The news about the new addition to our family never made it onto this particular venue, and for that, we're sorry. But later is better than never, right?
Meet Oglesbee Gamma:
Gamma is a boy, much to the delight of his older brother, who has all sorts of plans for his little brother and seems to have advanced ideas about how much the little guy will be capable of once he leaves Mommy's tummy. We're working on it so there's not a huge disappointment when Gamma comes out unable to do much more than sleep, eat, and poop. And no, we're not going to call him Gamma forever -- it's just his name (based on his rank ordering in the family) until he makes his social debut in about 20 weeks, at which point, we'll reveal whatever crazy name we've come up with.
So, 20 weeks have gone and 20 weeks are left. Here's to hoping the last half is a bit more comfortable than the first half, during which I became very good friends with the, um, porcelain throne, if you will, and spent almost 13 hours a day sleeping. Now that my energy is returning and food is more appealing to me, I'm looking forward to the rest of this unexpected adventure. We're halfway there, Baby!
In honor of this occasion, our song for the day is "Livin' on a Prayer" by Bon Jovi. Turn up your computer speakers and celebrate with us to some classic power rock on this sunny Friday morning.
