The Newest Ciccone

While Gustav has been tearing through the Gulf Coast, and protesters have been demonstrating in St. Paul, over in Minneapolis my cousin Steve and his wife Stephanie have been riding out their own personal drama bringing their firstborn into the world. After making us wait 11 days past his due date and putting his mother through a prolonged labor, Clark Steven Ciccone at long last drew his first breath shortly after midnight early, early this morning.

Mom and baby are doing fine, and Rever (nickname - long story) couldn't be a prouder papa, though the long labor was kinda rough on all of them, so if you're a praying type, please hold them in your own prayers these next few days.

Welcome to the world, baby Clark! We are so glad you are finally here!
