Green Bean has Sprouted!

The BeanSprout Has Arrived.

Earlier today, my sister, Green Bean, delivered the BeanSprout, more formally known as Arthur Leo.

He weighed in at 8 lbs. 7 oz., with a towering height of 20-3/4". He entered the world at 1:04 p.m. on Sunday, May 12, after about 10 hours of labor (the beginning of which was commemerated in a thread hijack here). He is adorably cute.

Mother, father and baby are doing fine. Uncle Billdo still needs some serious baby-holding lessons, and I don’t think that Spot the WonderPup yet realizes what he’s in for when the BeanSprout comes home on Tuesday.

Congrats!

'Grats to all! As a non-parent uncle, I can tell you Billdo ,that baby holding is nervous stuff at first, but you’ll get it

Don’t do it in a suit!

Hands Billdo a big box of Miracle-Gro.
Congrats!

Mazel tov!

That is definitely the best hijacking of a thread I have ever seen.

Mazel Tov, Green Bean!

Use the football hold billdo and snuggling with your nephew is a snap!

Congrats to all green beans and billdo relatives onthe new sprout!

Woooo! Congratulations to all y’all!

That’s great! Congratualtions Green Bean and hi to the new Beanette!

Awww…that’s wonderful! Tell her that I’m thinking happy thoughts for her back at Carnegie Mellon! :slight_smile:

Congratulations on the Beanling! :slight_smile:

Congrats, Green Bean, and give the sprout a hug for all of us! :slight_smile:

Born on Mother’s Day! How wonderful!

Congratulations to everyone.

Obviously, Arthur is a highly intelligent child. He chose a marvelous mother and father, and one of the best uncles around! The lad shows a lot of foresight for his tender age.

Conga-Rats!!! Get ready for the ride of your life :slight_smile:

Invest in a handful of cloth diapers, Billdo. They make great burp-rags, and will save your suits needless wear and staining.

Congrats, Grean Bean!

Congratulations to Green Bean, Overengineer, and Uncle Billdo. Welcome, baby Arthur! I can’t wait to see pictures!

A baby with three Dopers as family?

I don’t know whether to be really, really excited or really, really scared. :wink:

Just kidding. Congrats to the whole family! :smiley:
