Idea for my newborn

A fun poll to start off the weekend

Two things, we are an extremely close team and my wife is a nurse in the newborn nursery/NICU so she knows her doctor quite well. We are having our first next month right after Thanksgiving. Me wanting to get the most out of this experience and have some fun had two ideas pop into my head which I quickly presented to my team, and then my wife.

1. See if the doctor will allow me to help catch the baby. Free cross training opportunity.
2. Getting a picture of me cutting the umbilical cord with my Yarborough. Because that would just be awesome, and a proper way to welcome my child into this world.

Idea number one was applauded and my delta began to tell me how easy it is.

Idea number two was received with an even greater accolade from my team, with my bravos hailing me as a visionary.

With full confidence and the support of my team I presented this to my wife in the same order. Her response in summary was a kibosh on the knife, and her response to my defense of the idea was "Of course the guys think its an awesome idea, which is why you should have known I was going to say no!"

So the question. Given the chance would you cut your kid's cord with your Yarborough?
