"This Just In: I'm A Grand-Uncle!"
7 years ago
Last year at this time, I was covering (in a ten-part journal) my first trip to New York City in nearly a quarter-of-a-century. The main reason my brother Glenn and I returned to the Northeast was to attend the wedding of our niece Corynne Pereira and her boyfriend Hector Duprey...
(BTW, if you'd like to read the first part of the above journal, go to this link: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8287821 )
A few months later, my bro and I had learned that Corynne was pregnant with the couple's first child, and was expecting to give birth within a 'two-week window' - before or after May 28, 2018. And, to keep everyone in suspense, she refused to have a sonogram - as she wanted to be surprised as to the gender of the baby...
As it turned out, the blessed event was so far behind schedule, the folks at the hospital decided to induce labor, so Corynne could have her newborn naturally. Even then, it took a long time (between contractions) for her to finally deliver...
Long story short, the baby entered our world after 12 Midnight on June 8, 2018... and it's a BOY! (And both mother and child are doing fine!) My ex-brother-in-law Paco Pereira made the official announcement via Facebook at 4:00 AM in the morning. He, my sister Rhonda, and several members of both the Pereiras and the Dupreys were hanging around the waiting room of the hospital's maternity ward for the big moment to occur...
ADDENDA: Here's some more details on the birth of Corynne Pereira Duprey's son:
The baby was born on Friday, June 8, 2018 at 12:47 AM, E.S.T., weighing 6 pounds and 13 ounces, and measuring 20.25 inches in height. The official birth name of this boy is Tristan Gabriel Duprey.
