Evangeline’s first movies.

And here are some of the first pictures.

I’m proud to introduce Evangeline Riley Suver, born June 23rd at 2:00PM, at Middlesex Memorial Hospital.

Weight: 6 Pounds, 13 Ounces

Mommy, Baby, and Daddy are all well. Although tired.

Your tongues can’t repel flavor of that magnitude..

Tonite we watched “The Queen”, starring Helen Mirren, and some actor that looks exactly like an evil Tony Blair doppleganger. So about half way through the movie, Karen asks “So I don’t get this. What’s the difference between England, Great Britain and the United Kingdom?”

And I reply, “Well, EVERYONE knows that it’s all exactly the same thing. I think. Errrrr… Actually, you know what, I really have no idea what any of those things really mean.”

Thank god for wikipedia! They put together a nice little euler diagram that explains everything

I don’t think anyone on earth actually knows all this. I’ve always used them interchangeably. And what the heck is the “Isle of Man?” Is that where the centaurs and dragons live?

When shopping around for a pediatrician, there are a number of important things to consider.

1) Have they been in practice for a long time?
2) Do they have flexible hours, both during the week and on-call?
3) Do you and the pediatrician have a similar personality?
4) Do they have a Nintendo Playchoice-10 in their waiting room, with original Metroid AND Rush’n Attack on it?

Once you have all of these questions answered, discard the answers from 1-3. If they answer “Yes” to question 4, pick them IMMEDIATELY.

You have no idea how happy that made me. I wonder if he’ll let me hang out in his waiting room even when my kid isn’t sick. And I wonder if he’ll let me bring in Big Gulps and hotdogs.
