Meet Our Newest Halos Fan!

Hey Everyone. Here's a quick update. Melody Ann was born November 1st, at 2:59 pm! Check her out! She's almost 3 months premature. She's a little smaller than David Eckstein at 14 inches, 2 lb. 4 oz. She seems pretty healthy so far. Thanks to everyone who has been praying and wishing us well. Keep it up! It is slightly unfortunate that she had to be born into a world where the Yankees are in the World Series instead of our Angels. Let's hope our boys are there for her first birthday next year!
UPDATE: The complicated pregnancy that coincided with the ALCS was discussed in RallyManatee's Angel Fan Down FanPost in mid-October

Congrats on the new addition!
My oldest son was born premature, at 16 inches long and 4 lbs. 10 oz. Today he is almost 18, over six feet tall and 220 pounds. They get big rather quickly.

Contrats, Rally Manatee!!!
Halofolife, our younger was also a 7 week preemie. About 4 lbs even, dropped to 3#8oz before gaining.
Now she’s a straight-A student in honors courses in HS. Of course, she’s a little smaller — OK, a lot smaller — than yoour son, but her mom’s petite too.

Well...
My son may be bigger than your daughter, but her grades are definitely better. It always amazes me that at one point I could literally hold my son in my hand. Now, not so much.

If she winds up being a Yankees fan, be sure to put her up for adoption.
In the meantime, congratulations!
I've got nothing.

Won't happen.
I’m pretty old school for a young guy. She will believe in everything I believe in, or I’m gittin’ the lickin’ stick!
No matter what happens from here on, it has been a great season.

Thank you, Nick Adenhart. You will always be remembered. #34

I think I'm going about this backwards,
But looking at all the Angels baby clothes makes me want a baby. Or at least borrow one for a few hours and play dress up.

We got her a Rally Monkey onesie
I’ll post a picture of her in it as soon as she fits (might be a while). But we did those ones for my nephew.

Nice choice.
For some offseason fun, check out the Mac & Windows Space Shooter game I helped make: Insectoid

Congrats and Good luck. I hope everything goes well
My wife gave birth to our first baby girl 2 months ago. We took her to game one of the ALDS. Little girls are the best. She’ll melt your heart

Congrats to you too.
I can’t wait to take her to a game. We’re getting on that jumbotron fo sho.

"A little smaller than David Eckstein".
Classic.
We're boned.

Like RedFloyd's daughter, and similar to your daughter...
…my nephew was born pre-mature at Long Beach Memorial. I can still recall the first sight of him…so small, so frail, so completely defenseless. Well, has grown into quite a man, having returned from a deployment to Afghanistan about 6 months ago.
I hope the best for you and your newborn. It’s a special and critical relationship, father to daughter. The best to you and your family.

I have a feeling it won't take a few years for her first game.
Welcome Melody, the newest little angel.
Who goofed? I've got to know.

Well, sure
Wasn’t sure how long he’d wait, though, so I thought I’d go with the safe projection!

Congratulations!!!
Now, teach her to throw a nasty slider. Left handed. Call us in 20 years!
I wonder what John Lackey must think about how long Sosh left Juan Rivera in the playoff lineup?

There's a good chance.
Both Missus Manatee and I are lefties.
No matter what happens from here on, it has been a great season.

Congrats!
Speaking as a former premie myself (3mo, 2lb7oz), I speak from experience when i tell you that in a very few short years, the small start won’t really matter ;) Congrats and best of luck from this Mariners fan :)

Melody and Stacey still doing good, it's Hudler the Beagle who's down now.
I guess when it rains it pours. I had to take my dog the vet hospital last night. He’s either got an obstruction in his large intestine (I hope he didn’t eat my autographed Dick Schofield card!), or some kind of bacterial problem. Not trying to be an attention whore here, but he’s an Angels fan too, right? Which begs the question: do Angel fan dogs go to Halos Heaven?
No matter what happens from here on, it has been a great season.

I hope your entire family does well. An yes. Every angel fan goes to HH

Congrats on Melody's arrival!
She’s a little doll. :) Good luck with Hudler. My heart breaks for sick dogs (it would for babies, too, if I had one of them). Keep us posted? hugs
