Congratulations! I hope you and Thora and family are doing well. Sorry this note is so late -- I haven't been reading LJ, and out of the blue mom called to verify that you had given birth, and I had no information. WHAT GOOD IS THE INTERNET?

I clearly have to find some excuse to get back to CA and visit y'all.

and: wow. she really is cute, not one of those weird faceless personality-less baby-lumps. and you look so happy / healthy in the pictures you posted. Encouraging and good to see.

Best luck.
