That is one good looking family!

Welcome, Evelyn. You'll figure this out soon enough for yourself, but Daddy is for wrapping around your little finger, Big Brother is for blaming stuff on, and Mama is for making it all better when those others aren't cooperating.

Positively adorable, all of you!

Thanks so much, everyone! We came home from the hospital this afternoon, and everything is just great! She's freaking huge, but no worries about having to deliver her--she was a scheduled c-section so it was a walk in the park in that respect, at least until the anesthesia started wearing off. Minifob had a pretty rough weekend, with Mommy being away in the hospital for three days, but now that we're home he's very happy to play with his new baby sister. Still working on that whole 'being gentle' thing, but he's trying... For her part she's just the sweetest, most un-fussy baby I've ever seen. It's all been ridiculously easy so far. Quite the opposite of her brother already.

I should head back off to bed now, but I wanted to say hi--Mr. Clod proudly showed me this thread on his phone in the hospital shortly after posting it, and was so disheartened to learn that he could have attached the photos directly without spending all that time getting an image host set up... Also, a special thanks to Sundae for the sweet phone call. It's not every patient that gets to brag to the nurses that someone overseas cares about them. Mr. Clod said you have "a very sexy British voice," and should really consider going into voiceacting.

Don't feel too bad man. This guy I work with and his wife had a daughter this week who weighed 13 POUNDS!!!

That's like giving birth to a 2 or 3 month old kid.

The worst part is she is a tiny little lady. She's about 4'10". She's Vietnamese. I heard they had to cut her and it wasn't a C-Section.

Oh Clod I passed this info on to Mum tonight.
She was so happy (I told her all about you after the last birth). She says congratulations and laughed at the idea nurses in America can possibly be impressed by me. But she liked it too, I could tell.

Congratulations! And I trust everyone's well -- if getting sleep deprived?
