Matt Lauer's Wife Gives Birth, Names Baby after My Friend's Cat
While appearing with Meredith Vieira on Ellen last week, The Today Show's Matt Lauer announced that his wife, Annette, would be giving birth to their third child today -- obviously a scheduled c-section or he should quit his day job and become a psychic. Anyway, the little boy arrived this morning at 9:37 a.m. and was given the Dutch name Thijs.
Funny enough, that's the name of my friend Saryn's cat... that little trendsetting furball.
Thijs joins Matt and Annette's 5-year-old son, Jack, and 3-year-old daughter, Romy.
May the new addition have the friskiness and agility of a cat, but definitely less hair than one... unless it's on the top of his head. I'm sure Matt would agree with me about the last part.
