Let me bore you with pictures of my newest. [1](http://www.rileypatrickhenderson.com/finn1.jpg),[2](http://www.rileypatrickhenderson.com/finn2.jpg),[3](http://www.rileypatrickhenderson.com/finn3.jpg),[4](http://www.rileypatrickhenderson.com/finn4.jpg)

There’s that. Then the fact that I got a new job. Then the fact that I decided to do a bike commute to my new job, and then the open compound fracture of ulna and radius (yeah, that means a bone was sticking out) that resulted from all that. Then there’s the return visit to the hospital for the unexpected bleeding of mommy.

Ain’t no stress in my life. No siree.

I haven’t been around the boards lately, and I probably won’t visit too often considering. My wife calls you folks the geeks. Well geeks. I consider you family, and I’m proud to make this a birth announcement.

For those of you that say that folks who make such important announcements on message boards need to get a life, I say this:

Big 'ol congratulations, **NurseCarmen** – adorable tyke you’ve got there. Hope you and the family are all doing well.

And don’t be _too_ much of a stranger – as a fellow geeky football fan, your opinions are valued.

Some men will do anything to trump their wife’s experience of child birth, like have an open compound fracture.

**Nurse Carmen** you are an attention whore 😃

I love the first picture taken of your newest one. It says " I want to go back!"

Congrats on such a beautiful baby from the Geek Squad!

That is a true insight into the lives of me. From the moment we leave the womb, we want to go back. To any womb.

May I be the first to say what an abominably ugly baby you’ve got there! 😃

Thank goodness that the days ahead will turn him into a beauty…hey, I’ve done kids, and I know how revolting they can be in their early hours. Thank god their parents love them because everyone else would just kill them for their unattractiveness eh?

Congrats NurseCarmen. 😛
