Our new arrival has joined us! Alan has known the gender of this little one since the fifth month and has kept it a secret through the whole pregnancy, as I did not want to know until delivery. Way to go Alan! So, for all those who have been waiting to hear...we had a.....................girl. Her name is Amanda Sidney, named after two great women in our family who we hope she will draw inspiration from through out her life. She was 7 lbs. 11 oz. and 20 in. long. Her cute hat bow the nurses made for her in the hospital when she was born.
