My Daughter born on Thursday
McLannahan - 22/8/10 at 07:36 PM

I'm not a very public person but just proud to announce the birth of our baby daughter.

It'll mean more to those (unlucky) people who've met me but hey...proud parent alert and all that jazz....

Me and my first born daughter.

Oh and the best of luck to everyone else expecting soon - I know there was a few of us!


I've already shown her KC, she didn't seem very interested. Hopefully she'll reconsider her interest shown...

Congrats!! isn't it a strange feeling??!!

unfortunatley my wife being greedy decided to have 2 at once!!!


Howlor - 22/8/10 at 07:44 PM

Congrats, ours is 3 weeks old tomorrow. I think I have single handedly funded the Red Bull teams next race!

You wait 'till she's older.
Took my little girl (just 4) to nursery in my kitcar.
She was grinnig from ear to ear, all the way there

Congratulations to both you AND your wife (who did ALL the hard work). I trust that both Mother and daughter are doing well.

Thanks all

In my defence I'm recovering (badly) from a broken arm and wrist and it's not helping but yes - she's had a rough few days!


Daddylonglegs - 22/8/10 at 08:23 PM

Congrats to you both

It's gotta be the best feeling in the world I reckon, both my boys had me grinning like an idiot for weeks after they were born. Now they make me grimmace! lol! (only joking, both very handsome and decent chaps).

So, bring on the sleepless nights now then?

BTW, the missus has just reminded me, hope the car is finished mate otherwise it's gonna wait a looooong time

Congratulations

I remember my first, also a daughter but it over 20 years ago

Enjoy them while they are young as they only cost you more and more the older they get, but you still wouldnt change a thing.

Im still a proud dad 20 years on


franky - 22/8/10 at 08:47 PM

congratulations

I'm 5 months into my first too, its awesome.


Fozzie - 22/8/10 at 08:57 PM

Awwww that's an awesome picture....

I had a pink one first, followed by two blue ones....absolutely blessed!!! .......

I hope Mrs McLannahan is doing ok ......

Soooooo what have you called your new daughter....and what did she weigh?

Oh...and........

Congratulations

Fozzie..............


McLannahan - 22/8/10 at 09:08 PM

Thanks Fozzie!

It's always a question women want to know isn't it, the weight?!

She was 7.6 and her name is Gwendoline Jennifer McLannahan.

Wife's doing well thanks, still in a bit of pain after the C section and complaining about the size of her boobs!

Congratulations to you both.

I'll vouch for the above. My son will be 21 this year and my daughter has just turned 18. We are just finishing weekend number two of three weekends of celebrations for her eighteenth which has included a trip to London, several meals out, a limo trip to the races and finishes next weekend with a private room at a club.
You'll be a long time skint but it's all worth it!!

ETA - Oh, and no lad will ever be good enough for her!!

Fozzie - 22/8/10 at 09:20 PM

Awwww lovely name and a good bonny weight....yes, us girls 'have' to know those details........

Painful boobs.... send her my commiserations.......that was the worst bit....I remember it well!......

I hope Mrs McL recovers well, and don't let her lift anything too heavy for a while......

Fozzie

She'll not get far without opening her eyes! Still....probably a better driver than her father!

I guess it kind of is already! Hopefully I'll get back into the garage and get cracking on with KC again so I can take her out in him.
