everyone loves babies. especially when they're this cool

a couple more cell phone photos from nate. he relayed to me that he'd post an update of his own tomorrow. he's taken quite a few photos on a real camera. most of them are of jackson yawning, laying, looking left, looking right, or being a beast.

rookie of the year

Meet jackson james aldeguer weaver

born 12.14.07

there goes the whole 'it's not mine' excuse: nate jr doomed from the start

new updates from nate. first the good. both baby and mom are healthy. nate jr's head is temporarily cone shaped as they had to extract the infant from cherry with a matching set of plastic ladles (we knew they'd come in handy for more than ladle ball one of these days). nate received a phone call seconds after the birth and heard his child crying in the background. they will be keeping the after birth on ice so that nate can consume it upon arrival as is customary for truly dedicated fathers.

and now the bad news. bridget rumor has it that nate jr. looks just like nate. hopefully she was referring to the biceps, jaw, hair and toes. not the hips. definitely not the hips. if so, that means the baby has no torso and half his body weight is in his hips. hopefully the resemblance means that he'll be the designated technical foul shooter and have a father that wins the one mile fun run during the Teens High On Life race.

also circulating from the rumor family is the news that the baby will be named jackson james 'hollywood' weaver. so i'll stop referring to him as nate jr and commence calling him hollywood. he's destined to be a star.

uncle! i'm an uncle! noogie time!

just had the news passed on from sista alissa that nate junior has officially joined us on planet earth. he's a 7 lbs 4 oz genius beast with a full head of hair. brian rumor has it that he already has a 5 o'clock shadow - putting me and my brothers to shame.

dudes, the baby is coming

this is a guest post courtesy of john. you might remember me from such events as "oh crap, nate missed another flight", "who's that idiot following nate around europe", and "how does this kid eat without a job. right. he's 25 and still lives with his parents".

i'm the second half of the nate/john combo. the robin to his batman, bert to his ernie, the posh to his becks. as you can tell, nate's a much more talent writer than me. i've already failed miserably at this post.

the whole point of this was to let you know that cherry ann is in labor. it started about 1 am last night when she felt like 'her butt fell off". nate got the call earlier this morning and is en route to redding, ca. he has to transfer 3 times i think so he won't arrive until 4:34 pacific time.

i'll keep everyone update as i am. check back periodically or add open skate with nate to your google reader (it's the best way to do it).
