A New Pair Of Ears

[webby]

Yesterday, my Wife gave birth to a beautiful baby boy; a brother for my 2yr old Dylan. He's a good size weighing in at 10lb 4oz, but we're both tall and the baby is long so the weight is more due to the length than anything I guess.

Both Mum and baby are fine, but we've yet to decide on a name. He's smashing and I'm dead chuffed.

Congratualtions Lee!

I'll have a cigar if you're offering:)

[Themis]

Hey ! Congratulations to the mother, to you, and I hope the life of your baby will be full of happy moments. :)

[The Vinyl Adventure]

Macca, I'm a non smoker, but you go ahead :)

Cheers guys.

I wonder what they'll be listening to in 15 years time. Probably me saying "turn that down!" :)

[Rare Bird]

Well done..Crickey 20 odd years ago last time i changed a nappie

Congrats, mine tell me all the time to turn it down or more usually off:)

[Kris]

Yes, congrats. A perfect excuse to revisit those nursery rhyme LP's? :eyebrows:

Congrats! That'll be another 2 years of broken nights, but hopefully not broken hifi! (I've only lost a speaker bass cone so far!) ;)

Many congrats, you'll need to be playing plenty of bass heavy stuff over the next few months to make sure the little 'un gets loads of sleep. Jazz is no good, too disconsonant, dance is no go, synths too screechy, nice bit of reggae, good old Bob Marley should fit the bill. Have a :cool: on me!

Cheers

your lucky i used to have a pair of 5 way swallow speakers when the eldest was young, came home to find a BIC pen had been plunged through every unit..:steam:

[Spectral Morn]

Congratulations to you and your wife,Lee.

:champagne:

[DSJR]

Congrats from me too...

Try the "Music For Babies" discs (can't recall the artist/composer). Very "Tick-Tock" electronic rhythms almost in the kraftwerk style, but far earlier and it works apparently..

Make that 4, in my experience (have you spotted the 5am posts?!)

Congratulations, Lee, it's all too easy to forget how much joy a tiny one can bring, and how quickly they grow, too :eek: :eek:

All the best!

[Jonboy]

I have got a good cd of Ivor the engine very relaxing, all the good sound effects from the program, ah takes me back:)

[Alex_UK]

This is what you want - Lullaby (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lullaby-Beautiful-Soothing-Collection-Children/dp/B0012IWIZ4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1260313721&sr=8-1), by Sophie Barker - who sang with Zero 7 - putting the chill into the night time routine - never worked for the babe, but it did help me! ;)

Thanks all you guys.

[The Grand Wazoo]

All the best Lee

Great news, Lee. I wish your good lady, Dylan and you all the health and happiness in the world :)

For the sake of rounding of this thread, we went with the name Ellis Lucas.

It was such a hard decision :scratch:

Would that be Soothing Sounds for Baby WIKI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soothing_Sounds_for_Baby#cite_note-0) by Raymond Scott.
Ellis Lucas, very nice, was worried you might go for Thomas.

Cheers

Back again...

We had a change of heart and switched the names around, so it's now Lucas Ellis. :)
