Addition to the Duck Clan

[Crazyduck]

Well it is with great enthusiasm and joy that I get to introduce Ian Rowley.

Ian joined us Jan 07 at 10:34am at a healthy 8lbs and 12ozs.
Mum and baby pulled through fine and are resting at home comfortably.
It is hard to express my joy and excitement of his birth.
To say it was spiritual and moving would be an understatement.
Heather was incredible and great trooper though the entire process.
It was an amazing experience that I will never forget.
Ian's older brother Austin has been excited about the process and was amazed.

Since we are both Dive Instructors we have been telling jokes since Heather was pregnant.
So please feel free to welcome Ian and dive jokes are welcome.

So when a NAUI Instructor Trainer (me) and a PADI Master Instructor (Heather) have a baby does that qualify him under Standards and Procedures for an Open Water card?

My wife made an excellent comment- I interviewed for the Pediatrician I can see you plan on interviewing for his dive instructor. Yup!

Again thank you for letting show off our baby boy.
Regards, Andrew

Only thing better than making them is holding them in your hands when they're brand new, and you got a 'lil cutie there too!!

Congrats.

Congratulations! Since he's spent 9 mo under water, doesn't that qualify him for some sort of Tech cert?
