The first 6 months were horrible.

After that it’s been amazing and fun. My son just turned 1. It’s absolutely enjoyable now.

Also, try tying his right hand behind his back during the day. It’s done wonders for my son’s left handed accuracy.

I've thought about the hand thing for basketball. He will be light years ahead of the other kids if he can dribble to either side.

Congrats man, lets hope for a successful delivery with no complications. Cherish everything. My daughter is 16 months and it seems she learns something new everyday. One day she's too scared to walk without holding someones hand, then the next she just gets up and walks around on her own. It goes by fast and is amazing to watch as they start learning to do something new literally every day.

Watching them learn is the best thing. Just wait until she shocks you by counting to five...and then 10. Every morning when I get little man ready for "school" (daycare), I always say, "Give me your right foot," and, "Give me your left foot," when putting on his socks and shoes. One early evening, out of the blue as I'm putting a pull-up on him, he looks down, points, and says, "My right foot," and, "My left foot," and he was right! So, we started on hands. Every once in a while, he'll get it wrong when I ask him randomly, but he's got it for the most part. His memory amazes me.

Our son will be 3 in just over a month. This past Halloween and Christmas were the best yet. Old enough to show his personality so that you know just what costume is perfect for them, and old enough to rip open presents on his own. This season has been awesome.

Have real discussions with them early on. Show them the beauty of the outdoors. Instill a weird bias towards a number.

Wow, how did I miss this thread when it was posted? Well, congratulations!

Lots of good advice in this thread so I'm not sure what I could add. I'll just agree with the point that they are all different. I have two young men that are 26 & 22 years old and a daughter that is 17 and their personalities could not have been more different. I've been through the roughest parts and came out on the other side to say that I feel as though Mrs. Lzen and I have raised 3 good people. Of course, being a parent never stops, even when they are grown.

Good luck and remember to enjoy the moments because they will be grown and out of the house before you know it.

For the 6-12 months, don't "stock up" on diapers. You'll see that them lil fuggers outgrow a size what seems like once a month until they "normalize".

I think we went through like a case size a month until like size 5.

yep, if I ever buy diapers for new parents, I always get them 5s.

Our little man was in size 3 for quite a while, and then in size 5 even longer. Currently in 3T-4T pull-ups. Potty training has been a slow process.

The nights are long, but the years are short.

Whatever your wife needs (or wants) for the next two months, make sure she has it, and I mean whatever.

Never be too manly to accept help when you need it - it takes a village sometimes.

Expect the unexpected.

His first goose-egg will scare the shit out of you. Don't freak. He'll be okay.

For the toddler years: blue Dawn dish soap as pre-soak for stains on clothes.

Lots of good advice in here, so I am going to keep it simple and say to remember 2 things:

1) The most valuable thing you have to provide him is your time.

2) He will learn most things in life by watching mom and dad. Whether that is how to treat your wife, treat other people, how to love, how to parent, how to work, how to dress, etc...... He will grow up to be the person you've shown him to be.

Congrats... I'm a dad of 14 and 11 year old boys. Love it, best part of life. Two pieces of advice.

1.) Be present, if possible be present and involved.
2.) My wife has a saying she picked up somewhere... "We are raising adults not kids." Enjoy the present stage of life and always be preparing them for the next.

Bonus: Diapers for the first month are horrid!! You've been warned.
