Growing and growing...


Fiona is growing by leaps & bounds: on the 13th she weighed in at 9lbs 9oz, so she now well outweighs Wilbur (who is suitably wary)... She had a chance to meet her "G-Pa", continues getting to know her "Grammie" (Charlotte's parents), and recently "enjoyed" her first bath, which we documented for posterity. We still can't tell what color her hair or eyes are going to be. Her hair is a reddish light brown but seems to be brightening up since she was born. Her eyes are a steel blue, but they seem to be lightening up with time. Jeff posted some more photos here.

Welcome Fiona!

On February 23rd at 8:27 PM, Fiona Boettiger Cooney finished her long journey into the world. She weighed 7 pounds 12 ounces, was 20 3/8 inches long, and was born at 41 weeks and 1 day. We delivered at UNC Hospital in Chapel Hill with the midwife service, and everything went wonderfully. Here are some photos from Fiona's first days!
