The Democratic Party just grew by one

Hey guys. Avitable here.

At 7:49 PM last night, August 12th, there was a trembling of the earth, a darkening of the skies, and crop failures around the world.  Oh, and Faiqa and Tariq's newest creation was plucked, mewling, from the dark vestiges of her womb.

She had asked me to put up a post once the baby was born, and since I get to post on her blog about her newborn son, I get to name him.  From henceforth he shall be known as Yanni Mohammad Barack Tariq Guadalupe Avitable Khan, but you can call him "Y".

He weighed 7 pounds 13 ounces and measured at 21 inches.  His penis, however, weighed 3 pounds, 2 ounces and measured at 11 inches.

Faiqa has given me permission to post this exclusive photo of baby Y, before anybody else has even seen him!

Please join me in the comments and wish Faiqa and Tariq congratulations on the birth of their new son and N. congratulations on the arrival of her new baby brother.

Freaky deaky doo....I totally dreamed that you were having your baby last night. Sure, you'd already had it but I had no idea!

I am so happy for all of you and am sending lots of love and congratulations! I can't wait to meet him too. :)

Woo hoo! Congrats Faiqa and Tariq! I'm so excited for you guys! I can't wait to see actual pictures of the little buggar! I think Guadalupe is an awesome nickname. ;) I feel sorry for Adam when he gets his ass kicked by the hormonal, engorged Faiqa. I want video, is all I'm sayin'.

Woo! Congratulations! Welcome!

August 13, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterRen

YEAH! Congrats!!!!!!!

(If I were you, I'd give that baby up there back to the gorilla from which it came, but that's just me.)

Congratulations!

Welcome Y; you are a very blessed young man. You picked an awesome family to belong to. Life is good. And hey, you're a Leo, the very best sign in the Zodiac.

Congrats Faiqa, Tariq and N. Now go rest every minute you can and enjoy that little guy. xo

Marvelous news, aside from the newbie looking a little too much like Adam. Congratulations.

And I love you guys so much I am actually commenting on my iPhone. On the Edge network. Hope to get up your way soon so I can meet the little guy in person.

Dear Faiqa (and Tariq since he reads and comments on here)
Congratulations on the birth of your son. Children are our future and therefore the most important creation that one can bring into the world. They give us light when things seem dark, and they bring us hope when it's most needed because they will soon be leading the way for all mankind. I'm sure your son is beautiful and will be full of pride being a part of your family. If not for the laughter of children we would never be reminded of how we use to be, which is a scary thing. I truly hope you both find strength in his love.

I'm so happy that you finally had that little baby boy! Congratulations to you and your family! Give little Y a snuggle for me :)

August 13, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterBecky

Hooray! That may be the most unattractive baby I've ever seen, though. Did you not pay attention to Reagan's "Just Say No" campaign?

August 13, 2009 | Unregistered Commentermuskrat

YAY! CONGRATS!

@Clown, Adam says this is a joke. I should never read comments while on pain meds.

August 13, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterFaiqa

@Faiqa, I honestly can't stop laughing right now.

I thought you enjoyed it because you realized I was ripping off Whitney Houston for you! I took legal risk in getting sued!

August 13, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterClown

Congrats!
