Title: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Andrew on April 20, 2003, 09:31:24 PM My daughter was born today at 1352 hours. She is 8 pounds and 7 ounces, both Katie and her are at the hospital and doing just fine.
At one point during the delivery, Katie punched me for being me. I did have her laughing when I expressed worry that the placenta was going to attack me (the doctor didn't get the b-movie joke). This has been the best day of my life. Tiring, watching my wife "PUSH!" and helping as best I could by bracing one of her feet and talking to her, but amazing. Katie did all the work and is very tired - she and Jenna were sleeping when I left the hospital - but I looked into my daughter's sleepy eyes and everything else seems trivial in comparison to today. Title: Congrats!! Post by: Ash on April 20, 2003, 10:06:52 PM Congratulations!!
Welcome to fatherhood! Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Fearless Freep on April 20, 2003, 11:44:17 PM Congratulations, Andrew!

Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: onionhead on April 21, 2003, 12:34:22 AM As the father of three girls, let me welcome you to the best/worst/happiest/saddest days of your life. A mixed bag to be sure, but I assure you from here on out you will be wondering what life was like before they came along. Congrats, and God bless.

Brother R Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Mofo Rising on April 21, 2003, 03:25:45 AM I too would also like to add my congratulations.
Just think, now you have somebody to watch THE NEVERENDING STORY III with. Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Squishy on April 21, 2003, 04:29:55 AM "Just think, now you have somebody to watch THE NEVERENDING STORY III with."
You know, Mofo, while it may seem funny to try and lure Andrew into such a horrible act of child abuse, you're leaving yourself open to being charged as an accessory. :) Congratulations, Andrew! Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: akiratubo on April 21, 2003, 05:23:54 AM 8 lbs, 7 oz? Good work, Andrew! ;)
Title: Congratulations, big man. Post by: Nathan Shumate on April 21, 2003, 08:45:05 AM Welcome to the Wonderful World of Progeny. Take every opportunity to lie on the couch and have her sleep on your chest. It's a terrific feeling. (And your wife can't get after you for taking a nap because, hey, you're taking care of the baby.)

Title: Daddy, can I watch a movie? Post by: Cool Tester on April 21, 2003, 12:42:55 PM Congratulations Andrew!
Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Damien01 on April 21, 2003, 12:48:36 PM Congrats!
My godchild is 3 1/2 years old and so far I'm having fun letting her watch movies like Empire of the Ants, Swarm, Rats (She loves that movie)... also movies that she loves are Scooby-Doo live action movie, Harry Potter, Rose Red, XXX (Van Desel movie)... Yes, I'm a very evil Godfather/Uncle... HeHeHeHe... Movies that she hates... Shrek, Home Alone and Home Alone 2 Title: Fantastic News! Post by: Gerry on April 21, 2003, 01:06:26 PM I'm thrilled to hear Katie and Jenna are doing well.
Your life will never be the same you know... (It wasn't the placenta you needed to worry about.) Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Andrew Crow on April 21, 2003, 04:03:53 PM My man, congratu-f**king-lations! Kids are fun. Just be sure to not screw her up too bad with your movies, okay?
Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Evan3 on April 21, 2003, 04:35:55 PM Yay for Andrew. Congratulations, or coming from a Jew, Mazel Tov.
Its good to know there is an heir to this site, it will be here for my kids!!!! Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Kirk on April 21, 2003, 06:14:36 PM Congratulations!
As a father of three teenage girls, let me welcome you to the Redneck Psycho Dad club. Because as a guy, you remember how teenage guys think and you realize that you must now be the goalie and keep those horny bastards away from your dughters. I've found that showing videotapes of my IDPA competitions (Stock Service Pistol division) makes for very well-behaved respectful young men. Kirk Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Pete B6K on April 21, 2003, 06:29:01 PM Congratulations Andrew.
Now if you take her for a stroll in the park, and she misbehaves, don't be tempted to slam her against iron posts or throw swings at her face. Pete Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: lonecorndog on April 21, 2003, 07:03:49 PM Congratulations! There is nothing more wonderful in life. I have a three-year old (named Andrew, but a coincidence), and another on the way. Even when the rest of life sucks, Andrew still makes me smile. Enjoy fatherhood.
Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: systemcr4sh on April 21, 2003, 09:09:04 PM i probably can't say anything that hasn't been said but Congradu-freaking-lations!
Thats awesome news! Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: JohnL on April 21, 2003, 10:23:06 PM Congratulations.
Of course you realize that when she gets to be a teenager and starts dating, all those teen sex comedies and slasher films are going to come back and haunt you... :) Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Riot on April 22, 2003, 12:21:09 AM Congrates on the multiply man. Long time reader (four years now I think) I never messaged before But I love this place. And I am very glad to see yer multiplying.
Congrates again. "I was laun Chaney's lover" www,angelfire.com/ego2/sfw/riotreport.html Title: Many thanks! Post by: Andrew on April 22, 2003, 12:48:54 AM Many thanks to everyone, and I look forward to all the challenges. This is our first, so we have a nice learning curve ahead, though Katie is taking to motherhood with gusto. Right now both Katie and Jenna are asleep in our room. I'm going to slip in and join them for a nap.
The little one will probably grow used to me rocking her while jotting down notes for a review with my free hand. We'll have to see which movies she likes, when she gets older. There has to be something in the collection that will carry her along like her father, be it a Harryhausen Sinbad movie, "Nausicaa," or "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes." Someday, when Jenna tells me how mean her mother is, we will watch "Mommie Dearest" so that she knows how good she has it. Title: Re: Many thanks! Post by: J.C. on April 22, 2003, 04:11:26 AM Huge Congrats to you and your wife, Andrew! Know this is running a little late, but just wanted to express my sincere good wishes to your family for many, many happy years ahead of you together. :)
Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Foywonder on April 22, 2003, 07:37:20 AM Better late than never but congrats on the baby.
Title: Same thing here Andrew Post by: Skaboi on April 22, 2003, 08:13:13 AM My wife and I recently had a daughter (Apr. 12), and I can really relate to how great of a feeling it is to be a father. It's amazing when your daughter looks at you for the first time with her beautiful little eyes.....
I'm getting veclempt. :) Title: Re: Same thing here Andrew Post by: Neville on April 22, 2003, 09:13:35 AM Congratulations!
Title: Re: Same thing here Andrew Post by: ErikJ on April 22, 2003, 09:58:47 AM As I sit here with my 2 year old daughter(Home from work with a groin pull) I feel for you 2. The wealth of childrens programs on is enough to scare anyone. Gone are the days of Barney. Now we have the Teletubbies (induced but LSD use I'm sure). But to me even more frightening is a group of guys from New Zealand who call themselves the Wiggles. "BE AFRAID! BE VERY AFRAID!" But I can't think of a better way to spend my time then sharing it with my daughter.
Again Congrats to you 2. Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Dr. X, Yyz, Sr. . on April 22, 2003, 12:07:48 PM Congratulations!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS! Katie, I'm glad the placenta didn't swallow your husband. Andrew where is Jenna's picture? We would like to see her.... Congratulations to the joy of your lives. John & Billie Akima Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Newt on April 26, 2003, 12:16:29 PM Congratulations!

Now all you need is a kidz section to www.badmovies.org...... Title: Re: Jenna Borntreger! Post by: Shounen Kakumei Pikachu on April 29, 2003, 12:34:00 AM yeah....have reviews of Power Rangers movies, the Sailor Moon dub movies and Neverending Story II and III ready for them.
