"dr. rosenberg's a dude"
Thus sayeth loyal blog reader Marcia F., when informed of the good doctor's sex (as discovered during an exciting ultrasound this morning). Of course, senor "Shoes" went on the record a while back saying that everything would be cool so long as the baby was "happy, healthy, and has a penis" (check out "the quotable schumann from Nov. 8, 2005).
Dr. Rosenberg was a bit camera shy during the session, and took to hiding his face behind one hand, but that didn't stop our persistent nurse from taking all kinds of incriminating photos from a number of angles. We got to see his heart, spine, arms, legs, fingers, cranium, kidneys, and of course, his "manhood."
"It's a boy!" cried Evenkeel. "And what a boy!" (as he quoted Homer...Simpson, not the old Greek guy).
Evenkeel's mother, "Grandma Jackie," is ecstatic, but one can't help but notice that incredibly feint sense of sadness, as she once again lost out on having another girl in the family that wasn't married to one of her sons. Of course, this may still just be a boon to Evenkeel's cousin, Allegra, who has been a surrogate granddaughter for going on 11 years now. "Grandma Shirley," however, now has a grandson to go with her three granddaughters. Maybe these two wonderful women can set up some sort of grandchild exchange program for the novelty factor. Hmmm...we could be on to something here. Anything to help pay for Dr. Rosenberg's college fund, right?
In the meantime, we need to find a non-cockeyed mohel, and some good deli for Dr. Rosenberg's bris. For those who are wondering what the hell I'm talking about here, refer back to the Roosevelt Island (thankfully non) incident involving our nephew Adam and his distraught father. Overboard spent a harrowing morning shuffling around Mike and Carol's apartment asking anyone if they had noticed something "odd" about the guy with the knife.
Ultrasound pix coming soon!
