verbiage: population++

Well, I’m an uncle. Again.

At 10:20 last night, the world’s supply of natural resources — e.g., whipped cream, pencil sharpeners, the racing cars in Monopoly sets — was further impinged upon by the arrival of Clarke John Sweeney Adams.

10 fingers, 10 toes.

No flippers.

(I guess we can’t have everything.)

As I was picking the wee Nugget up for the first time, mysisterwhoeatspoofortwo said, “Say hello to your Uncle Monkey Pants.”

I can live with that.

    I must say that Uncle Monkey Pants has a nice ring to it.
    Congrats to the Sweeney and Adams clans.

    Congratulations to everyone.

    Uncle Monkey Pants sounds like a great start of a children’s book!

    Yay! Those are some heavy names for a wee lad. I’m sure he’ll learn to wield them in time.
