Welcome little Aaron Cecil 🙂 .  
I really hope Uncle Cecil drops into this thread. Of all the pleas for his recognition, this is the most worthy of a congratulations.  
(And congratulations to AD and Robin too!)

I’ll say congratulations in this thread, too. Isn’t this about number 5 or so. Well, Aaron deserves it, no matter how many there are.

Congrats to the three of you. Maybe to insure Unka Cece’s appearance, you could bribe him with a godfathership, hmmmm ?

I really congratulate you and salute you! Sometimes I wonder if raising a child is scarier than going to battle! 🙂 But, as I see my brother’s children I can say the joy they wring is worth fighting for!

Congratulations once again to all you three!

Well, Dave, it’s always worth a try! Offer gifts, free booze at the christening, your firstborn male child, the traditional inducements.

OK, maybe skip that last one. 😉

But I fully expect his first full sentence to be, "Cite, please?)

I’ve posted congrats at least twice or three times already, but you can never have too much of that! 🙂

So congratulations to Dave and Robin, and welcome to our world, Aaron!

Speaking from personal experience, I can say that Dopers have beautiful babies. So a Doper+Doper baby must be a double treat.

Congrats to the **Doors** family, and welcome to the world, baby Aaron.

**Uncle Cecil** may not be interested, but Aunt Cheri is delighted that everything went well, and that Aaron is safely arrived and resting in his proud parent’s love!

Welcome, **BabyDoors**!!!
