Amelia was born this morning at around 9:30 AM. She's not quite ready for fishslapping lessons yet, but she will get there... BabyGirly



Mom and baby are both doing fine, although Amelia is going to be in the NICU for a little while because she was very impatient to make her big debut and arrived about 7 weeks early.

More pics to come soon I'm sure. Big Grin

My wife and I were making a slideshow to run on the TV during the party and looking back at all the pictures of when she was born and then seeing her now... it's absolutely amazing how much she's changed. She was 3 lbs 12 oz when she was born. Her arms and legs were literally skin and bones and I have this one picture where her head is just a little bit bigger than the size of my watch face. It was taken the day after she was born.



Most people never get to experience holding their baby when they are that small. Most people don't get to experience seeing their baby undergo the same kind of transformation that we got to see. So while it was really scary at the time, now that she's older and we can look back on the whole experience we are really glad that we got to have that extra bit of time with her. Having started off so tiny and vulnerable it makes it seem like she has come so much farther...

At the rate she is growing, I wouldn't be surprised if by the time year 2 ends she has graduated college, gotten married, and written her first award winning novel.

I submitted a picture of her for the Gerber Baby 2013 search. I may post a link in a couple of weeks when the voting opens in case anyone here wants to vote for her. Or is there a rule against trolling for votes? Dontknow

Blah blah blah... one year and not a single picture of her even holding a fish, let alone slapping it... What was with all the sardines and anchovies talk?
