The last pic is one taken at last year’s home opener for the UAB Blazers and the first two were taken this past Saturday.
My observations?
1) Mere’s new camera has much less suck than her old one.
2) The crowd looked bigger for this year’s home opener.
3) I look pre-pubescent without facial hair when I’m wearing a hat.
4) I think my wife’s face is thinner after she gave birth to our child, how awesome is that?!
Oh, and
5)My baby is cute as hell….
My second installment of HNT, and I’m falling back on my family again….
My daughter is not even a week old and she already has Half-Nekkid pictures of herself on the internet….
*sigh*

For those of you w/o children, the peeling skin is a normal thing for full term babies.

Fairlyn arrived at 12:40 PM CDT today (July 22nd, 2005), weighing in at 7 lbs, 1 oz and 20 inches in length.
Here’s a few pics taken before she even got a proper bath (and I’m crossing my fingers that PBase has all of their problems from the other day worked out):
Mom and baby both are doing GREAT!
I am consistently impressed with my wife’s ability to take a situation by the nads and own it.
Today, she did not disappoint. She pushed through the pain during the first 3 or so hours, and after the epidural (thank God for those things), she was a pro! 3 hours later we were meeting our new daughter.
Fairlyn has been pretty content so far, feeding for about 20 minutes about 30 minutes after birth, and then again here recently for about 40 minutes. She has fussed very little (knock on wood) and she hasn’t slept nearly as much as I thought she would….
We’ll keep you updated!
Well, I’m going to try and participate in this new found debauchery called Half-Nekkid Thursday (HNT). As most things go on the Internet, I heard it from somebody, who heard it from somebody, who actually started it…..
Well, since I’m not that important right now, my first HNT will be of my beautiful wife who will give birth to our first child tomorrow.
Enjoy:
We took a few more pictures that are more like three-fourths nekkid, but those are for our daughter to find when she’s like 15 so that she’ll be supremely warped (if she already isn’t before hand). 
We took a visit to the OB-GYN this morning, and Fairlyn will make her debut appearance this Friday!
We’re going to start encouraging her to make her way in to the world around 5 in the morning (for some strange reason, doctors like to do stuff like this really early in the morning).
Wish Brandi luck, and throw some patience my way if you get a chance.
