Welcome to the world, baby Lucas

A little after 8 a.m. this morning my sister, Jennifer, gave birth to Lucas DeGennaro. Mom and baby are healthy and happy, and he tipped the scales at 8 lbs. 15 oz. He was about a week overdue, and since Jennifer struggled with inducement during her first pregnancy, they did a planned C-section. She's recovering much more quickly this time around.

Tomorrow morning we are hopping in the car and heading to Atlantic City. They live in Galloway, New Jersey just outside of Atlantic City.

This is the third baby born in our family in the past seven weeks. Late in May a member of my web team, (and my second cousin) gave birth to her first, a little girl named Natalie. In June, my wife's sister had her first, and we welcomed Lauren Rebecca. Now in July, Lucas joined us.

My wife and I started trying to get pregnant about eight years ago. Our twins turned six in May. Since we began working on our little project, there's been a baby boom among our closest friends and family. Check out this unbelievable list.

• Jason, Ainsley -- our twins
• Brianna, Kaitlyn -- to Kristen's brother, Jonathan
• Lauren -- to my sister in law, Lori
• Vincent, Lucas -- to my sister, Jennifer
• Natalie -- to my cousin, and assistant, Kyley
• Zander, Lexi -- to my personal care attendant, Heather
• Abigail -- to my assistant, Michelle
• Lucy -- to my personal care attendant, another Heather
• Samuel, Gracie -- to my assistant, Jane
• Isaiah, Nathan, Maya,Lara -- to my wife's best friend, Rachel
• Sadie -- to her other best friend, Elizabeth
• Rylee -- to our nanny, Nicole
• Romelo,Victor -- to our nanny, Hollie
• Madison -- to our nanny, Lisa

The total comes to 22 babies in eight years, including three sets of twins. This doesn't include about a dozen babies born to cousins and other extended family. All of these people were employees, closest friends and immediate family.

At first, I thought something was in our water. But partway through, we moved and now use bottled water. Additionally, three of the babies were adopted.

I have another theory. It's me! I've spent significant time with all of these people. Either, my incredible manliness drives women crazy and they run home and take out their passion on their husbands and boyfriends, or, perhaps (but I think unlikely) they are so thankful that their husbands are not like me that they give them good love. Either way, I get the credit or blame!

I'm thinking of making a T-shirt for myself that simply says "Fertility God". Let's hear what you think. Post your comments below.
