Is it too late to make her middle name "Diesel"? Well I guess you'd need the feminine form, which is what?...........Dieselina? Dieselia? Yeah, I like the sound of that!

Congrats!

Congratulations!! Welcome to the club Rusty.

Sleep when she sleeps and write things down so you can remember all the little details for the photo albums. Also expect poop to be a frequent topic.

I was expecting to see some pics of a CD.

Time to car shop for her 16th birthday! You can take care of it for a few years, and I'm sure wifey will agree.

I have a son and 2 daughters and let me tell you, you are certainly going to enjoy that father/daughter bond. It is awesome, as is your little girl.
Congrats!!

Oh yeah, not so much fun when they start dating, but you've got a while so we won't bring that up......
