Wink Congratulations 2 Me

I'd like the GC community to welcome Dylan Thomas into the world. I am an Uncle!

Last Monday, my sister had an 8lb, 7oz, 21 inch baby boy. Perfectly healthy in every way. It took her and her husband (one of my fraternity brothers) 5 years to get pregnant, and they had a miscarrage along the way. She had to do the Lupron shots and everything. But, it payed off and the baby is BEAUTIFUL.

This is the first additiion to the family since me, so it is a big deal for us.

The totally amazing thing is that I NEVER knew I could totally fall so in love with something that easily. They put him in my arms and I melted.

<lifesaver beaming with pride>

Talking

Thanks EVERYONE for the kind words. I was thrilled the baby was fine, but was really concerned about my sister. We have a super close bond, and I was glad to see the baby fine, but I wanted to see her after the c-section. After that, I was OK. Able to breath again, so to speak.

SoCalGirl, I saw some commedian talking about that. He was saying, "Dinner? Naw, we ate ding dongs and ho-ho's. I aint gota pay the dentist bill." "Homework, no, we been playing 64 all day."

Seriously, I cant wait to spoil the kid.

Bonus points to EXCard, for the poet reference. Yep, thats who he is named for. I have always loved the poem "Do not go gently into that dark night." Ever since HS. Then my sis and Bro were watching a TV show on E or something and they were talking about famous Dylans. They liked the way Dylan Thomas sounded.

It was kinda funny seeing the birth certificate stuff (they list the following). My brother looks all cool and stuff because his place of birth is Cape Town, South Africa. (So very DMB) but that is un-cooled by my sisters place of birth, Grand Forks, NORTH DAKOTA. HA! Anyway, Mother is doing fine as well, almost fully recovered. They are getting about 3 hours sleep at a time. Both parents exhausted. Oh well.

I am so looking forward to being "Uncle Buck."

Thnaks for the kind words everyone.

Coolest Part, He's a Double Lambda Chi Legacy, Double ATO legacy, KA legacy and a Sigma Chi Legacy. This kid is SO going greek.
