautiful little girl! I wish you a lifetime of happiness and joy! (Oh, and a couple of hours of sleep everynight, even if they aren’t sequential!) Good luck! ---

**Baker** , I have officially peed my pants. That was so hilarious. I am going to e-mail that to my Bro and Bro in law. They both have daughters. They will crack up. **Beagledave** , congratulations on your new addition! Everything about her is beautiful. Have a wonderful time being a parent. ---

Way to go! She’s gorgeous–and well worth the wait, hmmm? I’d worried about your wife, counting off those last days to delivery in this godawful heat wave. Congrats to you, baby, wife and beagle. You’ve got everything that matters, my friend. So happy for you all, Veb ---
