Well, can't say I've got much done in the shop for a while. This little guy is soaking up all my time, but it sure is fun being a daddy. Pretty sure I see a uke build in my near future.

Yep, my wife sure is a good cook. He is opening up nicely so far. He is already much louder than any guitar in the house and full of rich (and sometimes stinky) overtones.

Nice job, Aaron! Enjoy that little guy and any more that you have because they are the best things that we ever do. My first daughter just flew the coop last week, so I am in envy of all the guys that can hug their kids all the time. [clap] [clap] [clap]

Congrats Dad! I hope mom and baby are both doing well.
As far as stink goes, just wait until you start feeding him real food. I have no problem changing diapers for any baby under 6 months old. I hide when my 14 month old needs a change.

Is that your first build Aaron? If so, I'd say it's not too shabby at all. :D
What's your next build going to be? (after the uke)

Cheers,
Dave F.

Congratulations -- so CUTE!

_________________
The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.
