So, why haven’t I been updating very much so far in March? Well, I’ve been busy giving birth. My new baby!

See? There’s the proud father.

And there I am, the proud and happy mother, holding my new child. Doesn’t he look like me?



Isn’t it awesome that after only 8 days, I have lost every pound of my pregnancy weight? Take that, Heidi Klum, you whore!

Okay, obviously, I’m only kidding. Although, right after the last photo was taken, I got a call from Matt.

“Hello?”

“Hi, what are you doing?”

“Holding a baby.”

“Really? Whose baby?”

“It’s mine! Sorry, I forgot to tell you. You knocked me up. Send a check, deadbeat.”

It’s actually my buddy Nathalie’s baby. He was big when he was born – more than 9 pounds. Labor was a piece of cake, apparently – 2 and a half hours. That still sounds like 2 and a half hours of vagina-ripping hell to me, but if Nat says it was “a dream,” who am I to argue? It wasn’t my vagina.

(The guy in the second photo is no one’s baby daddy – it’s our friend and co-worker, DA. Also, click on any photo to see entire set, including one that may reveal Michael James’ future career.)

It seemed like Nathalie was pregnant for no fewer than 26 months. Seriously, that kid took forever to get here. And now that he is, I’m so glad Nathalie’s coming back to work, and I’m glad we’ll get to do stuff together again. I’m also glad Michael James is healthy and beautiful. He really is perfect. Tiny nose, little squishy mouth, bitty spock ears.

Mostly, I’m glad he’s not really mine.
