In my efforts to chronicle the life and times of Theo, here is some information that my own Baby Book, filled out with so much love and meticulous detail by my mother, asked for. These responses of course apply to Theo.
Headlines from the day I was born:
Economy Shed 598,000 Jobs in January.
New Express Bus Line From NY to Atlantic City.
(Both from the NY Times.)
Man Attacks Lawyer in Court With His Feces
(PerezHilton.com)
President: Barack Obama
Price of milk/gas/stamps: respectively, $3.46/gallon; $2.29/gallon in California (that is only price I could find online); $.42 (increased to $.44 on May 11, 2009)
#1 TV Show: For the week you were born, the top viewed television show, according to Nielsen Media, was American Idol. Also in the top 10 were Grey's Anatomy and CSI: Miami.
#1 Movie: Couldn't find but can tell you that the day before you were born, "The Pink Panther 2" and "He's Just Not That Into You" were released.
Wow, the world looks pretty grim (other than our new president) from this snapshot -- the best thing happening in the world on February 7, 2009 was your arrival, Theodore Edmund!
