Uncle sRod

Yesterday was a very exciting day around here! My sister was induced into labor yesterday at 6am. I spent the entire morning checking my phone, calling my mom for updates, and getting IMs from aunt. After what sounds like a very quick labor she gave birth to (not so) little Dominic, weighing in at 8 lbs. 9 oz. and measuring 19 inches tall.

Below are Dominic's first pictures shared with the world.










Welcome to the world Dominic! Wifey and I will be there in a couple of days to say hello in person--and maybe take you on your first tempo run. (Ha ha, yes, I know it's too soon for that--I should start him on the long run.)

Congrats! But I'd hold off on the tempo run until the kid fits in a jogging stroller... =)

Congratulations - make sure you buy him his first pair of running shoes. What's the smallest size they come in?

Being an uncle has to be a blast. It is your job henceforth to be a constant source of dirty jokes and actions that are quickly followed by "don't tell your mother".

Congrats crazy Uncle sRod. Just wait until the kid, with those annoying, young 20 year old legs, starts shattering all of your distance PRs. Then we'll see how cute he is. ;)
