thanks to a certain ex-high school sweetheart, my favorite stuffed animal as a child — pterry, the pterodactyl — has come home to roost. he’s already done a stint hanging above sparklet’s bed, only to be moved a couple of months later, to the mighty quinn’s room, when sparklet started having nightmares about the monster hanging over her bed. oops.

waiting for number two

March 23, 2013

sparklet and talimo are hanging out, waiting for “thing two” to arrive. and he did — bright and early:

“Tali, I couldn’t be more thrilled and blessed to introduce … Oliver Jude Elleithee [who] arrived [Saturday] at 8:15 a.m. –12 days early, totally healthy and raring to get a head start on life. (Personally, I blame the Georgetown Hoyas’ terrible first-round performance … for creating enough stress to induce early labor.) … 7 lbs., 9 ounces. 20 1/2 inches.”
