She's Here

My new niece decided she was ready to make her appearance today! She is 6 pounds 5 ounces and 19 inches long. Wish we could go visit her sooner than this weekend or this Friday. The weather's getting bad tonight in any case. 3-5" of snow expected. Yeah.

oh HOW EXCITING -
i love this little quote -
babies are such a lovely way to start people
or something like that.
ahhhh - the SMELL and FEEL of their velvety perfect skin!
i am off to a friend's baby shower (you take pressies and play games and eat lunch just before the baby is born - and then you take another pressie when you meet the baby lol) on saturday.
i can't wait to feel momma's baby tummy!!!!!

We have baby showers here too, Kate. Some games are fun, some games are just... weird.

The baby shower games are EVIL!

The worst I know was at my cousin's. Each guest had a glass with an ice cube with a plastic baby in it. When your ice cube melted completely, you were supposed to yell, "My water broke!" Blech.

not even lol at "my water(s) broke..."
we usually have to guess what's in the baby food jars (stickers removed) and put a cloth nappy on the baby doll etc...
i didn't go.
to the baby shower.
cos woozie's sewing machine was being uncooperative during the eleventh hour last night as i was conjuring up the baby present...
i felt i couldn't turn up sans pressie.
