Lots of great advice here, but one thing I’d add is pick them up & hold them every chance you get. One day that will happen for the last time without you knowing…

Enjoy every minute. The years go quick and he will be gone.
I coached every sport my son wanted to play except soccer which I knew nothing about. We had many great times being involved together in those sports.
If I could do it all again I would have included some camping, fishing, water skiing and snow skiing.
And forced him to read many books like I did when I was young.

Love your kids and be open about loving them. But also parent them. Kids need rules and boundaries. Kids are malleable. Create the program and they will follow it. Show me a shitty kid and 9 out of 10 times they have shitty parents. Parenting can be hard and sometimes it’s easier to just not do it. Stick with it though.
Its really great and a lot of fun. I’m happy for you that you get to experience it. Best of luck. No matter what they tell you, never waking a sleeping baby to feed. Ever.

Thanks, y’all! We had a 10 lb baby boy born last night. My wife is a boss. I’ll appreciate all of your wisdom!
Now, time to get some sleep…

The best thing a father can do for their son, is love their mother (Or at least fake it in front of them).😎
