It's a girl!

Mommy and baby are doing fine.
Almost as much hair as her big sister had at birth, but blonder.
Eager big sister a couple of days ago.
She was born at 9:48am, and was 8 pounds 1 ounce and 20 inches long. She has not yet gotten a moniker, but that will soon change. Everybody is feeling great.

Happy leap day, everyone!

    Way to go and congrats to you both (and big sister too)! Fun that she was born on a leap day. That is one birthday that I'll be able to remember. Glad to hear everyone is doing well.

      Thanks Pac. Perhaps best of all, she won't be old enough to get a driver's license or go on a date for 64 years ;-)

      Yes, a little early. The iPad wouldn't let me type another line. Only by a few days though.

      Thanks for the link to that story. I've since heard that about 5 million people worldwide were born on a leap day, and that they are called leaplings. Who knows how it will develop, but I think she'll have two birthdays every year, on 2/28 and 3/1 and maybe a big one on leap year.
