Northern California - It's Incredible

Baby boy Incredible decided to come a week and a half early, born Sunday July 18 at 5:41 pm. 6 lbs, 3oz and 20". Took a day to name him, Marlowe Danger.

We are both healthy and well and trying to get some rest at home. Husband and I are totally in love with the little cutie. :love:

Congrats Paula.

Congratulations! Bikes are a distant second in my life and I loooooooove them to death. Children are the best thing ever. Removing training wheels earlier this year brought a tear to my eye. The prophecy was complete. (-:

Congratulations!

JB

Awesome! Welcome to parenthood. Big congratulations to you both.

Thanks everyone! :)


Aw! Congratulations! So is he gonna be on a bike anytime soon? :lol:

I think we have to wait a year before he can wear a helmet. Good thing, although I already have a bike seat for him, I still have to finish building the bike that I'm going to attach it to. :p

It'll be a little while before I'm healed up enough to get back on a bike myself.

Congrats!

We put our little one on a push bike before her second birthday. At close to three years old now, her balance is very impressive. I'd highly recommend one of these for your son in a couple of years.

So cute and Congratulation.

I like the matching comfy clothe he and you are wearing :thumb:

I think the training wheel will be on the "to do list" soon? :)

Best

I was just wondering how you were doing! Good to know all is well with you.

Congrats!

Congratulations! And of course you're in love with him -- just as it could be. As others have said, kids change your lives forever, and I can't imagine my life without my kids. Hug that precious boy and spend as much time with him as you can. This phase won't last long and it's just amazing to watch babies grow.

Congrats Paula. I'm very happy for the 3 of you. Can't wait till we see you on out on the road with us, with the trailer on the back, passing us up on the KOM hill climbs! :)

Jealous. My wifes due date was yesterday.

We're headed to the Farmer's market and brunch. I'd rather be changin a diaper at this point :\

Super cute!

Great news Paula! and the start of a whole new segment of life.

Absolutely adorable baby!!! Congratulations, and yes, it's normal to spend hours just watching the baby sleep! ;)

I know 5 other babies born on July 18th the last three years. My niece, my cousin, my friends baby and 2 of my co workers.My friends kid was born 10 mins after midnight this year, same days as your baby. That's crazy, that's 6 kids on 7/18 I think I'm going to start playing those numbers in the lottery.

Btw, congrats!

Thanks again everyone! :)

Awwww! How incredibly cute!

The newest pics reminded me of something about looking at babies, especially your own: When they sleep, they're like cute little angels, but when they're looking at you, they're positively mesmerizing!

Congratulations! Holy smokes, how did I miss this back in July?

Wow! That's a fine build you've got there. Looks outfitted with a high quality gruppo, and we know the mechanics will do a good job keeping everything tuned and lubes and properly adjusted.
Here's wishing you many happy miles.

I think the dog has resigned to it's fate as a pillow. :)
