Hi Michael, Mike, John, Jack, Jeff, Pete, and John,
Thank you for the best wishes and positive comments about Lou and I as new parents.
We're starting to get used to the 2.5-3.5hr cycle Gid has us on, and learning new levels of tolerance... for example, changing a diaper only to have an explosive poop happen just as you start placing the new diaper on. 
>>>Be sure to get him only analog gear at first!
I was thinking about circuit bending some toys for him 
>>>It has been a rollercoaster what with one thing and another, but we're still on the track!
yes indeed, and if you'd ever like to talk outside of the forums over skype or some other chat sometime, I am available to you and open to share the whole experience. Best of luck with the egg collection and following procedures, and I hope that all those close to you are being open to the process. We were very lucky - we only collected 1 egg, and selected to use a procedure where they fertilize the egg, wait for it to take and start dividing, then implant back in, instead of them allowing the sperm to fertilize the egg on its own.
>>>So, is "Marken V" after the planet?
First the planet, then the we'll be expanding the empire to the Andromeda Galaxy. By that time, Lou and I will have ourselves uploaded into a grid computing system

Hooray...!!
Little??
That lad is huge. At least by our standards. He's a good two pounds heavier than any of my boys were. And he's a damn fine looking lad too. Awesome pictures of the three of you. We're very happy for both you and Gideon and are quite tickled to see the slideshow of the big event.

Leanne says hi and says to remember to keep your mouth shut when you remove lil' Gideon's diaper. Those lil' pea-shooters can fire quite unexpectedly and have a pretty good range.


Anywho... take care and have fun.
