I am excited, with a little pang of regret. Not for them, of course. But for my own lack thereof.

Still, yay BabyAckles!

[snickfic]

Given that I have only a passing interest in babies, I am disproportionately excited by this news. :)

Isn't it fun? Strange, but fun.

Thanks so much for posting the news.

[feliciakw]

No problem. :-) How am I not going to share the news? Hee!

Oh, man. With names like Jensen and Danneel I wonder which direction they'll lean towards for the baby--super traditional, or Hollywood crazy? Could totally go either way :P

[feliciakw]

I don't think they'll go for Hollywood crazy--no Ivy Blu or Inspektor whatever. I expect they'll go with a real name, but a reallly unique name (rather like Jensen and Danneel). Like my new nephew's name is a real name, but it's so unusual here that it's a toss-up whether people are going to pronounce it correctly. Or like my name growing up, because it was unusual back then. (I've told my nephew--squeaker though he is--that when he gets frustrated that he can't find his name on mugs or magnets or keychains, come talk to Aunt Felicia. She understands.)

They're both from the south, so I'm also expecting something "southern."

[sarcasticval]

I feel your pain on the lack of novelty-name items. Valerie was impossible as well.

How exciting! :-D

[feliciakw]

Isn't it, though? :-D

I keep reading posts about "Oh, their baby is going to be gorgeous." And I'm all, "Yes, but s/he will be no more gorgeous than Nephew C. It is literally impossible to be more beautiful than Nephew C. As beautiful, sure. But not more."

I get kind of wobbly when I think of how beautiful Nephew C is. And did I tell you he's smiling? Apparently they don't usually smile this early? My nephew is a prodigy. A beautiful, handsome prodigy.

[izhilzha]

<3 Nephew C!

Smiling already? That *is* impressive. It's those Willeman genetics coming out already. :)

[feliciakw]

Hee!

Well, technically, he doesn't have any of those particular genetics. But I've read that 9 out of 10 children get their awesomeness from their aunt, so it must be the K genes or possibly the Mc genes. (I've been thinking he needs a wee kilt, too.)
