Santa Fe, NM. - Belo News is pleased to announce the arrival of a new Sharklet to the mighty Minion Nation!

Nina Duggan Moulton was born to Sam and Nicole Moulton on Tuesday, February 24, 2015!

However, not without considerable drama but it all turned out very well!

Sharkman and Lava Girl had planned to leave for Santa Fe on February 28 (the day after the End of Winter Party) and arrive on March 1 to move into the condo they had rented for the month so they could be there for the arrival of their newest sharklet. Little Nina was due on March 17 (quite appropriate for our Irish Sharkman) but it was not to be. Nina, impatient much like her Grandpa Shark, decided to arrive on Tuesday, February 24, approximately 3 weeks early!

The Shark Cove went into Def Con 10 as Lava Girl was going to be there no matter what!

So Lava Girl flew out that day (some may remember that this was the day after the huge snow storm that ravaged the south and getting a flight out of town was next to impossible) and arrived in Santa Fe at 1:30 a.m. (3:30 a.m. on her body clock)!

As our intrepid hero was driving her to the airport for the trip, Nicole called to say that Nina had arrived and was doing fine! Turns out there were no rooms at the hospital, so little Nina, 5.5 pounds, was born in a side room in a make shift delivery room! 

What a trooper!

Mother, daughter AND Grandma Shark are all doing very well!

Meanwhile, our intrepid hero left to drive to Santa Fe on Friday the day of the EOW Party and had to miss the gala event.

However, there were a number of the Nation in attendance at the party and they actually texted our hero after he had checked into a hotel in Elk City, Oklahoma for the night! Sharkman had to drive through a major snow storm to get to Santa Fe and found 8 inches of the white stuff all are familar with, waiting for him when he arrived to met his Nina. However, it all melted within 2 days and he has been riding in the 50s and 60s ever since! Is this a great country or what.

Sharkman has also been able to get out and photograph early in the morning (yes, we know that is unlike our hero to get up before dawn) but has also spent a lot of time taking care of the older sharklets and have a great time! So fitting in activities has been a challenge, but our hero loves a challenge!

So that is why our intrepid hero missed the EOW Party, and what he has been up to the past week and a half!
