And another...
I'm happy to report that Kim & Pete have just brought another boy into the world. Roscoe Bell was born this morning at 8:10am, weighing in at 6lb 10oz. K&P are both tired but well.
I could be wrong about this, but I believe the name has three K&P origins--the Midlake song, a neighborhood/street here in Chicago, and a novel by William Kennedy (not having read it, I'm not sure if the novel title refers to a character or a place). Bell is a family name.
And me? K & I are down to our last month or so of waiting until we make our deposit in the gene pool. Go! Kids!
Congratulations, Kim and Pete!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for keeping us up to date, Vampiro, but whatever is new with you?
What a name for the li'l tyke! All the best to parents and offspring. Hopefully there will be pictures available somewhere...
ReplyDeleteCongrats -- "Roscoe" is very cool -- anything to do with the Midlake song?
ReplyDeleteOr I suppose Roscoe P. Coltrane could be a possibility.
As Boss Hogg would be a terrible name for a child.
