Our daughter was born in June, and because of concern about attracting the evil eye, I was just given permission to let the information out. She is awesome, we are thrilled (but tired). In-laws are all ecstatic! This is why getting MIL here was such a big deal for us :lol:

Congratulations! She's adorable, and I'm sure will bring much pleasure and delight to her parents and grandparents :).

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

Thanks very much everybody that responded so far for your good wishes. It had to be a well kept secret, or as you know, the evil eye will be called directly (pa-plooey). Eventually Vika will figure out what pics I posted, and will demand that they be taken down for that reason :lol: .
