George Elas Montgomery was born last night at 4:03am. He weighed 7lbs 4.4oz, and I didn't catch the length because I was trying to take a picture. It was another fast delivery, so fast that the poor little guy is pretty bruised up from it. Poor little purple face!

But that's the worst of it; he's another robust looking little boy, mother and son are resting comfortably, there are no lingering worries from the delivery, Denton's off with Ruth for the afternoon, and Daddy gets to catch a few hours sleep once he fulfills his solemn LiveJournal duty. Then Denton and I will go down to visit so that the two new brothers can get acquainted.

No jokes about beating a release date for a change.

Can I joke about beating [livejournal.com profile] seborn?

Wow! Congrats!

It was one of many typical if not overly common American names that died out in the mid 1800s. I think the origin is English (well, Scots-Irish), though I'm not certain of that, the irony being that I first heard it in the context of the Pennsylvania Dutch. I'm 1/4 Pennsylvania Dutch stock, so that's how it stuck (via misassociation). But then I'm also 1/4 Scots-Irish.

Camilla once again rejected Llewelyn :-)

I am with Camilla here - Llewellyn is a cool surname, but as a first name...?

Anyway - congratulations to Camilla, Denton and of course yourself on the family extension! Enjoy!

I forgot the obvious question: what is the association with George?

Llewelyn makes me think of The Black Cauldron, the animated film.
