I’m now the father of two lovely little girls. I’m not sure if it’s a blessing or a curse.

I was hoping for 6lbs. 6.6oz. But we can’t have everything, can we?

Swill on May 6th, 2008 2:35 pm

Man, it seems like just yesterday you and The Gnome were kickin’ it in a Tucson trailer park.

Get a shotgun my friend, those girls will be dating scumbags punks on single speeds before you know it.

Way to go Jonny! Now put that thing away and stop overpopulating the trails with new, young cyclists! Oh wait, did you say girls?
Mikey on May 6th, 2008 4:17 pm

Jonny-

Congrats!

Girls are cool until about the time they turn 13… Then, rather than watching out for one penis, you have to watch out for ALL OF THEM. Most (but not all) teenage girls in America live so fucking far from reality it’s scary. At least boys are simple to understand, and if they kill themselves, they usually go out in a blaze of glory.

She’s beautiful! Nice work!
Jason on May 6th, 2008 4:56 pm

Jonny,
Congratulations!

When the boys start coming around just leave a shovel, rope and a bag of quicklime on the front porch.

Congrats, Hoss! You’re a braver man than I!!

As a friend blessed with a multiplicity of sons once told another friend who was celebrating the birth of his first child, a daughter:

“It takes a man to put balls on a baby.”

Cheap jokes aside, congrats to you and the missus on your successful eugenics experiments. I’m into cats myself, ’cause you can bust a cap in their ass when they start acting out and you need not enjoy the hot squativoo in Old Sparky as a consequence. Plus you can get another one without having to wait nine months, and they shit in a box. Still, each to his own.

Whoo hoo!
TedBike3000 on May 6th, 2008 9:38 pm

Despite what I feel about North Americans having more children, I gotta wish you and yours a healthy and happy future. Two words, Replacement Rate.
Erik on May 6th, 2008 10:41 pm

The triple 6 shows up at 12 and seems to go away at….? Well it’s still hasn’t gone away at 21 & 24 yet. It just seems easier as they wear you down. Beautiful sweet little girl.

#1 Job for Jonny…Keep Em off the Pole
mike on May 7th, 2008 11:58 am

seattle m&m on May 7th, 2008 12:13 pm

I’m gonna go all non-Aristotelean on you and assert that it is neither blessing nor curse nor both nor neither. Anyway, congratulations! My little daughter is the best thing that ever happened to me, but she’s also a handful and there’s only one of her. So, here’s hoping you get enough sleep to get by, that you always keep your sense of humor handy, and the kids grow up healthy, strong and happy.
ptbikeman on May 7th, 2008 1:47 pm

Well done!
Two girls = hand me downs= more $ for tires.
Yea right. Never enough, but lots o fun.
nik on May 7th, 2008 3:04 pm

vasectomy…get er done…
Shriram Krishnamurthi on May 7th, 2008 7:47 pm

Six 13? You don’t say. You’re staring opportunity in the face. Wrap that baby in jailbreak stripes (bar-tape will do in a pinch), tack on a “Legalize My …” sticker, and you have a Cannondale ad campaign. That’ll pay for her college. (Or keep you in beers until she goes to college, as you prefer.)
cwbyker on May 7th, 2008 8:13 pm

Cheers. Good on ya. I’ve got one due in Nov., I can only hope she or he turns out as lovely.
Cutter on May 8th, 2008 12:13 am

Congrats Papa,
A father of daughters, I can only imagine the shit your going to give those first boyfriends (grungy singlespeeders) they drag home.
la vita e bella,
the mostly reverend on May 8th, 2008 3:04 am

they always lose a little weight…hope for the best. she’s bound to be a little devilette.
scorekeeper scott on May 8th, 2008 8:46 am

Does this mean that my boy can have his choice of girls? We had a deal about an arranged marriage. You can’t back out now, I need that dowry for my retirement.

Nice job my friend!
b3ksmith on May 8th, 2008 2:20 pm

Congratulations on the latest, greatest blessing!
Enjoy!
Wine Dog on May 8th, 2008 7:28 pm

mitch on May 10th, 2008 11:05 am

jonny - congratulations!

i got a text from dru a few weeks ago on their newborn as well.

way to show that cyclists can have swimmers. even if they need arm floaties to get across the canal…

take care!
Bjorn on May 11th, 2008 3:34 am

Congratulations to you and your wife Jonny. Darling wife and I have two girls and a boy to bring up the rear. Kids are the greatest blessing and the biggest curse in this world. They fill your life with so much love and bodily excretion that you wouldn’t know what to do without them. A blessing upon you and your family. Bjorn.
