    Congratulations Gary and Lizzie! Your right that is a huge announcement! I’m sure it feels great, but I can tell you that the biggest most emotional moment will be the moment the baby arrives! If we could bottle that feeling, the first few minutes a baby arrives in this world and his or her parents see them the world would be a different place!

    I’m sure your gonna be a great Dad! Good luck my friend!

    Congrats to Gary and Lizz on your new baby coming this year. I might suggest to you, to accept any offer of help you may get from any and all quarters, especially when people cook for you, because there will be days you will both be too tired to do it, and you will have to feed your child twice before you can feed yourselves once. I hope you both will get enough sleep, somehow. As for advice to your son or daughter when the time is right, I would suggest you say the same thing I say to my daughter, that in life you have to play the hand you have been dealt, and give your utmost effort and provide as much help as you when no matter what the circumstances, and be as appreciative as possible of all the help you receive in return.

    Some days will be a lot more work than fun, but you will remember the fun.

    qotd: remember your the father and to lay down the hammer when needed(in love). Because remember the reason why we discipline our child is because we love them we don’t want bad things to happen to them. And also to know that sometimes you just need to talk to them.

    Every one seems to say their kid slept through the night within a month or two…My little madman took two and a half years. Being a father will be the most difficult yet most rewarding and challenging endeavor you will face in the coming years. Sleep now. Each year gets easier…. 10 now so can’t speak for the teen years. I’d do it again in a heartbeat. Phnl8

    Congratulations to both Lizzie and yourself….wonderful news and came as a double suprise as I only just found out that my best friend is also expecting a baby soon – strange coincidence.

    Great show….great descriptions as always.

    Now that the January sales have commenced is there any chance of looking at some ‘bin ends’ and tell us what varietals will still be tasting ok or if not better than first released – THAT WOULD BE A REAL VALUE FOR MONEY SHOW!

    Got a vertical tasting of some 05 Bordeaux tomorrow so pretty geared up for that.

  • Great news. I’ve only been following you for a couple of weeks and then BAM: smack in the middle of this news. I wish you both lots of good times, it’ll be great. I hope you’ll have as much fun as I had when deciding what bottles you’re going to celebrate the birth with (Vintage Champagne? Bordeaux classified growths? Sassicaia?), together with friends and family. And what bottles of 2009 you’ll buy to keep untill his/her legal drinking age (“Will there be a vintage year in Port?”).

    Congratulations! Definitely the happiest and most important moment in my life was when my daughter was born 17 and a half years ago–there’s nothing better! (I wouldn’t say she is a Vayniac, being under age and all, but what a coincidence when I was watching Wine Library TV one day and she caught a glimpse and said that the town she lives in in New Jersey is right near Wine Library and she has accompanied her dad there many times.) Wishing you and your wife lots of health and happiness!

  • For the parents:
    1. Take time for yourself. Its good for you & the baby. Lizzie – make sure you go out at least once by the time the baby is 6 weeks. Seriously.
    2. When the baby sleeps, you sleep. No “catching up”, no cleaning. Sleep!
    3. When anyone offers help – accept it.

    For baby V:
    1. Your parents will always love you, no matter what. They may get angry at some things you do. But they will always love you.
    2. You can tell them anything, and I mean anything. They will always listen. They are the first place to get advice and answers. Really. Even when you’re a teenager. Especially when you’re a teenager.
    3. Read all the comments and signatures on that bottle of wine your parents had signed by friends and family at your birth. But do not drink it before you are 21.

    For the family:
    You are in for the ride of your life! Hold hands, hang on & Enjoy!

    Congrats to the whole extended Vaynerchuk family!

    DUDE, Congrats to you and Lizzie!!!

    Advice: Sleep will be few and far between the first couple of months. It’s an adjustment period, but you’ll never be as tired as you are those months…

    And whatever you do, DON’T WUSS OUT ON THE “GROSS” STUFF! Changing diapers, cleaning the kid up after meals, baths– I’ve got friends that have skipped on these and their wives and partners have never let them live it down. Besides, this is good bonding time anyway. It’s hilarious to see your kid’s face while you change their diapers….

    Congrats! Now, it’ll be a Thunder Family!! (Oh, I bet Uncle AJ is so excited! All the fun of having a kid, with none of the responsibility. Kid spits up, hand ’em back. Diaper change? Here ya go, Dad.)

    Congrats to you both! =)

    QOTD: The baby above all else. Pay good attention to Lizzie aswell, her moods and feelings, as having a baby can be quite shocking (emotionally) for the mother.
    In short, be there for them both and pay attention to their moods and needs.

    QOTD: although I’m not a parent, I can tell you’ll be a great parent as long as you treat your child better than you do with the WLTV camera and corks.
