My wife and I heard the heartbeat on Wednesday, so I guess it's safe to announce that we're having a baby.
I'm not nervous at all, thanks in part to the pages and pages of fatherly advice I've absorbed from my fellow RedsZoners.
The baby is due in September. I'll post a picture of Ken Griffey Jr. Footstool soon after. Rest assured, he/she will be wearing a baby-sized Reds hat in the photo (the same hat Papa Johnny Footstool wore when he was a toddler back in 1975).

Congratulations, Johnny! You are in for life's most wonderful ride. Don't let the sun set on any day without realizing how fortunate you are to be chosen for life's most important undertaking!
The child will be raised by a Reds/Bengals fan, so he/she already has a leg up in life.
Help stamp out, eliminate, and do away with redundancy.

That combination might not be good for the guitar with the little feller is about two years old! Don't give it both at once!Originally Posted by Johnny Footstool

Go Gators!
I'll go cheap on the first few guitars.

Congrats Johnny (and Mrs.) Babies are great. Enjoy every age and stage.
Oh, and sleep now, cause come Sept, you won't!!
Will trade this space for a #1 starter.
Outstanding work, Johnny.
Well done.

Work??? I'm sure it was a chore for him.

It's nice when you can enjoy your craft.

Ditto what Creek said. I haven't really slept since my son was born in '00.
That's not so bad, though- I probably slept too much anyway. At home, under my desk at work, at Bengals games...
Being a dad is a lot of work, and it has changed the way I live, and I'm a better man for it. Joy to you and best of luck!
Next Reds manager, second shooter. --Confirmed on Redszone.
Makes all the routine posts.
Nothing to see here. Please disperse.
Congratulation Johnny and Mrs. Johnny! I've got #2 on the way, arrival date in August.
Wear gaudy colors, or avoid display. Lay a million eggs or give birth to one. The fittest shall survive, yet the unfit may live. Be like your ancestors or be different. We must repeat!
omitted... bad joke about a #2 on the way.
Congrats to Johnny and Mrs. Stool.
Be sure to let us know when Mrs. Stool has #2 on the way...
See there I go again.
Stick to your guns.
