I'm a boy, I'm a boy...
"Kapgar 2.0" has a name. It is Nathan Paul. Born tonight, weighing 8 lbs, 8 oz. and measuring in at 20.5 inches long. He has more hair than daddy already.
Born four days past the due date of September 15, but born exactly on his original due date.
Born on the 19th anniversary of the death of my friend Michael Paul Haddad.
Born on Talk Like a Pirate Day.
Welcome to the world, Nathan.
Does he at least CRY like a pirate?? :-)
Many happy congrats!

His cry reminds me of a pirate's parrot. Close enough? And thanks!
