Announcing A *New* Littlest Briston!

Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share (MPSIMS)
#1

After eight+ years of tales about Shayla McLaughlin, aka The Littlest Briston, she’s been replaced. Alanah NaCole McLaughlin arrived at 4:17 pm yesterday, 7 lbs. 2 oz., 20"!

Noob!
Sorry kid, when it comes to dads, you play the hand you’re dealt.
Formerly Littlest Briston, meet The Littlest Briston 2.0

Everyone is doing well – mom is still a little wiped from over two hours of pushing, but things are good. Alanah has a slight heart murmur, but the docs are confident that it’s nothing unusual and will be gone in a couple of weeks. Big sis is absolutely thrilled to be a big sis. And dad simply couldn’t be happier!

Congratulations! So how much wool does she have? :smiley:

About the name – my wife and I had an agreement. We weren’t finding out what we were having, and if it was a girl, she had 100% full naming rights. If it were a boy, then said rights would have fallen to me. No vetoes, no take-backs, no “are you fricking kidding me?!?”

All the girls in my wife’s family have a middle name with the Big-Little-Big naming convention (LaRayne, JoEllen, etc.), so I knew that would be a given. All in all, I like the name she picked.

But oh, if it had been a boy.

I was all set – I had been thinking about it ever since bouv had given his thoughts when I was looking for a name for the first Littlest Briston. And now I was all set – I had complete no-veto naming rights, all the kid had to do was play along and have a penis. He would be Brock. Brock McLaughlin. Brock Danger McLaughlin.

So, my sweet Alanah, I love you very much – but it’s your own fault that you’re not a guy with The Awesomest Name In History.

Mid-sized Briston? Not Quite as little as the littlest Briston? Littler Briston? Light Cruiser Briston? The Sun Briston? (the sun is a middle sized star)
