MY BLOOD
Didn't I just get through telling you all that we Whitney's don't like waking up?
She's so my blood...
Welcome (9 days early!!!) Clara Blake Goodrich.
5lbs, 11 oz.
Born 11/22/09 at 7:49am.
I'm headed to San Diego tomorrow for what was supposed to be a week getting ready for Clara with my sister...but alas, I guess I have to kiss her cheeks instead.
See here for more pics from Daddy's phone...
And let me just take this opportunity to apologize in advance for the inevitable picture fest that shall ensue for, well...the rest of my life.

Congratulations Aunt Cannie!
(and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!)
Man, look at all these kids you are going to have to be an aunt to! You might as well have some of your own, just so they can have cousins.
ohhhh TEENY. so beautiful - congratulations, auntie.
born into pain
to know the torturous angst of waking
at the very first moments of life
to leave that viscous habitat
all warm and quiet
into a cold, florescent world
where sound isn't absorbed
it's a biting reverberation
the only solace of this time
must be breastfeeding
and an aunt who smells like hyacinth, blows a shushing whispers of hot air on the ear and creates a new womb in her arms.
Oh, congratulations! Give Teresa our best and pamper the heck out of her.
Ah... She's so alive, so brilliant and fearfully made. Many many blessings to her parents; for rest and recovery - and to you on your visit and journey back; we expect copious photos of your baby niece and NO less!
