Everyone concerned appears to be doing well.<\/p>\n<p>Jay and Holly told the family last Friday, the day she was born, but I wanted to wait 'til I could point to a blog entry from Jay before posting about it here. Follow the link above for more info (and to congratulate Jay and Holly!), plus a link to photos.<\/p>\n<p>'Sfunny--when they first told me Holly was pregnant, a few months back, my immediate reaction was \"Wow! I'm gonna be an uncle!\" And then I reminded myself that not only am I already a kith-uncle to a variety of friends' kids, I'm even a biological (half-)uncle to Gabrielle's daughter.<\/p>\n<p>But somehow, this felt a little different.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I'm thrilled that Jay and Holly have a kidlet. Yay!  Congratulations once again.<\/p>\n<p>I was a little sad to hear that they decided not to name the child <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kith.org\/journals\/jed\/2005\/05\/30\/2898.html#comment-5434\">Interferon<\/a>, as Holly had been threatening to do for years. Still, Avery is a lovely name, and family-relevant.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps I'll call the kid \"Iffy\" anyway (at least in this blog).  Or \"<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kith.org\/journals\/jed\/2005\/05\/30\/2898.html#comment-18203\">Roxy<\/a>.\" Or perhaps not.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless, I very much look forward to meeting her in person.<\/p>\n<p>And Jay and Holly, I hope you're managing to squeeze in some sleep now and then.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am delighted to announce the birth of my new niece, Avery.
