Uncle Dewdew

I was already an uncle, but only through marriage. Not to diminish the importance of my other nieces and nephews... my wife has plenty of brothers and sisters and most of them have spawned... however, my brother and his wife had a baby boy last night. He is 9 pounds, 5 ounces and full of dark hair (on his head), and we are very excited for them.

He hasn’t been named yet, but I’m hoping against “brother Jr.” or “dewdew”. One of me is bad enough.

    Woo! I'm a "...uh..." 2nd cousin? 1st cousin once removed? A monkey's uncle? How's this work exactly?

    I believe that the new creature would be your "first cousin once removed".

    It's all so confusing isn't it Moo. Just so it's clear I'm actually considered your Brother-in-Law yet to withdraw.

    We were talking about the name of dewdew's sammich right?

    Nope, I don't even know the first or last name of the sandwich.

    Ooo! What was its middle name then?

    For the SPAWN.

    I think they should name it Hecubus. That would make Dewdew's mom really really really happy.

    And make sure they tell her that the baby will grow up to be a "real man, who likes his women barefoot and pregnant." Woo!

    Fox Johnpeter! Hahaha!

    What is wrong with people?

    The poor child. Reading further, I discovered that one grandfather was named John and the other was named Peter... thus, Johnpeter.

    Good thing his grandfathers weren't Harry and Peter.
