Brooklynne gave me the news this morning that there's a new Melby in the world, Adeline Autumn. Wow, she's a cutie! You can see more pictures, leave your comments, and eventually read her blog at myadeline.com.

I got to know Peter, Adeline's dad, though Cory during our time together in Bozeman, and I lived with him for about two weeks (days?) when I assumed his slot in the famed Bachelor Bunker. Peter moved to Denver and established the Bachelor Bunker South with Matt, but now all but one of us (me, Matt, Jamie, and Peter) have left bachelorhood for the greener pastures of marriage (J-dub being the last hold-out).

Man time flies.

Sometimes I feel like a secret groupie of Peter. He introduced me to blogging, helped me set up the original host for the TWJ, and though he may or may not realize this, knowing him over the years helped me learn alot about myself. Sometimes I wonder if I missed out on a lot of fun by not becoming better friends with him earlier on.

Now I rarely see Peter. When I travel out west, I'm generally consumed with family ties, and our common friends have been scattered probably beyond the point of ever getting together again. But I love knowing that Peter will be a great dad, and I can always hope that sometime down the road our little girls will be able to play frisbee golf together, or poker, or Techmo Bowl.

Until that time, congradulations Peter and Amanda! We love you guys from afar, and wish you the best with your little Adeline!
