    Nice collection of photographs. I love the one of your wife holding the baby blanket.

    It is an amazing life changing experience. Best of luck... Get some sleep while you still can...mwink.gif

    Best wishes to you, your wife and soon to be child. Hang on... It is a wild ride. :D

    The good Karma obviously worked, We had a baby girl at 5:30 this evening, she weighed in at 7lb 8oz. Mum and "Eve" are both doing great and hope to be home in the morning.

    Thanks everyone, what a great community this is clap.gifclap

    AAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWW! I told you that you were getting a great photo op!

    Now you gotta get the nurses to clean up the background a bit, take the water pitcher out. The little people in PS could probably do that. Mom and baby both look wonderful!

    good photo, too!

    Congratulations on a job well done. Thanks so much for sharing your photos and for letting us know that Eve successfully made her way into the world. Mom and baby look well content. I'll bet the photographer is too! I'm looking forward to lots of pictures of little Eve as she grows. Best wishes to the Gubbs family.

    Congratulations Gubbsclap.gif. That is a wonderful picture of Mrs. and baby Gubbs. But with a subject like those two it would be hard to get anything but a spectaular photo. I wish you all the luck in the world with the new family and would like to thank you for including us in this life defining moment for you.

    P.S. where's the picture of the happy father holding his newborn girl?

    I am still back thinking about Gubbs buying her her first camera now. And if she is our baby, well, it wouldn't be too much trouble for me to take "care" of it for her, try out new models, etc. until she is old enough to hold it. Then I would be glad to use a ticket to come to England and watch her shoot photos as a toddler. (I did that with my grandson, in fact, with several grandchildren, they are so proud at that age.........)

    The fact of my familiarity, through use, of the camera should only be an asset in the photographic interaction.

    Gubbs and mrs Gubbs, you all can photograph Eve taking her first photos.

    Congratulations Gubbs and Erin. Beautiful pictures of both mother and baby. Keep on posting shots of the baby we we can watch her grow. It's just like being a grandma again, for me.

    My son and his wife had a baby boy on September 7 and I have not seen the baby yet. They live in Connecticut and I'm in California. I just keep begging for pictures. I will be making a trip soon.

    So, I'm excited for you folks too. I love babies. iloveyou.gif
