Rogers, first off.. congratulations!

Now on to the question... this will depend on you, your wife, and how much time you can make. I personally didn't have much trouble making time for myself when either of my two kids were born, but I also let my wife have 'time off' so she could do stuff and I would hold down the fort (so to speak). It's something you need to talk to your wife about and come up with a plan. If she realizes that kendo is important to you I'm pretty sure she will understand. The thing is you will have a lot less leisure time so you will be on the go more. It is important she knows you are willing to take care of stuff and perhaps clean more around the house, cook, change diapers, etc so she has time to do something for herself as well.
I wouldn't say travelling is completely off, but once again it is something you need to plan ahead for. Life does not end when you have kids, but it does become more complicated and more hectic at times.
