Luke: I am your father and other things my son is about to become tired of

We went to visit our beautiful son cocooned in his NICU bed.  He was sleepily moving around and exploring his world, all be it confined to a plastic bubble.  He has a full head of black hair and much reddish skin is about the best thing I have seen, well, ever.

We waited on Emily's chance to meet him until settling on our short list of names, though his actual name sounds like a short list of names:

Luke Malachi Toews Miller

To be clear, we did not select this name just for Bryce to make a repeated Star Wars reference.  It was just gravy.  Delicious, Delicious, gravy, like the Poutine of his home and native land (one of them at any rate).

So that is enough surrealism for one day.  We will share more in time.
