I am more than pleased to provide some details.  Allow me to introduce "the Littlest Hiker," Smile my daughter Joyce who was born on Friday September 25th at 7:31 in the morning.  At birth, she weighed 8 lbs, 5 oz (3.775 kg) and was 20" (51 cm) long.  

Showing great hiking promise, her eyes brightened noticably when I showed her a 1:24,000 topo.   Wink

Maps or no maps, daddy is all smiles.

lol.  I've already got a Snugli chest pack for while she's small and I've got a lager Eddie Bauer* for when she gets bigger.

Sleep?  I'm not familiar with that activity.  Please explain.   Laughing

Prior to the baby's coming, my wife went into "nesting frenzy" to get the baby's room ready.  Now that the baby is here where does she stay?  In our room.  Laughing

She's a fabulously wonderful little sweetie.  With really good lungs.  Laughing

Congrats again!

Looks like she probably lucked out - not sharing a bday with Rumpled!   Laughing

But, I do share one with Guinness on the 24th.

Jim, you crack me up!!  


sleep?  why??  it's more fun to just stare at the precious miracle before you.  that is, until she never stops crying one day!   Sad   but this too shall pass.

welcome to the next amazing chapter of your life!...
