Congratulations Irish...

You better start going to bed early and begin to stockpile the Z's...

You're going to need them. :D

Congrats! You are about to be introduced to a whole new world of excitement.
"What do you mean by projectile diarria?"

"Why did you shove a bean up your nose?"

"You swallowed a dime? AGAIN!!!"

"Dad, is this part of the car important?"
Actually that last line was something I did. But my daughter hit a telephone pole with the minivan before she got out of diapers. NEVER leave the car running when the kid is in carseat.

Congrats...I think.
Welcome to the "F'd" up world of parenting. Dirty diapers, little stains, no sleep, more worries, stress, cuteness, weird pictures, animal envy, spankings, etc. A wise man once said, "Children are the only pets you can have a giggle and a head ache all in the same 10 minut span."
Remember 2 very important things.

1 Always make the wife/ girl happy, if she is happy you will never be angry.

2 You are always her go to guy when it comes to doing anything. Especially when it comes to the baby.
Congrats again...oh yeah get used to watching kid shows, and be prepared to watch ones you don't want to. Kids seem to watch crap that keeps them quiet, and you will let them just so it is quiet.

I always tell new dads this little tip. It will save you many times in the first 3 years. Call it what you want the "Shit happens emergency kit" The "Daddy saves the day kit" Put one in each car trunk.
Put some wipes in a zip lock sandwich bag. Put that bag in a gallon size zip lock bag with at least 2 extra diapers and a change of clothes for the kid and a T shirt for you and a bottle of drinking water. Hand sanitizer DON'T forget the hand sanitizer!
One time my son had a blow out in his diaper at a department store. All over a display and me. The wife had used all the diapers on that trip. She looked at me in horror! I pulled the don't worry, I'll handle it, you keep shopping. Went to the car cleaned up the little poop monkey, changed my shirt. Put the dirty stuff in the bag. When she came out we were chilling happy in the car clean as a whistle.
Stuff like that will happen and if you can deal with it with out adding stress to your lady's day. You will win some good daddy points in her book.

Buster's made a great point about the "good daddy points". Make sure you always have a surplus of those and things will go extra smooth. :)
