Jane just called to tell me that Lissa's little girl is here! At Jane's direction, I managed to reach the happy mother on her cell phone, although we were cut off before I could get details about size and weight. Lissa said the labor was a bit long, but happy, and all is going well. Not surprisingly, the new little one looks like her sister, Rose! The 3-D sonogram did not lie!
As I learn more, I will let you know!

Baby has not stopped nursing long enough to be weighed, but she was born at 9:12 am!
We are ecstatic beyond words for this beautiful new baby to be born on Good Friday! I too have a Good Friday Bairn (he's now 4) and it is so joyous, as they ALL are! Congrats to the happy family, please pass on our good wishes for that new sweet baby!
