Welcome to Parenthood: The Murdoch Kid

On Sunday, February 12, 2005 at 3:14PM our friends Rob and Beth Murdoch welcomed their son, Lance Robert Murdoch. Lance, being a bit of an overachiever, was born about five weeks early and will have to spend a little time in a special nursery before he goes home, but both he and his mother are doing quite well. At birth, Lance weighed 5 pounds 5 ounces and was 19 1/4 inches long.

Lance, for those who are wondering, is the kid Kyle is supposed to beat up all through childhood. Methinks, however, the tables have likely turned. I’ve seen firsthand how scrappy kids who are born a few weeks early can be, and Lance may have the upper hand. Steps must be taken.

So, congratulations to Rob and Beth. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to start Kyle on his endurance training.

    MFC will be pleased that mother and child are doing well. At 5 and 5, he’s got a good start.

    Tell me about it. Nobody in the family was fully prepared for The Littlest Broodling. He’s a loving little boy and a joy to behold, but he “don’t know much about the backdown.”
