they say that c-section babies are prettier because they aren't pushed and jammed and deformed on their way out the birth canal. maybe that's the case. maybe she's just lovely herself.

while i was busy saddening my sorry ass yesterday, angela was busy becoming beautiful in the world. she's gorgeous. even though she's a sickly little thing that lost two pounds in the last week to arrive at 5 lbs 9 oz. she's been tied up to tubes and oxygen and whatnot since yesterday afternoon, but she's fine. the three of them make such a perfect little family. she's got meg's eyebrows, hair, and chin. and jerry's ears. i think she might have my george foreman nose, at least temporarily. poor gal.

i've held maybe two babies in my whole life. big bouncing blaring babies. i was so nervous holding her that i forgot to rock OUT.
