Aidan Emery Glendinning
Patience apparently does not run in my genes, because late Sunday night our son, Aidan, decided that we’re not the boss of him and that it was time for him to see the world outside. After a few hours in the hospital he was born early Monday morning, and came out screaming to beat the band.
Over the last few days he and Laura and I have been getting into our routines, and for the most part he’s been an absolute angel — except for the times he’s decided that mid-diaper-change would be a good time to start pooping. Blowing bubbles from your backside with road tar can hardly be considered good behavior.
Right now it looks like we’ll be bringing him home tomorrow, which will be great. The private hospital room is nice and all — it’s even got a couch for me to sleep on so I’m not stuck in a chair — but it’ll be fantastic to sleep in our own bed again.

Congrats! Jenn and I are quite happy for the both of you.
Porter and Laura, I’m so, so very happy for you. Welcome to the world Aidan! What a beautiful little fellow you are. You’ve been born to awesome parents, so you might want to address the pooping issue and save them a little extra stress.
With all my love, Molly xoxoxoxo
He is beautiful. Congratulations. Can’t wait to see my grand nephew. Boy, seems funny to say that. Love to all Puddy
We caught the first pics through Flickr a couple o’ days ago. What a cute little guy! Very happy for you both: make that all 3 now.
Oh, and keep an eye on your Google ads now: seeing that you’re now the proud advertiser of Mylicon, who claims to relieve Baby Gas. You’ll be sending Aidan to college on the click-throughs of gas relief, diaper rash, and maybe, just maybe, colic drops.
Thanks everyone. We’re all doing great.
@Tina: That was my master plan all along. It’s the ultimate in ad optimization: have a kid so I can post about it and rake in the baby ad bucks.
Congrat, always a great time.
