So I'm going to be a Dad...

Damned faulty condoms. I'm already poor to begin with! WTF?













Just kidding!













Just when I thought it would never happen to me, I'm proud to say that I'm going to be a Dad to a baby girl soon! She is due next month on July 22nd and I'm stoked already. My partner in crime is awesome and this weekend I'm hosting a baby shower for her.

I thought I'd tell you guys. That is all…carry on.

This is wonderful news!

Good luck with fatherhood.

Try to stop smiling in a few weeks. No point in doing it now.

Well, it is not your fault that condoms are leaked or broken. It happened if you are not careful to see if there is any cut or slit on the condoms. But now I see that you are really happy to be a father to a baby girl coming soon next month.

Congratulation on your fatherhood. Just be there for your woman and your baby girl. Like the other Aders, I would love to see the picture of your daughter when she will be born soon. Take care and try to relax. Having a baby or child is going to be a bumpy road for you to take care of. So enjoy being with the baby.

Congratulations, Alex! The only downside is that from now on you will wake up the roosters.
