WTF?!

Hi Everyone,
Please welcome Penelope Catharine Anne to the world. Born Friday April 6, 2007 at 3:20 pm, she exited the womb, raised her arms as if in victory, and let go of a hearty scream.

"The birth was not as dramatic as I expected." proclaimed the cheerful mother still under the influence of an epidural.

"The birth was much more dramatic than I expected." said the father lying face down on a delivery room bench.

Penelope weighs 7 pounds and 6 ounces and is 19.5 inches long. She has dark brown hair and eyes of undetermined color (currently milky grey). Ten fingers and ten toes are accounted for. At two days old she likes colostrum and being swaddled. Her dislikes are cold stethoscopes and sleeping at night. - (new) Dad
