Thanks Paul, much appreciated! She came into the world last night at 8 lbs. 8 ounces and 21 inches. She is strong, may well make a solid kiter and at ease free diver someday. Here is a photo from this morning.



Hope the sleeping is not as extreme as some describe, could well be though. May have to start yet another forum, this time for clueless newbie parents, like myself, ha! Interesting times ahead.

Thanks everybody! It has been less than two days and life does seem quite a bit different. I suspect the trend will continue, heading into the unknown. Lots of you folks are tried and true veterans of parenting.

Great news on your wife's pregnancy Tony! Let us know how things are going.

Here's a few shots, some taken with a GoPro HD. Wide angle, water and impact resistant, sounds like just the ticket for baby photography.

Is there a special "baby mount" for the GoPro HD? You could attach it to the bouncy thing that they use, when she gets a little older. Or to the edge of the high chair tray to catch some feeding behavior.

Or maybe the "Rick Diaper Change" cam.
