I have a niece now! At 6:52 am Madison Noelle joined us and she is 11 pounds, 12 ounces and 22 inches. She has brown hair and is cuter than a button. Her father hopes she will be a great athlete, and has plans to get her a go-cart very soon. Mom hopes she will have her singing voice and black hair. ---

Thank you Zev, Dave, Ringo and Kimmom!! Madison was a c-section baby, if she had been delivered normally, the poor kid would have had a dislocated shoulder. ---

Holy Cow, honey…I weighed 9lbs 8oz, and my mom promptly quit the motherhood game. See, my sister (the oldest) weighed 4 lbs…premature, and in those days a big deal. Then a brother, 6.5 lbs. Then a brother, 7.5 lbs. Then I came along. Nine and a half pounds…can you blame mom for deciding that it might be a good idea to quit? ANYWAY, I digress…CONGRATULATIONS! I’ll bet money that you are going to be a GREAT aunt! [sub]and since I am Scottish and notoriously frugal, THAT is a RINGING endorsement of your auntabilities![/sub] My Love, Cheri ---

Hello Anahita, Scotticher, and OtherOne She is doing good, but she hates being stuck for blood sugar tests, she has her mother’s lung power. She is not really chubby , but holy cow is she ever lanky! I have never known anyone else to have such a big baby on the first go.
