He's here!

I'd like to take a moment to introduce you all to Gianluca;

Gianluca Rosengrant is the newest Masinephew! At 6lbs 12ozs, he's built more like a climber than a sprinter... for now. I took the same path- skinny as a rail until I was about 23 years old- so he's got time to fill out and become a sprinter like his uncle.

Mom and Dad are both doing fine- seen here a few days ago at one of my other nephew's birthday party;
My sister Sara and brother-in-law Harry are both very excited about this first child, as we all are. He's kinda cute, so I think we'll keep him.

Speaking of nephews though, today is also the 1st birthday of my other sister's son;

Jackson- "Jack"- Carter is one year old today, on the day his newest cousin is born! How cool is that? Both sisters had their first children on June 14th! That's pretty freakin' cool, if you ask me!

Jack is a great boy and is almost always smiling.

With the arrival of Gianluca today, I now have 4 nephews! My brother's wife is now pregnant with their third child too... so I'll either have a 5th nephew (they have two boys already- Orion and Nolan) or my first niece (on my side of the family).

Here's Orion and Nolan with my sister-in-law Cheryl, during my sister Sara's baby shower a while back.

So as you can see, I'm working on a great team of future stars here. All are getting measured for custom frames so that they can begin training soon- leg shaving lessons will begin shortly. (Can you see why I'm called the "crazy uncle"?)
