Welcoming the arrival of Seattle’s most famous blogbaby

In our almost-2-years of publishing WSB, we’ve seen neighborhood blogs come and go around the city. One of the few still going strong, after almost as long, is Capitol Hill Seattle. We admire its editors Justin and Kristin for so many things, such as the inescapable fact they are wittier, hipper, younger, and cuter than us, and for their enthusiastic crosstown support of WSB. Tonight, we congratulate them on the arrival of their first child, written up pre-birth in this P-I article about a tongue-in-cheek naming contest. This afternoon — yes, at a Capitol Hill hospital — the Capitol Hill Seattleites welcomed their son Bowie (details in the comments on this CHS post). We wish them great luck and joy in the grand rollercoaster adventure that is parenting.

Wait. Does this mean that WSB is babyless? If Capitol Hill has a little Bowie, we need a little WSBaby!

Babyless but not childless. Otherwise we would not purport to proclaim parenthood a grand rollercoaster adventure … you really have NO IDEA, we learned (as did billions before us), till you embark on it.
