Meet our little robot babychild!
As promised, I’m blogging about some big changes happening at LLR headquarters: the arrival of our new, baby girl, Eliza! And, I’ve wasted no time taking a photo of our photogenic little slobber monster for the blog.
It’s crazy, man. We’ve only been parents for about six hours, but we’ve packed all kinds of adventures into this afternoon. A frantic run to the Super-Target. Accidentally changing a diaper in “mid stream”. And a stressful drive down the freeway, in which I’ve already taken to venting my road rage in a delightful, I’m-talking-to-a-baby tone [“Daddy thinks this **** should pick a lane before I run him off the road.”]
We did a pretty good job at keeping our adoption plans under-the-radar until the last minute, so I’m sure there’s a ton of questions that y’all are dying to ask. Feel free. I’ll probably get around to a more lenghty baby blog post sometime this weekend [and I’ll continue to update our “Eliza comes home” photo set on Flickr]. Later!

Awesome! Congrats!!!
Hey, that’s great you guys. You will be great parents!!! I can’t wait to meet her.
I am so happy for you guys! I agree with Wayne, you will be awesome parents. She is a lucky little girl. Welcome to the adventure of a lifetime!
Congratulations! Life as you know it is over.
Wow- Congratulations to you both!
Holy Crap! That’s awesome. How old is she?
She’s so cute! Congratulations! I can’t wait to meet her!
Now we must call you Daddy Robot or Robo Papi or something…
I’m so glad people are adopting! Congrats!
She’s a very cute babybot. Baby Charlotte is excited to meet her new mini-pal! We can’t wait to see her in person.
Congrats on the little one.
Now you’re going to wonder what you did with all of your free time.
I am finally de-lurking to say CONGRATS! I’m soooo excited for you guys… and Eliza is adorable!
Do you remember me from Portland? KyAnn will. I found your site a while back and decided this was big enough news to say “hello”.
KyAnn will be interested to know that I’m back working at KGW now… in Creative Services, and I love it.
Anyway, I really am excited for you guys!
Congrats, guys.
As a father of two girls I can tell you you’re in for alot of love. Live up to it, as I know you will. Oh - one side effect. News, TV stations and ratings wars will never again seem all that important. Now get some sleep!
Congrats to all three of you! Our second son was adopted from Korea. It’s all pretty exciting!
Wow!!! Congratulations to you all!!! God Bless your famly.
Congrats! She’s adorable!
That’s awesome.
@everyone
Thanks! She IS really cute.
@my photog-blogging pals
You guys rule.
@Ellen B.
Of course I remember you! Your joint house party on Vista street back in the day was when I met my future wife!
Whoa!
A) She’s completely adorable.
B) Um, surprise much? We’ll definitely need the whole story.
C) I am EXTREMELY impressed/disappointed that there wasn’t one robot/cylon joke about creating the baby. Or that you won her in an Everquest tournament.
That’s such an awesome thing to happen to you guys… Congratulations!
congrats doods and cute little doodette!
i second ’slinger. news will never be important again. enjoy the time.
@mac
I’m kinda disappointed myself, now that you mention it!
Congrats, LLR!
Wow! A VERY pleasant surprise indeed!
Our little guy (Boomper, The Boy Wonder) is three now, and the greatest thing that EVER happened to us. I know you feel the same way with Eliza. Congrats to the whole family!
See, I KNEW sending you that robot romper was the right thing to do…it was just a matter of time. :)
WOW! Congrats! I’m blown away.. that’s rad!
Congrats to ya, J!
congrats on your very cute robot!
Welcome lovely Eliza! JL and KyAnn- your baby is going to have the coolest life EVER. I’m so excited for the three of you!
WTG you two. I don’t check in for a couple of weeks and people go and get six month olds. Too bad you missed out on all the first month feedings and diaper changes every couple of hours.
Say goodbye to your gaming time, but if you find time to play as much as before, let me know how you do it and not fall asleep at work.
Enjoy every minute with her, they are more precious than gold.
