New member of my family, hopefully a future reefer

Post by Xster »

On Tuesday at approx. 1:37 PM, my wife Thuy (Twee) gave birth to a beautiful son, Alexander Wayne Nguyen. (Had to keep my middle name :lol: ). Both of doing extremely well. Had to do a C-Section as the baby was very stressed (dropping heart beat rate) during all contractions. Doctors wanted a better chance of a healthy baby. It worked, but our chances of having another are way slimmer now. Wife is still recovering from surgery. Wish her well. :D

This is the reason I have not been online lately. Sorry about not responding to PMs and emails, they will be answered very shortly. I have been extremely busy with setting up many things for Alex and also keeping up with work.

Congratulations John! How's it feel to be a dad? Pictures of the boy would be nice. What are you going to call him Alex or Wayne?
Wanted: to set up a tank again.

I can see it now, everyone is going to start calling him "lil wayne." Hopefully it won't catch on, sounds too much like a rapper. But I would prefer Alex. :)

Hey now what wrong with a little rapper ? We call my son "The troll", and he earns it.

Thanks for everyone's encouraging words and compliments. As you asked here are the pictures. They are very sucky pics.
