Drew's happy to still be *the* man of the house. And that most flattering of all pictures: the one taken in the moments just after giving birth...

Us girls. G's taking the disappointment of not getting a little brother rather well, and though there are pangs of jealousy now and then, BB's warming up to Z. I tend to think BB suffered more terribly at my seemingly inexplicable disappearance than anything. When they came to visit me in the hospital that same afternoon, i.e. after giving birth, BB laid her head on my shoulder for a full ten minutes.

With AhPoh, who's visiting, i.e. helping out *a lot*, until the end of the month.

The girl in question. It's funny how all babies – at least all three of my girls have – make the same faces when only a few days old. Already I've recognized the Yoda lips; and of course the gaping fish mouth (when hungry).

Another look at Z, still sleeping.
