Day 394: We’ve Got a Nephew!

We’ve joined the aunt and uncle club with the arrival of Jack Thomas. Marcus’ brother Jon and sister-in-law Kim (who did the real work) gave birth to a strapping young 8 pound, 2 ounce Jack on May 6th.

Happy Birthday Jack!

They aren’t too big on cigars around these parts. So in honor of Jack, we decided to smoke a strawberry flavor nargileh (hooka, sheesha, hubble bubble, water pipe). It wasn’t too offensive with mostly a sweet strawberry flavor. But it left us both feeling slightly ill and gave Marcus the shakes. Perhaps it’s good we’re not smokers.

We’re looking forward to meeting our nephew and sure hope that happens before he’s a year old.

    My congratulations to Jon & Kim.

    Welcome Jack!

    Not sure what to think with your choice of celebrating the birth of a new baby boy, though.
