Got a bun in the oven...


Wednesday, June 27, 2007


...and not of the cinnamon variety! Meet the newest addition to the Conway family! Needless to say Jenny and I are absolutely thrilled. Here's the little one, looking from above. You can see two wee bitty little arms up against its body. The big black circle is its brain (very impressive), and the two smaller black circles in front are the baby's eyes.

The baby is due (appropriately enough) around Thanksgiving. Don't worry, I'll still get my long-awaited brown sugar-brined turkey post done.

Oh, and now that the news is out, let me just tell you what a galactically bad idea it is to make six pounds of fresh sausage in a house with a severely nauseated pregnant woman. It may seem like it'd be ok, but it's not. It's really not.

Awww, well congratulations! That is wonderful news! I am due two days after your wife, so I totally feel her pain on the sausage issue.

You know, this could lead to a whole spin-off of baby food endeavors. We'll look for that next year.

And I'm with Jenny -- get working on some real cinnamon rolls.

Congratulations,

and incidentally, may I suggest ginger? Works better than dramamine for nausea and it's safe. Can be taken in tea, pills (if you don't like the taste) or as candied ginger (my personal favorite).
