Welcome baby Charles Allan Shaw!

The Shaw/Tuck family had a wonderful new Christmas addition this year - baby Charles Allan Shaw. My brother and his wife Valerie are the proud parents of a healthy, beautiful baby boy weighing in at 7 pounds 15 ounces; And I am a proud new Auntie. He's a cool 21.5 inches long and apparently he's got GI-normous boats for feet which should bode well for him in manhood haha :-)


The name Charles comes from our granddad Charles Shaw and Allan comes from Valerie's granddad Allan Tuck - so he's got the best of both worlds. He came a little early and popped out on Christmas day (but we figure he won't feel the pain of that until he's a little older - ;-). Doh!

Welcome baby Shaw!

Congratulations to Jimmy and Valerie, and welcome to Auntie-dom (Auntie-hood? Auntie-ville?)

Ah yes, Auntie-dom (aka "the cool one" aka "broke-ville" - after splurging for little-tyke gifts to achieve "the cool one" status) ;-)
