Welcome, Tanner Goldstein [The Whole Damn PW Family]

Sorry, little dude. The place is kind of a mess. But we’ll muddle through.

As Leigh mentioned in comments in the previous post, delivered by c-section this morning at 8:15 his local, and featured being held by big bro Satchel in a great photo over at Jeff’s Facebook page. Stacy has related thoughts, though the headline to his post put the M song “Pop Music” in my head (just warning you).

So, here’s a thread for ‘grats, reminiscences, musings, and wishes.

UPDATE: Insty has some timely thoughts on this happy occasion. Smitty, too.

    Hail to the newest Goldstein, and congratulations to the rest of the family!

  8. palaeomerus says:

    Now you have three to eight weeks of watching his nervous system slowly reach functionality. And in 17 years you’ll have to explain to him why tattoos are gross and not cool. I expect I’ll be a grizzled incandescent lightbulb smuggler by then.

  9. Ernst Schreiber says:

    That’s great. Best wishes to the families.

  10. motionview says:

    May he be blessed with Health and Happiness …

  13. leigh says:

    Welcome, Tanner! (Hi, Sathel!)

    This the year of the dragon on the Chinese calendar. Surely an omen, yes? I see he is meditating in his picture.

  14. leigh says:

    Throw this “c” uthere. Sorry, Satch.

  15. Danger says:

    Happy birthday Tanner G!

  16. B Moe says:

    Grats and best wishes to all, the million different emotions playing on Satches face made me smile.

  17. Patrick Chester says:

    Congratulations, Jeff and Mrs G!

    …and congratulations to Satchel for getting promoted to big brother!

  22. happyfeet says:

    hello tanner! you are a taurus! just like Mr. William Shakespeare!

    no pressure

  23. McGehee says:

    Don’t let the armadillo teach him any bad habits, Jeff. That’s your job.

  24. Abe Froman says:

    Congratulations family Goldstein! Good to see the baseball-themed child naming continue.

  25. BrendaK says:

    Congratulations!!!!

  26. sdferr says:

    Judging by your first couple of photos it’s a beautiful countenance you’ve got there young Mr. Tanner, even merely sleeping. Long and long and long may you keep it — right up to the point when you figure out how irresponsible all those adults preceding you have been as they mishandled your native birthright. Then, I hope to witness an angry frown of disappointment directed their way. But sooner, mashed bananas!

  27. Bob Reed says:

    Congratulations to Jeff, Mrs Jeff, and Tanner on a successful entry for the latter into the world; and to Satchel on becoming a big brother :)

    God bless and keep all four of you always.

    He’s a good looking young fellow. Does anyone have the tale of the tape from his delivery?

    My Regards to all.

  28. John Bradley says:

    Hit that tip jar, folks.

  29. John Bradley says:

    …’cause nothing says, “Congratulations Jeff, we love you, man!” quite like a pile of money.

  30. Congratulations, Jeff. Though I suspect Mrs G did most of the heavy lifting.

  31. Silver Whistle says:

    Great news, Jeff. You’re on your way to starting your own football team.

  32. Golem14 says:

    Congratulations! :-)

  33. lilida says:

    Took your advice, John Bradley. Congratulations, Jeff and family!

  34. EBL says:

    Welcome to the world Tanner. Here is your tab! It is $49,986.06.

  35. TRHein says:

    Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. G!

  36. jdw says:

    That was very nice of the Insty fellow to give such a link, and so quickly!

    Does that mean he still reads here on occasion ?

  37. Andrew says:

    Let’s hope Mrs. Goldstein is recovering nicely. C-sections are buy now, pay later type of deals.

    Prayers and blessings all around.

  38. That is Awesome! Take care of that woman, she breeds men!

  39. JHoward says:

    Well done, Goldsteins, and congreatulations. You must be elated.

    So take it to The Man, pronto!

  40. Joan Of Argghh says:

    Many blessings and congrats to you both! He’s adorable.

  41. Squid says:

    Congratulations to the whole famn damily! Jeff, I hope that while you step away from the blog, the constant diaper changes will remind you fondly of the trolls you’ve left behind.

  42. rnabs says:

    Congratulations, Jeff. Now, Satchel has got a wrestling partner :)

  43. Dale Price says:

    Congratulations to the entire Goldstein family!

    Might I recommend a first book for Tanner?

    http://www.amazon.com/We-People-The-Story-Constitution/dp/141695418X/ref=tmm_hrd_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1335367927&sr=8-1

    Oh, and be sure to be at the Much Better Half’s beck and call as she heals up from the Joy of C. My wife had one for our fifth, and the temptation to revert to normal lifting activity is a hard one to overcome.

  44. dicentra says:

    Yay Baby!

    He’s not Tanner, he’s the Tannest of them all!

  45. leigh says:

    …the temptation to revert to normal lifting activity is a hard one to overcome.

    Isn’t that the truth? I felt fine after I had my c-section or so I thought. I decided to vacuum the rugs and ended up rupturing a couple of my staples, ending in a fun (ha!) afternoon in the ER.

  46. RI Red says:

    Congratulations to all. Seeing your child emerge safely into this world makes everything else worth it.

  47. Matt says:

    Congrats Jeff. I thought you should have named him “Mitt” though … =)

  48. subconch says:

    Beautiful. Congratulations to you and your family.

  49. Swen says:

    Congratulations and Best Wishes All!!

  50. […] Hearty congratulations to Jeff on the new arrival. May he and his entire family be healthy, happy, and prosperous in the joyous times to come. Good on ya, Jeff, and your lovely wife and children, too. […]

  51. SGTTed says:

    Welcome to the USA, Tanner.

  52. ccs says:

    Congrats to the Goldstein family

  53. Garym says:

    Congrats to the Goldstiens. Careful there Jeff, you’re going to make a non working mother out of your wife if you keep this up. ; )

  54. Diana says:

    More please! Congratulations.

  55. Bob Belvedere says:

    A belated ‘Congratulations!’ to the Goldstein Family.

    God bless Master Tanner.

  56. Bob Agard says:

    Jeff,
    Congratulations to you and your family!
