Ok. I'm roughly 6 weeks late but I finally got some pictures upload to my pc.

On May 24th, my first daughter Natalie Thi Strain was born at 3:45 pm.
My wife Mylinh started having contractions at around 10 pm on may 23rd and went through 14 grueling hours of labor that inevitably ended up in a c-section due to complications. :eww: (Pelvis too small)

Anyway our little bundle of joy was born healthy with a full head of hair and we're still getting used to life as parents.

For whoever is not a parent I can assure you that it is a completely amazing experience and well worth any trial you may face during.

Here's some pics of Natalie

The scraggly, scrawny, tired looking bloke in yellow is me and my wife is in the background.

Nice video and pics, man. Belated congratulations to you as well. Your daughter is simply adorable.

Natalie was 7 pounds, 9 oz. when she was born.

I, on the other hand, was a 10 lb baby.

Complications are bound to happen when you mix germans and asians... :joke:

It's funny. Her family thinks she looks like me. My family thinks she looks like Mylinh.

AWWWWWWWW! :D
Congratulations to you both on such a beautiful baby! You chose well to avoid the dreaded Winston Churchill Ugly White Baby syndrome. Glad to hear all three of you are doing well! :)
