Meet my new Niece, Saorla Lee Mason





All this kid does is drink, there's an Irish joke in there somewhere but I am not brave enough to make it. Meet Saorla, whose name I'll continually pronounce wrong. No matter, she's already in the top 3 of my favorite Nieces.

I was thrilled to be able to be in the hospital waiting room when she was born to happy parents, my brother Rob and Karen. Rob keeps answer my questions correctly, so things must be going well.

I've not seen her for a couple weeks no and feel out of touch. No matter, word is I am already her favorite Uncle (fine, only one precinct is reporting).

Isn't she a cutey? Naturally, she's a Mason.

Both my kids are quite taken with her. Reagan is thrilled to have another girl in the family and Ian just loves babies. Thrilled doesn't describe how I feel for Rob and Karen. The joys of parenting overstep just about everything and I am so happy they get to experience that.

Next week, this little cutey turns 1 month. Do you think a piñata is inappropriate at a 1 month old birthday party? I know what you are thinking: a piñata is never inappropriate. My thoughts exactly.

Ian goes Punk

It, of course is my fault. You could say that about most anything. But this, this is pure genius. Yesterday, he and I were headed to get haircuts. He says, "what kind of haircut are you getting Daddy?". I give my stock answer, "mohawk". He giggles and says, "me too, we'll be twins." He is smiling ear to ear. Next comes the part where I carefully extract myself from getting said mohawk. He says, "i don't care I am getting a mohawk." I saw ok thinking Mel will never allow. She says ok.

Five minute update

Sorry, 5 is all you get today...ok at least for now. Here are the top stories from the past week: Thanksgiving. What happens when you don't see family and don't eat Turkey? Not so bad, sorry family. We had a blast watching the parade in NYC, it was a beautiful warm day. The kids and mostly Mel enjoyed the floats and balloons. We'll be back next year. You can see a slide show of the images mel took, far too many up to the right -----> Best quote at a concert, Best thing to happen to my brother in front of me, "Sir, would you buy me a beer?" -underage girl at State Radio Concert. Probably the last 18 and older show we go to. Save the security team, we were the oldest folks there... And FYI, Rob didn't buy her one, what a good guy. Then we talked about if we'll still come to these concerts if Reagan happens to go to the same one... We decided she isn't leaving the house watching some young girl crowd surf... Prickly Pear is out of the water....
