Title: No longer Rumors of Brandon Jr.
Post by: Chimera on September 29, 2007, 10:39:30 PM
Okay since I'm in California and out of the loop I'll just set it straight here, under it's own topic.

I heard a rumor that Mrs. EUOL is pregnant and that it's a boy. I also heard the baby was due in September. But I haven't heard anything else yet.

The slight fear of a miniature Brandon running around and wreaking havoc on the world  ;) propells me to ask if this is all true and when is the darling baby due and will there be pictures?

I love babies! Congrats you two! I hope we get details.  ;D

Due date is late October early November.

And yep it's a boy but no name has been decided yet.

Yes, our baby boy is due November 2nd.  We hope he doesn't come early while EUOL is on book tour.  If he's anything like his father, who often arrives late to things, there will be nothing to worry about ... ;) I suspect he is like his father because his favorite time to be active is 3:00 am.  Anyway, I'm sure pictures will be posted once the lad arrives.

Do either of you have a name picked out yet?

any news yet on this? should be coming along soon!

Nope, expected due date is still about 2 weeks away.

And don't worry everyone I'm sure one of the site admins will post something if EUOL isn't able to.

And, if that site admin is Spriggan, I'm sure the post will be suitably snarky....
Title: Re: Rumors of Brandon Jr.
Post by: Spriggan on October 23, 2007, 08:23:18 AM
Mostly because I love the word snarky.

Pemberly,

As I have no idea how this all works, this is my first post here. I just want you to look in your old email address when you were single.  I sent an email there to make sure I have the right address to send you a gift for the baby.  You know me from Wyoming when you taught there.

So today is the day a new evil has come into our world, EUOL's better half (in more ways then just looks) had a baby today.

Name: EUULiT (Evil Undead Underloard in Training), though you may call him Joel*Note at the time of my talking to Brandon this wasn't 100% official
Weight: 8lbs, 6oz
Length: 19 inches
Time of birth: Not sure, I was told about 4pm so it's safe to assume between 3-4 pm. 

EUOL will fill you in on more of the details on his blog, and probably here as well, once things calm down and he has the presence of mind--not to mention the time--to post.

If you wish to present offerings to your future lord and master you can send any gifts care of Fell, SE and I to the TWG offices and make sure it's cool stuff like Xbox 360s, PS3s and various games, DVDs and anything else "cool".  He may be a baby but he has standards.

A first baby at 8lb 6oz, oi!

Congratulations! and just before halloween that's great! it means for the next 6 years you can buy halloween costumes and pass them off as birthday presents! (I know I had two birthday's to do last week  ;)).

I hope your baby learns to sleep through the night quickly and that mom heals well.

Congratulations to EUOL and Pemberly. I don't know about Joel, though--he looks more like a Xabenes.

Hooray! Such a cute picture. And what a cool birthday--two days before Halloween. Darn near perfect timing for the son of an evil undead overlord. (Speaking of timing, it's great that EUOL wasn't off on tour.)

Congrats!!

Congratulations!   :)  I like the name Joel and "Xabenes", but Roarf is much better for a little EUULiT.

Congrats to the both of you.  And props to Pemberley.  Birthing...is...not...easy.  Hope recovery is quick.  And I double 42's comments about commitment to sleepless nights.  Yay for you.  It's worth it.  (You'll hear that a lot.)  :)
