Born late Tuesday night, Edward, to be called Ned, to my old friend Catherine and her husband Tom. They have six year old identical twins, Sophie and Yelena. Ned at 9lb 2oz came close to the combined weight of the twins (both about 5lb 6oz - she went to term, but she's a small woman). Another mother of identical twins told me that she'd heard that only 15% of people who have twins first go on to have other children, so I count Cat and Tom brave. Also, it was in a conversation about baby names with us that they fixed on Sophie (Yelena is named for a Polish friend of theirs - they met in Poland), and I jokingly told Cat that she should name this baby Edward called Ned because that was what I wanted for the Dillo, but mr. flea didn't like it - and she replied that Edward was her top choice! So we are clearly in harmonic convergence on the baby names.

An administrator at the day care had her first child, a daughter named Jade Elizabeth, a couple of weeks ago. The neighbors had their son overnight Sunday, but we haven't stopped by to get the deets and his name yet.

Oh I love the name 'Ned'!!! I wonder if my brother & SiL (expecting a boy at the end of next month) thought of it. They were kind of stuck for boys names that they both liked. The front runner now is Evan Matthew (Matthew after my brother). But they don't seem completely wedded to it. My brother woke up from a dream yelling their first daughter's name (Anna) so it's been hard to top that for knowing the baby's name would be just right.

I'm going to have to mention Ned to them.
