Blog post
My daughter, Emma Caitlin Hawkins was born this Monday. Now we have two kids!!!! She weighed in at a healthy 7 pounds 10 ounces, a meer shadow of her brother who was 10 pound 8 ounces when he was born.

Needless to say, long days, we're all very tired and no time to play video games... well I did play Artic Poker for a little while... oh and Diner Dash... hmmm...

Congratulations! Welcome to the 2 kids club. A boy and a girl should be good. I have too boys. Chaos and mayhem. (Noah and Levi really, but their alias' are more accurate!)
Best of luck.

Thanks everyone - nice comments. It times like these that I realise this community is awesome :)

@Chip - is that your first?

@Leroy - I've got my 2 year old into Project Gotham Racing 2 and TOCA 2 - he's fast becoming worthwhile as a fun opponent ;-) Just kidding - but digging out the Scaletrix for him to play with the other day was a dream come true.

@Edward - what's that saying, if you say maybe, then you probably will. We said maybe :)

I guess my daughter might not be into games, more likely horsies and fairies - ohh well, I'll send a snap if I ever end up having to wear a tuotuo (spelling?)

Hmmm I have a daughter... still letting that one sink in...

Congrats man, mine is 4 months old now and I love the fact that I have a home office and can be around her 24/7. Productivity takes a hit though as I keep running over every 20 minutes to play with her ;p

Congrats! You'll find the amount of work it takes to take care of them increases exponentially with each child. And you'll enjoy every minute. :o)

Congrats. 2 is a great number. It took 3 tries to get my daughter. That's ok tho, It was lots of fun raising them. Now, I get the pleasure of playing with my Grandson. I Just love spoiling him and sending him home to momma. :D
Enjoy them while they are young. Nothing is more important than paying attention to them when they need it. (and they Will let you know when they need it.) They grow up wayyyy too fast.
