Talking Something Else To Take My Time & Money Away From Reefing

I found out 2 weeks ago and we had our 1st sonogram yesterday. I am going to be a DAD. Due date is the last week of June. Well at least I may be able to sneak some more reef stuff in the house when carrying in the diapers & stuff.

So this is 1 of the things that will be taking up my time from the PR position, oh I also started the Stony Brook University project CEWIT. On top of that I am preparing to run for Lieutenant of my fire company.

Congrats on the new baby! My wife is due the end of January and I'm trying to buy everything I can now because it all changes when the baby comes!

Congrats indeed! What a blessing. Set up a rocker in front of your tank and enjoy both. And when your baby is old enough to start enjoying the reef with you, it is all the better--I bring my son (he's 3 now) with me to meetings and LFS all the time and he loves it. My partner .

Great news for you both!
Christine

Congrats Eric

Christine is right about setting up chair in front of the tank I used to do that with my daughter. Now she has her own seahorse tank, and lays claims to my reef tank

Sure, if we can't invite or entice new people to join LIRA, maybe we can just breed them

Thanks guys, I really look fwd to it. My wife liked the rocker idea, she said "at least then you won't be down there by yourself"
