It's a Girl!

Only 4hrs of active labor, born at 8:44pm, inches from where Shaw was born at our house. 9lbs, 2oz. We're calling her Ivy. We're all going to sleep safe and sound.

The actor Leonard Nimoy, (Spock on Star Trek, and so much more) died this day as well.  I can think of no better way to remember this hero of mine, then the arrival of our own alien to this world.

Ivy, may you live long and prosper.

Ivy. A few seconds old

As Nimoy said in an interview, "I didn't become an actor to become famous, I did it to make an impact." I feel the same way about daddy blogging today. Lets all stick together and help each other though the amazing job of parenting!
