baby!

Sterling Franklin Wolk was born Monday afternoon around 4:25. 8 pounds, 9 ounces, 21 inches, currently sleeping fitfully about eight inches away from me. Mama and baby both doing great. You can't tell here, but his hair is blond and straight, with a little cowlick up top, and is also the softest thing of all time.
Further baby-related extreme cuteness will generally appear on the more personal blog rather than here; as usual, email me if you want to know where to look. As I've warned before, updates everywhere will probably be sporadic for a bit.

Oh, look at him! He *is* gorgeous. You weren't lying. Let me know when he is available so I can start on those toes. xo
Doug - congrats on the new arrival. You're in for quite an adventure, believe me.
Btw, thanks for the Blender shoutout ;)
Congratulations Douglas! That kid is hella cute!
