		<description>@Phu: Yep this years been great so far. I've sure there's more good stuff to come though ;-)

@Brad: All the best on your upcoming arrival. Someone at work said "get some sleep now". Trust me from previous experience that's great advice :-).

@Nathan: Thanks, Nathan. It's not so stressful really but then I'm generally fairly laid back. I do love being a Dad, it's scary at times but I found it fairly easy to adapt. I would recommend it to anyone.</description>

		<description>Allow me to say congrats as well. Glad to hear everything is okay. I can only imagine how stressful it must be, having a little one to worry about and look after.</description>

		<description>I really appreciate this post.  We are soon about to writing our own story as well since my wife is less than two weeks from her due date.  We are excited but reading something like this helps me prepare mentally and put things in perspective.</description>

		<description>Congratulations Stuart! Along with your recent career move, it's been quite a year!

&lt;blockquote&gt;"As for names if it's a Boy we're undecided between Sean or Ben"&lt;/blockquote&gt;
If you can't make up your mind, you can always go with "Phu"; according to respected sources, naming your child Phu will guarantee good health, luck, looks and money* ;)

*ok, maybe not the money part:)</description>
