That sounds like an intestinal problem. How about "another Myler," though that is kind of scary. Is the world ready for another Myler?? I veto Myler Redux. That sounds like an intestinal problem. How about “another Myler,” though that is kind of scary. Is the world ready for another Myler??

Or, Myler Redux. Mom, that is not a great idea. That is, in fact, a terrible idea. Thanks John. If I can work out a deal with the baby whereby it cries when only Mom is around, I think that will grease the skids for our relationship. I am a fan of calling the baby Myler II. Or, Myler Redux.

We have a great refrigerator magnet that says "Trust yourself, you know more than you think you do." The quote is from Dr. Spock (the baby manual guy, not the Vulcan), and your Mom gave us that magnet before we were even married, I think. How odd is that?! But those words will be helpful to keep in mind. I look back on the last 17.5 months and think, "Hey, this hasn't been all that tough after all." But I still have those moments (to this day) where I also say "My baby. Holy cow." Don’t worry, Drew — the anxiety will pass.

We had a girl name, but no boy name-so Jane picked Jehosephat. How shall we refer to the Myler bambino? While Ella was in utero, we called her Ella Jehosephat.

I think you have a good start because you have the gift of story telling and making people laugh. You can learn the rest of the Dad stuff along the way. Congrats to you and your wife. Great news man!
