BIG NEWS:

My girlfriend is getting induced tomorrow at 5 A.M.

Therefore, I will have a son at some point tomorrow. Looks like Nate's coming out.

I will send everyone updates as they come along.

[_Laurie_]

Awesome!

[MarcM]

Exciting news for you! I am sure it will all go well and your life will be changed forever! You are going to dig being a dad!

[skybluesky]

Little Nate better damn come out with a beard. And smoking a pipe. Then he would be the BEST BABY EVER

[Lucky]

The best to all the three of you Rocky! Omg, this is kind of exciting. We're having a new SF baby! We should have had a baby pool.

[edna]

Congrats to the Raccoons!!

[Jenny]

Congratulations, Rocky. We Scorpios are awesome! Anyway, it will be overwhelming and life changing, but also very rewarding. Be supportive, patient and most of all, be happy.

Update so far:

Got a little bit of down time right now. Not for long though. She's dilated about 3-4 cm. Got some epidural, now we're just waiting for Nate to pop on out.

Updates will be fed as time is available!

[Uncle Joe]

Go Nate...go!

Go Nate...go!

He's born!

Nathaniel Lennon Palmer was born at 7:19 P.M. He's 6 lbs. 11 oz. I'll post pictures as soon as I can.

Interesting thing I noticed: He's 6 lbs. 11 oz., born 19:19 P.M., 19 inches long, born on the 9th. Seems like 6 and 9 are his lucky numbers. You know who else's lucky numbers those were? John Lennon.

[Shawna]

let's not leave off that lucky eleven... 11 ounces, born in the 11th month. Seems to me he's got more than just 2 lucky numbers!

Congratulations, daddy. Life as you know it has changed completely and beyond anything you'll ever be able to fathom.

On the other end of the parenting spectrum, my daughter, my youngest, passed her driver's test yesterday and is now a licensed driver...yikes.

[miamisammy29]

Congratulations, Rocky...

...oh, and I guess to you, too, Ron

Geez, MORE women on the road? Oy!

[MarcM]

Welcome to the world, Nate!

[Lucky]

Woohoo! Welcome to the newest little songfactor, Nate! Congratulations Rocky, to you and to the baby mama. And congrats to little Nate .... I think he's got himself an extra special daddy.

[Shawna]

as soon as he shows a modicum of motor skills, stick the keyboard under his hand and let him bang out a personal message to us.

[RockyRaccoon]

Here's a picture of Nate right after he popped out and was put on the incubator.

[skybluesky]

You know, if old Nate had waited until today he would have been born on Psych season five second half premiere day and could have been named Longbranch Pennywhistle Palmer. Or Pierre Despeareaux Palmer.

[Lucky]

Awww, how adorable, brand spanking new. But why do you men love those first messy pictures so much? Bring that boy back when he's had a bath so we can really see him.

[RockyRaccoon]

Here's a couple other pictures. A little cleaner

[Lucky]

Now that is an angel. I'm about to shed a grandmotherly tear here. How's mom? Please tell her that a bunch of people she doesn't know wish her the best, and congrats on a great job. You guys do good work.

[Uncle Joe]

Nate's awesome! Congratulations to the both of you.

[RockyRaccoon]

Thanks! Baby mama is doing well. Still kind of tired, but overall good. I can barely get time with the baby, she keeps hogging him haha. But after all she went through to pop him out, I figure she deserves it
