Hello World
Sadie Rose Ellis
Born September 29, 2004, same day as first X-Prize attempt, at 1:59 PM eastern time.
7 lbs 11 oz (not 9 lbs estimated by ultrasound), and 20” long.
Ended up via C-section, as indicated in the previous post. My apologies if the abrupt
nature yet logical end of a progression followed by a lack of instant updates made anyone
anxious.
She’s healthy, happy, beautiful, with a full head of dark hair and mystery blue-ish newborn
eyes. She’s stronger and more coordinated than typical for a newborn, and recognized my
voice as soon as she heard it.
Here are some of the pictures I took today with the digital camera. Displayed is 400 pixels wide. Click the picture for an 800 pixels wide version. Click the text link below for an insanely huge, high resolution version as taken by the camera.
It’s not easy composing a post like this without my normal tools, on the laptop, while taking care of the baby with Deb, who is confined to bed. More eventually… (and we’ll probably put most such things at the baby’s blog instead of here when we update further).
