I tricked a girl to like me and set up a home, so what?
Are you saying well done because he decided to have kids or because he got someone pregnant?

I'm saying congrats because it's the nice non grumpy auld bollox thing to do . Or do you think that having a kids isn't important enough to say congratulations ? If so let me know what is ?

Of course he and the Mrs deserve congratulations - and who was the first one to offer congratulations on this thread?
It's the "well done" comments I am confused by.

Seriously, you'll never sleep again after June unless you go on a bender in Scotland for a weekend.
i went to Scotland on a weekend bender and never slept a wink!

I blame the 'would you/wouldn't you thread' ;D
Congrats HH, wish you both all the best.
Congratulations........ 8)
Attaboy HHN - Hard willies indeed! :D :D :D :D
Take it from me, the woman has nine months to adjust...hormones, mood swings, weight gain etc
Whereas the da, well, he wakes up one morning and that's it he's a da. No time to adjust whatsoever.
Please God all goes well for you both. Mini-me is 6 and Santa is just the business. Feckin love the excitement as much as he does.

I know what you mean Aerlik. Me and the wife laid out all the gifts last night and although the kids are all but grown they love Christmas, it is the time of the year we do everything as a family. Work takes a back seat and we have a ton of other Irish and English people over who have been coming to the house for years and we have a slap up feed and the guitar breaks out and we have a hooley until about 1:00 in the morning. It is the best time of the year. :)

Congrats HHN, becoming a Dad in May myself 'touch wood', exciting and frightening at the same time....

I know...my wee lad is 3, and yesterday was just pure magic. Santa did the whole show..footprints thrrough the house, magic dust, half eaten carrots. Loved it.
it is brilliant, love Christmas morning, getting up at half six and looking at the reaction of the kids makes it all worth while

Santa Claus did well at our house when we were kids, dad decided that he would be sick of milk and so we (the three kids) left out a half'un of hennesy each!

mine wanted to put out tins of Carlsberg but I had to explain about Santa and drink driving
So we have a scan next friday and they reckon they will be able to tell us the sex then.
What would ye do? Seems some people are very much against finding out, we are going to find out.
Didn't have much of a choice at our second scan, the doc gave us the scan result with a big circle drawn around the wee mans willie.
Wouldn't really be bothered if I was told beforehand or not, but I know some have superstitions about it.

the City hospital had a policy of not telling you the sex of the baby, and we diddnt want to know anyway, if I had the choice I wouldt want to know

When Mrs Puck and I went home to ireland in the summer and we already knew, alot of family were very surprised at us for finding out. I couldnt not find out. Maybe if I ever have a third baby Id go for a surprise.
Well cheers for the good wishes folks, and to clarify, Pints, you are right I dont need a "well done" I quite enjoyed it in fact ;)
Tis a pleasantry more than anything else.
Her Holiness managed to shake the morning sickness just before christmas so I'm glad to say she managed the dinner. And Its handy to have a full time designated driver for the next few months, although I reckon I will pay for it when junior arrives :o
Roll on next week when the sex of the second coming shall be revealed, I reckon a boy, although couldnt give a shite once its, as Del boy put it, "a little baby" ;D
Congrats Holiness, enjoy the sleeplessness. ;)

Right about now Im going to second that motion.
You having a break at work Puckoon? :P
its 8 and Im not even in the shower yet - productivity is going out the window. Sleepless nights are fine - a week full of them puts you in POGS timewarp.
Do ye work from home Puckoon? If so, you can wave goodbye to productivity for a year. :)
I would've hated to have found out the sex beore hand.
A mate of mine and his missus went for a scan once.
Nurse: Do you want to know the sex?
Couple: No.
Nurse: Go on, you must be dying to know.
Couple: No it's fine thanks.
Nurse: Are you sure?
Couple: Yes, we're grand.
Nurse: OK. What have you at the minute.
Couple: 3 boys, and 1 girl.
Nurse: Ach, the wee girl is going to be happy then.
Congrats His Holiness :)
congratulations to the 'Holiness family'
Best of luck to you from now untl June and then even more afterwards !
:)
Congrats HH exiting times ahead hope and i hope everthing goes well for ye, we didn't know whether we were going to have a boy or girl till the birth and to tell you the truth it was a few minutes afterwards before i realised our girl was a girl, i thought at 1st she was a he ( i thought the umbilical cord was the willie sure where would he leave it ;)) anyway my excuse was that i took more gas than my missus during the labour :D :D happiest day of my life well that and the birth of my second
