Hello World - a special NBD

Hi folks,

as promised during the last OM I am more than happy (actually no words could describe this feeling!) to say ā€œHello Worldā€ on behalf of my beautiful new born son. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :heart_eyes:

May I introduce you to Vincent Emanuel:

On October 22nd around noon I heard the most beautiful noise there is on earth: the first cry of my baby - it was quite impressive how loud it was for such a tiny human being. :sweat_smile: Funnily enough, he came the exact same size and weight I was at my birth.

On Friday, we were released from hospital and now getting used to our new life. It probably will take a while, though. :sweat_smile:

Until now, Vincent is quite a relaxed and easy going dude with a good appetite (thus keeping me quite busy all day). :rofl: Only the nights are getting rocky when the little boy tries to process what has happend the whole day and still getting used to this world outside. So my husband and I are quite sleep-deprived, but still as happy as can be. So all in all quite normal. :smiley:

I didnā€™t play guitar for him, yet, but really looking forward to it and his reaction. But so far, there are so many things to take care of and getting used to, it probably will take a few days more until then.

With that, I also want to thank you, good peeps of the JG-community! So many of you were taking interest in my pregnancy and upcoming birth, even reaching out directly and asking how I am. So sorry I didnā€™t reply personally, yet! Itā€™s something I appreciate so much, how much we all care for each other and thatā€™s why I thought of sharing the biggest moment of my life with all of you. :heart:

And now, Iā€™m trying to catch some sleepā€¦ wish me good luck! :rofl: :sleeping:

See, I was leaning towards a Gretsch. A Les Paul of course, is always acceptable

Herzlichen GlĆ¼ckwunsch zum Geburtstag, Vincent! :tada: :gift: :birthday:
(Oh, and to you too, of course, Lisa :wink:)
Parenthood must have changed a lot if you have time to do social media in the first week :open_mouth:
Careful this thread doesnā€™t morph into The Vincent Show, as we all follow him growing up :rofl:
