Riley Anne Ralls (formerly known as Eggbert) was born at 11:34pm on Friday October 17th, 2008. I am (un)officially an uncle!!!!
Typically I am not a big fan of kids but I've been friends with Jason (and eventually Tara) for a long time and I'm very excited for them. In fact, I was over at their house Thursday night, trying to setup their wireless modem when Tara said she hoped that she would be in the 5% that actually have their baby on time (Riley was due on Saturday). Maybe five minutes later, she followed that up with ... "my water broke!" I'm half surprised I didn't run out the front door and all the way back to my place to hide, but I didn't. I was legitimately excited for them. Weird!
I went with Tracy, Kim and Michael to visit them at the hospital on Saturday...pictures soon to come...including my kick ass baby gift for Tara mainly, not so much for the baby :)
Jason, the proud new daddy of a conehead :)
Aunt Tracy actually looks like she knows what she's doing. Or at least she looks happy!
As for me, I'm kinda wingin it!
Kim is so good at this she looks bored
And here is my gift to them. Tara actually requested that I brough her beer in the hospital, but this is clearly the next best thing...
And with Tracy's assistance the labels really came out AWESOME!
"Welcome Riley
Love, Uncle J
Bottom's Up"
