Early Christmas present

Not to steal Lawnmowerman's thunder or anger the phantom hate mailer but...

Got the news last night that Mrs. Ballboy is having our first child in August.

Moderately unexpected but greatly anticipated.

I guess this puts my plans of getting back into collecting on hold for a bit.

Just thought I would share.

Happy Holidays everyone.

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

    No George or Brett. She's originally from Indy so I'm fighting the "There's no way in hel we're naming him Peyton" battle.

    I am in Indy, and yes, my son is named Peyton.

    However, he was born before Manning ever became a Colt. But you can imagine the number of kids around here that are a couple years younger than him that are named Peyton.

    The bright side is that although Peyton was drafted by Indy, at least he's a stud.

    I'm just glad I didn't name my son Ryan Leaf.
