New Arrival

I wanted to do this last week, but posting on the blog quickly fell to the bottom of the list of things to do once we got home. We welcomed the newest member of our family on Sunday, March 1, at 1:35 pm. Laelia (LAY-lee-uh) was 7 lbs 10 oz and 19 1/2 inches long. She's a good baby and we feel very lucky that she is happy and healthy and that everything went smoothly in the delivery.

I'll post some pictures, since that's what everyone likes to see!





Tasman was not sure about this baby on Sunday, but has since warmed up.


Sean gave Laelia her first bath.








For comparison: The above is Tasman a few hours after she was born and below is Tasman now—the monkey!
