Hey everyone!
Just a quick announcement, on Saturday night, 10:37, my wife gave birth to a beautiful, bouncing baby girl! 8lbs 7 ounces. Just home from the hospital last night, Mom and baby Mackenzie are doing well, Dad is exhausted.
I'm going to try my best to not only write lullabyes, but man oh man, I feel a lullabye wrting session coming on, replete with sappy Daddy's little girl type lyrics and everything... I don't think I have any choice!
Seriously though, the most unbelievably amazing experience of my life so far. I highly recommend it to everyone!
That's all, just had to share the news! Cheers everyone!!!

Congratulations! You're in for years of unbelievably amazing.
The originals that hit it big in our house included "The Clean-Up Song" and "Now It's Time To Brush Our Teeth".

Congrats!
I wrote a bunch of pretty depressing ones for a short while (mostly from sleep dreprevation and stress from traveling for work) then they got progressively cheerier
"Talk about your feelings" remains on frequent rotation with my 3 year old.

Congratulations! Phil and I are expecting a baby girl in July!

As a mom of a two year old, I can say that the journey is unbelievably wonderful. Enjoy every moment (even the stinky and loud ones!)

Rock those Lullabye's out man, assuming you ever have time. Wouldn't this be SongFight!'s first baby-announcement?

Congratulations,
And don’t worries about going over board with the lullaby’s, cause if theres anything that’s missing around here; are songs with actual heartfelt emotions.
Also, thank you for fighting the good fight, and counter balancing what those Chinese’s people are trying to do with the female/male ration in this world.
