Thanks to everyone for the kind emails and comments on the birth of my daughter. Several folks have asked for photos and more details...so here goes:
Danica Agnes Maus (we call her Dani)
9lbs. 5oz. and 21" long
It was by far the most intense experience of my life. The only thing I can even compare it to is the final laps of a long, hard crit...with a lap counter that seemed to never budge.
... and like racing, the reward far outweighs the effort...don't you think?
Awwwwwww!! The little Maus is a beauty!

To copy Fritz...AWWWWWW...
Little Dani is a cutie. Hope she lets you get a little sleep along the way.
Enjoy every minute!

Congratulations! I am a father of two myself. Enjoy the ride with her and don't turn your head! You won't want to miss a second of this time that goes by oh-so-quickly!
