Congrats!!!!! :D

I feel 4 sides worth of records comin' on!
Not everyone gets an entire rock opera named after them!  [keep him away from the mirror!]

Glad everything :-X . . . went well, and everyone is healthy!

There are all sorts of groovy baby clothes with Lennon art work on 'em [from Cartier, I believe]  start him out to be a Beatle fan right away ;)

Happy Birthday, Tommy!


Ringo

[... and the mirror comment is about the 'storyline' from the opera, not his looks!]

I too congratulate you Patti, on your new arrival. Your baby boy is adorable. He looks so peaceful too, a happy baby. I am the proud Mother of a 5 year old girl, Stephanie. She is "Student of the Week" in her Kindergarten class. I lost my second child due to an ectopic pregnancy, but better it than both of us. It's fun being a Mommy, and now we have 3 generations of Dark Shadows fans in our family. I wish the best for you and your family. Have fun with your baby!

Congratulations to you and your husband, Patti....what an absolutely beautiful child Thomas is.

If he's not your first, you already know how intently you have to enjoy every minute of him...it slips by SO fast.

I blinked one day, and my 'baby' was 15 years old!!

Best wishes,
Raineypark

Title: A message from Patti
Post by: Midnite on March 14, 2002, 05:07:38 AM
From Patti:

"THANKS YOU GUYS!!!!
VAM...your's was WAAAAYYY cool.
Ringo, n'est pas...."Tommy can you hear me?" (been singing it for 6
months, along with, "It's a boy, Mrs. Walker it's a booooyyy".
RaineyPark....my boss once said to me:
I told him the next day was my oldest's 9th b-day.
He said, "And 9 + 9 will get you 18".
BAM!!!
Aint it the truth.
Isn't he lovely....aaahhh...but, he'll be 4 someday. :-/
I too thought you were Mark Rainey...and Mark...I'm glad to hear you're
not wanted for past-due tax evasion, either in the real world or on TV

QUESTION....for all the regulars/long running posters
(VAM, Vlad, Ringo, HENRY (where is he?), Anne, Birdie, RobinV, Midnite,
Sheilmarch, Kuaynin, etc, etc, etc....is
Tommy the first POSTER CHILD (ha ha)?
If he is, will that promote me from forum newbie to the next level?
Has anyone else, since posting, had a child?

P.S....regarding a week old post...the hospital did NOT have Sci-Fi :'(
:P

Patti
(loving Tommy, he doesn't talk yet!)"

Hurray Patti!
                   I am so happy for you.  He looks so beautiful.  Shocked me that you named him Thomas Philip as that is my hubby's name.   Treasure these special moments they fly by so very fast.  Enjoy. The very best of wishes for health and happiness to your whole family.


Birdie--my Tom's b'day was yesterday.

I've been on this forum for about 3 years now Patti and, though we've had a few young posters (kids of the original fans I believe) your little guy is the first 'Poster Baby' I've seen or heard of being born in that time.

First congradulations my wife and I experienced the same joy 2 1/2 years ago when our daughter was born, (Robin is right the time does fly).

To follow up on Ringo's comment, the Lennon baby outfits are made by Carters and are very nice. We had two or three of them for Olivia unfortunately she has out grown them, (not sure if they have toddler outfits).

Anyway enjoy these times and I wish you a speedy recovery.

I miss Henry too.  :(

Hey Al, Is your Olivia named for George's wife?  That is a beautiful name [beatle ref. aside! - B is for Beatles]  and my publisher named his daughter that, as well!  And did you choose yer screen name after Allen Klein? [hope not!]!

and I did put an extra 'I' in Carter, but baby stuff is one area I am not at all familiar with!! ::)   [jester] PICKY, PICKY, PICKY! [jester]

And back to Tommy, I am picturing a DS pinball machine....  bumpers into parallel time, secret passage ways for extra balls, a grabber hand [of you know who], shooter shaped like Julia's hypo, flippers shaped like fangs [fangs] [I am getting a lot of mileage out of that one, MB!] - Four different music tracks, DS theme, Josette's Theme, Q-man's tune, and :'( London Bridge!

Cheers,
Uncle Ringo

Hey Ring,
Olivia was actually named after her grandmother, (Linda's mom who passed away 2 1/2 weeks after Olivia was born. My wife, Linda is Jewish and naming for a deaceased relative is a tradition. However it is amazing the number of, "famous Olivia's" that we either knew about or have been brought to our attention, (Olivia Harrison, Olivia Corey even Olivia Newton John but we dont need to go there).

AllenCollins is my Dominion handle, (from back in the day). Another musical tie in, Allen Collins was one of the lead guitarists for Lynyrd Skynyrd, (another favorite). My musical taste's are broad so we must discuss this at some point, ( I too am a huge Beatles fan & Yes Alan Klien sucks for what he did to The Beatles, Stones, Badfinger and a host of others).

Patti, sorry for rambling at length.

Hi Patti,

He is just so-o-o-o precious :) I would just love to
pick him up and hold him. (That way Mom and Dad
could get some sleep).

It always amazes me how their little personalities
can show through even at this early age 8)

Enjoy him!!!!!

Hi, Patti.  I doubt I uploaded it because it was stored on aol space, and I've never had aol.  But AOL shut down their photo sharing services 4 or 5 years ago, so the link to the photo no longer works.  Sorry!
