We found out earlier today. We're super excited. Little Elizabeth Ayden will be here around August 9th.

Per my wife's request....this will be the first and LAST thing related to our daughter that will be PINK! Until she's old enough to decide if she likes it or not. Shea and I both can't stand the color....

Made the baby.....made the blank.....Now I've got till August to make the cigar pen :cool:

Way to go Jonathon. Make blanks, make pens, make babies, what is next?

Congradulations to you both. More happiness ahead of you.
Want us to start saving Baby wipe and Diaper coupons for you?

Oh, the pink pen looks very nice.

Hey that's great Jonathon. Girls are really more fun than boys. Well, at least up to a point. The point is when they figure out that they have you wrapped.

Kinda true. Girls have to have shoes, dresses, $200 jeans:eek: . . . . the list goes on & on. Just when you think you can breath because they graduated & have a "REAL" job, they get married. Can you say bye bye to your $$$$$$$$?

With boys, at least the things you buy them are generally more fun. But just wait till you want to use your favorite skew, and it looks as if it was used as a screw driver.

Thanks again everyone! Both sets of grandparents have already been out shopping. And yes....I'm already wrapped around her tiny finger :beat-up:

Thanks! I hand mixed the pink for the blank. I wanted it to be a nice soft pink and all my mica powders are for hot pink. Didn't want to use that.

Congrats! We just had our daughter last August. She's already trying to walk. Watch out, it goes fast.

Btw, what kit is that? I just love it.

Congrats Brooks!! My little girl is 14 now (going on 20). She hates pink!
Hey - I'm sure you can figure out the cigar pen... but if you want... send me the material (one of your castings) and I'll make you a Cigar Illusion pen for the celebration. I promise - no pink on the cigar! PM me if you're interested. And congrats!!

You now have a new mission in life. You now need to start taking $1 from each blank you sell and start her a savings account. That way when college rolls around you have it taken care of.

Since you both have a less than fOndness for pink she is going to love it. That's the way it goes sometimes. Congrats to both of you.

My daughter had to have EVERYTHING pink until she was about 14. Then it had to be green. She was 45 this year and still takes a lot of green.

Thanks again everyone! It's so great to FINALLY be able to refer to our baby by name &/or gender!!! So much nicer now. Love saying her name :biggrin:

Thanks! The kit is called the "Aero". You can find them at CSUSA, Classic Nib, Exotic Blanks and Indy-Pen-Dance. Possibly others but these I know for sure.
