Fantastic! Best wishes for the whole family. Our little girl is 14 weeks, and the love of my life (along with her mother of course). Being a dad is the real deal…welcome to the club 🙂 ---

Awwww…that is just so wonderful! **Tygr & jkayla** –I wish you all the best. Having kids is truly a life-altering experience. Mine drive me nuts, but I wouldn’t trade them for anything. There’s nothing like the love kids give you, too. Just wait until she’s a toddler, though, and starts asserting her little self. OH boy. That’s when the _real_ fun begins. 😃 Much love, Cristi ---

Congratulations! You’ve begun a marvelous journey, my it be a long one. Until you get a warmer, here are two tips: you can set the wipes on a heating pad set on low or if you have someone around with you they can run warm a couple in the microwave for 4-5 seconds when you head to the changing table. Best wishes to you all. ---

**Congratulations** , and well done all of you! > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Tygr \* > **Our little cub has finally arrived… weighing 8 lbs, 15 oz. and 22 inches long.** Little?! 🙂 22 inches… you’ll be skipping most of the Newborn sized clothes then? I hope everything proceeds swimmingly. It is a major life change – I speak somewhat knowingly with my own 6 week old little lad – but it’s not as hard as I was dreading, and loads more fun than I thought. ---
