I wanted to leave a bit of a shout out to you guys about my sudden absence and share a bit of joyous news!
In early February my wife and I were informed she was having severe complications due to high blood pressure during her pregnancy. We thought she'd go on bed rest, but we found out in just 24 hours it was worse then what we had first been told. The missus was hospitalized for thr duration and I pretty much moved into the hospital myself.
Well after several long weeks we endured (mostly her) 48 hours of induced labor and fished off with a bit of surgery. We were warned all along that our daughter would likely have trouble her first few weeks and were prepared for the worst.
Instead she came out perfect! No breathing trouble or feeding trouble!

Momma did great! Ms. Hayden is a bit tiny, but otherwise perfect. Anyhow I'll try to jump back in game here soonish, but I know I dropped off the map and had a few things resting on my plate.
I miss you guys and shall share my current entertainment. Our dog figured out she is demoted. .
