Best. Ever. Reason to delay in posting.

This is our son.  In keeping with my bloggy tradition I'm not posting his full name on here, but rest assured I deterred Matt from "Thrakazog Thorfin Skullsplitter Hrothgar Beasley" successfully.

He arrived Tuesday morning at 5:42 a.m., four days ahead of schedule.  He weighed 8 lb, 8 oz, and was 21 1/4 inches long.  (Within an ounce of the bug's stats, and he was three weeks earlier!)

Today (Friday) is the great return to the homestead to see what havoc Matt has wreaked in my absence.  There may be a slight unrealistic expectation of the bug sitting in the middle of the floor with a number of open containers of food; I have an image of her with a jar of peanut butter and a spoon.  But she's a resourceful girl and is likely just fine.

Welcome young Hrothgar! And it looks like he might be a sleeper too. Score!

Thufir Beasley is looking good there. I can see in his eyes the ability to computate efficiently. The spice must flow.
