...or "off" the downlow so to speak...

let's just say life comes at you quick sometimes...

I had not mentioned a thing to anyone here on the downlow, so I guess it's time to learn a little... might also explain why I haven't been on as much the past week and a half...

My ex-girlfriend and I had sparked things back up as she was trying to scoot away from a not-so-good relationship with her boyfriend (kids, don't try that at home, in the back of a car, on the living-room floor or ANYWHERE, it is one of the most stressful things ever, but for me it was worth it as you read further along)...

One day my exgirlfriend calls me, knew something was wrong (or right) by the sound of her voice... she was pregnant...

here we are 10 months and one DNA test later... and on April the 19th of this year (just 8 days after my 24th birthday) my son was born... not the way you'd wish for it to happen, but I'm so happy...

cute like his daddy...

I'll get more pictures up... these are with his grandmother (my mother, her first grandbaby)... I looked like hell in the other ones so y'all can't see 'em ;)

him and his mother spent all weekend here, he doesn't sleep at night so I'm tired and need to go to sleep now...

It's alright, but if he would have named him Gary, that kid would grow up to be a legend.

Congrats and welcome to fatherhood! It's the best thing that can happen to a man, waay ahead of anything else. Your life will change, and it's going to be stressful at times. But it's awesome.
