It's a boy!
Hey everybody, I have been a little quiet lately, but all for good reason. My wife and I had a boy last week! Edward Alexander Ebright was born last Tuesday, and my life is changed forever! I have never been so tired in all my life, but it is absolutely worth it! Hopefully, once we get some sort of order back to our lives, I will get back to taking a few nature photos, and maybe make it to one of the many happy hours that I hope will be going on this summer! :biggrin:

Congratulations!! Must be baby time at CNP again. My second is due in 2 weeks :eek: Have fun, and don't try to rush into taking pictures. The outdoors will be there when you're ready, but you won't believe how fast your baby will grow, and you don't want to miss anything. Congrats again!

Congrats to both of you (Chris and his wife), while your life has changed, and boys are challenging, it too is a blessing.

I think the boys are winning 4 to 2 over the last few years.

Congrats Chris! My wife and I are also expecting our third in the next 2-4 weeks (my wife is diabetic, so they could bring the baby at any time). I am trying to save up on my sleep, but it is not really working out...:rolleyes:
