On November 5 my wife and I were very pleased to welcome our first child Colette Lillian Bryant into this world. Colette is a happy, healthy baby weighing in at 7 pounds 14 ounces. The first couple of days have been a big change for both my wife and I , but we are loving every minute of it.
Over the next week I have a bunch of great articles scheduled on One Smart Dollar. For those of you who I do social media and weekly round-up exchanges with those will return very soon.

Congratulations Sean + Wife! She is so beautiful… and she’s going to grow fast, so soak up that new baby smell and every little movement that she makes. So happy for you both!
That’s amazing! Congrats!
Congratulations, that’s so exciting, she looks gorgeous! My wife and I are expecting our first in January so you will be able to tell me all the things to watch out for.
Biggest advice I can give after one week is sleep when your baby sleeps 🙂
I reckon after a few weeks of being awake at all hours of the night and day, you will be hard pressed not being asleep when the baby is sleeping.
What a beautiful baby. I love her flower headband. Congratulations
Congratulations!!! She is beautiful!
Thanks Fred.
Thanks a lot.
I am a bit late with this but: aw, congratulations, Papa! She looks so dashing in her headband. Hopefully you and baby girl are tucked away somewhere blissfully sleeping. How is your sleep deprivation thus far? tee-hee
Thanks a lot.
It could be a lot worse. I help change the diapers and swaddle but I sleep when my wife is feeding. Not much I can do to help out with that 🙂
