I'm an uncle for the first time!
 

My baby brother gets to be the one with a kid and carry on the 'ol family name. Carter Hale Vestal was born yesterday at 4:42 pm and weighed 7.1 lbs. Not too shabby..my bro and I both weighed right at 10 lbs. ourselves. Really cool..bro and I are over 13 years apart and his son was born in the same hospital where he was born..and I got to be there and hold both right after they were both born...back in '79 and now in '07 :) Here I am with Carter last night..

Congrats! It's fun being an uncle. "Mommy, Uncle Jon took me 100mph in his Porsche." "Mommy, Uncle Jon gave me a BB gun." "Mommy, Uncle Jon let me drink his beer."

Then I had a son. Payback is a *****. :D

If she sees that Ryan, you may become the "soprano" of the family:D

Congrats Ryan! I always had fun being the crazy uncle.

lol..vinny..who could argue with an avatar like yours? ;)

btw, vinny..i always wondered where your avatar originated. New years eve we watched 'office space' again for the first time in like 6 years..and all of a sudden i had an epihany...'vinman'! :)

Congrats, Ryan!

Your parents first grandchild?

Yes, you will be the uncle with the cool car. A real Porsche!

hi livi...yes, their first grandchild. doesn't look like any will be descending from my loins.

Don´t sweat it, Ryan. I made my latest a little more than a year ago. And you and I are the same age, as I remember.

yeah, i have my 41st b-day this month on the 22nd.. :(

You are merely 48 hours behind me then. Life begins ...... now!

so you're..older...heh heh heh... ;)
