Awwwwww! I bet Phil doesn't find time to obsess over strings for a while yet. I can see it now:

Congrats Phil, and Chris you nailed it. Fortunately now that mine are teenagers (and soon not teenagers, ouch!) you forget all that. I think I'm finally caught up on sleep. Never mind the time to test strings, Phil probably won't have the $$ to feed his habit.

Thanks everyone. It's all very overwhelming.

Going home from the hospital tomorrow.

The world looks very different today.

I'll be back with you soon....

Congrats Phil. A new adventure has just begun!

Now, maybe you'll get over GAS due to your participation in DAS (diaper acquisition syndrome).

I really liked the pic from the shop site.

You & your wife should be proud.

Best wishes,
