We just got back from the hospital after meeting our precious little niece. She's soooooooooooooo tiny and is just as beautiful as her mommy. She's going to break some hearts for sure.
She is named after a lot of people in her family. Ida was Dave and Mike's grandmother's name. Rose is Bernie's middle name. And there's a Mary in the family someplace, too. Anyway, I think the name is beautiful and we all know how I feel about names with familial significance. =)
Dave's parents drove down to Davis this morning so we could all go together to visit the new family. They hadn't seen Eddie since the first week of January and he's grown so much physically, developmentally...and vocally. As long as Eddie couldn't see or hear me he was happy as a clam playing with them (he's been super clingy lately and if I'm around he ONLY wants MAMA, no substitutions). It was a great visit and we all had a good time hanging out, even if was for only a few short hours.
Right before we left for the hospital, I pulled my back out. Not wanting to miss seeing baby Zennie I popped some ibuprofen and took my heating pad along (with a charger adapter) in the car. I'm beginning to think the universe is trying to tell me something since it keeps throwing all these challenges my way lately (breast infection, fried hard drive and irretrievable files, and now my back). Oy. Dave is going to stay long enough tonight to bathe and bed Eddie and with any luck my back will be better by morning so I can face the long/hectic week ahead.
