The Happy Day At Last Has Come

8 lbs 4 oz. 21 inches. Sugar and spice and everything nice, she's beautiful. Everyone's healthy. Many many thanks to some wonderful neighbors who took care of the other kids while Mommy and Daddy were busy. Still working on the name.

Edit
I originally mis-remembered her weight as 5 instead of 4 ounces. We've finally settled on Elinor Florence as her name, with Contessa Luisa as a close second (of course we would have called her "Dot"). She's home and doing great. We're all in the recovery and adaptation phase.

That is one beeeyoootiful baby! But, then, she can't help it--being born into such good looking families.

Still voting for: Princess Angelina Contessa Louisa Francesca Banana Fana Bo Besca
