Rick, Myriam, Ben and Genevieve are thrilled to welcome a new baby!
This is Ellie being weighed at the hospital. She was a lot bigger than
everyone thought, including Myriam who should have
guessed from how uncomfortable she was at the end. She had tons of
hair and had absolutely no enthusiasm for the
process.
Here she is with Myriam. The IV only looks painful. Totally enchanting baby.
Myriam and Ellie at home, at about a week (she still has her cord)
Genevieve and Eleanor on the couch. She's mostly pretty good with her,
though she still has this idea that
she is a doll.
Rick and Eleanor in front of way too much computing equipment.
Eleanor in fuzzy slippers... Ben put them on her. She fits on one couch cushion.
Ben, Myriam and Eleanor. Ben is really, really good with Ellie. He also
chose her whole name!
Here's Ellie doing what she does best... Sleeping. We were a little
worried since she slept so
much more than our other kids... She's waking up, but still incredibly
calm and mellow.
Gratuitous picture of Ben, our seven year old.

baby bed. Ellie sleeps in the big bed.
