Son Of Grim Reaper- has already come:)

Grim · Sun 18/04/2010 21:55:04

Hey, I know it's got nothing to do with AGS... but I just wanted to share with my favourite community that my partner's water just broke and we'll be heading to the hospital any minute now...

I am obviously very excited:) I know I shouldn't be posting now, but I'm waiting for the midwife to arrive anyway.. and just needed to tell someone. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

This is what he looked like few months ago:

I will post another (screen)shot when he's out. Hopefully later tonight:)

Oh, the plan is to call him Gabriel, as in Gabriel Knight:) I hope his mother doesn't change her mind! I tried Guybrush...but she just wouldn't have it:)

Good luck! Fingers crossed!

LRH · Sun 18/04/2010 22:32:01

Excellent! Best of luck and congratulations

Stupot · Sun 18/04/2010 22:55:27

Great News Grim. All the best :-)
(Maybe just call him Guy, which is quite normal, and then Brush could be his middle name )

Hey hey!! Congrats!! You said soon just some days, I didn;t realize it was THAT soon! I'm happy for you!! She didn't really like the Dualnames as a name for your son, did she? Cause you kind of promised.

Jim Reed · Sun 18/04/2010 23:07:23

He looks just like you!

Congrats, and best wishes

Igor Hardy · Sun 18/04/2010 23:14:29

Brilliant name! But at home you should call him simply Son of Grim Reaper.

Best of luck and congratulations!

So fun to see guys lose their cool when a baby is on the way. Hope you had a good night's rest, not gonna be one any time soon. Best of luck.

Good luck man, I hope it all goes smoothly!

Thanks for the comments:) ( and a cool picture:))

Here he is. It was incredible.....I won't even attempt to describe what birth is- you have to witness it to really understand....

It was a long and tough ride. Three days of pain and suffering... and then he finally decided to come out. I saw him take his first breath. I cut his umbilical cord. That was weird but also great in the same time... And as he lied on his mothers chest for the first time everything sort of subsided around us, went really really quiet, as if all the terrible things that went on for hours never happened. It was unbelievable, the strange power this little man had to put an end to all that chaos and shut everyone up!

Well, his name is Gabriel and he's awesome. He will probably be a great man when he grows up, but my advice to him will always resemble this from Lynard Skynard's song "Simple Man":

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul
And you can do this baby, if you try
All that I want for you my son is to be satisfied

And be a simple kind of man
Be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son if you can?

Boy, don't you worry you'll find yourself
Follow your heart and nothing else
And you can do this baby, if you try
All that I want for you my son is to be satisfied

Well, anyway... here he is. A strange little man who one day will change the world ( and if he doesn't, hopefully he'll still be satisfied:) I know I will):

He's so cute I just wanna squeeze him till his head pops off.

Congrats and good luck for the future!

Chicky · Wed 21/04/2010 23:48:28

That's a lovely photo Grim, super congrats!

Domino · Thu 22/04/2010 00:53:58

Just thought I would stop by and say congratulations on the baby.

Happy Baby Day to you.

Dualnames · Thu 22/04/2010 00:55:45

And the guy is still sane and gameworthy, is all I have to say!

Congrats on the cute baby I heard crying.

Domino · Thu 22/04/2010 01:17:11

After looking at that baby pic for a few seconds...it might not be yours.

I think CJ may be the father.

Sorry to break the bad news to you.

Dualnames · Thu 22/04/2010 02:11:32

Also, great song you chose. I'd definitely would go for Classic Rock. Beatles are always a favorite. Here comes the sun(homonym=son)

Jim Reed · Thu 22/04/2010 12:34:57

Yay, now when he grows up to about 30 years, maybe he'll see h2g2 and Leitors edge released. =P
Congrats man, the baby looks real cuddly and cute and small and cuddly.
Now we'll await your first diaper changing day =P

tzachs · Thu 22/04/2010 19:22:11

Congratulations Grim

I guess your next game will be less blood and gore, and more cute purple dinosaours...

No, you're wrong there! CJ's baby looks like this:
