I felt you deserved a thread for this and not just a single post in an unrelated thread.
Congratulations to both you and the Missus on your baby girl. I’m sure you’ll raise her to be a heartbreaker, assuming she takes after her mother. 
And if not, you could always teach her to sing a forticissimo high C and raise her to be a glassbreaker.
Congrats to the corner case fam!

MAzeltov!!! ;j
See? THAT’s the way you do it.
Congratulations Corner Case!
Thank You All! 
My first day back to the virtual world. Mother and Katelyn (and the two boys, 2yr-old-Beezy* and 4yr-old-Andy) are well. We got home Sunday after the easiest of the three pregnancies. Unlike the boys, she knows how to breastfeed properly.
We are now trying to get all the usual things done and still get up every two to three hours to feed her. I’d love to stay in bed, but she needs help after the C-section and I change the baby. And she’s cute and fun to hold. She looks around (blue eyes so far), and grimaces, and sticks her tongue out, and smiles (I know baby’s vision is like 20/400 and smiling isn’t emotion, but it’s cute anyway). She’s got long fingers and toes and is so small and light comperd to the boys. She is much easier than the boys, but then it’s our third.
I was raised without a dad and so was worried about how to Be a dad to boys. I thought it would be easier to raise a girl since, even if I had a dad, I would have to be making it up anyway. Then I realized that I was going to be making it up as I went along with the boys, so I stopped worrying (well, stopped some).
Thanks again for your congratulations and happiness for us!
- Beezy is called “Beezy” because when he was born, 2yr-old-Andy, was learning to talk and if he repeated something he might just repeat the last syllable he heard. So “Baby” became “bee”, and “bee” became every variation from there.
Aesiron commented about girls being easier than boys and not having to watch boring sports tournaments.
Mom’s feeling is that she’s going to be subjected to the ancient Mother’s Curse - “I hope you have a girl and she grows up to be Just Like You!” I think she’ll be opinionated, smart, cute, and Type-A, just like her mother. I took tennis and bowling for my required college PE requirements. I’m type O+.
As for sports, mom grew up swimming all through school and the boys just love the water. She’ll grow up loving it too.
vivalostwages commented that girls are tougher, wilier, and fussier. I’m thinking that’ll be true. She’ll be able to get away with some things, but the boys try that too and - up with what we want to put, we put (that’s for viva :D). When any of them try to Really con us - heaven help them.
