A Post


Everything is fine with Aria and Gin. Aria is still eating, sleeping, and occasionally crying… and not much else yet. For brief minutes everyday she opens her eyes and looks around.

Here are some photos of Aria and us.

    Oh my goodness. She is so beautiful. She doesn’t even look like a newborn (red, blotchy and wrinkly are what most newborn’s look like.)

    So, who does she take after?

    • Richard says:

      Well, she seems to have Gin’s Cupid Bow lips, and my curly hair. But since everyone says she’s so beautiful, she obviously takes after her mother.

    These photos are so precious!!! I love them. Aria is a beautiful girl and I can see both of you in her. I’m looking forward to hearing stories and seeing pictures of your new adventures with Aria. All my love to you! P.S. Don’t forget to play LOTS of good music for her (NOT teletubbie songs!)

    • Richard says:

      Thanks Sonja. We’re looking forward to having lots of adventures with her. And don’t worry… we’ll only play good music for her (although so far I think all she’s been able to listen to is the opera music they play by the lake… dunno if that qualifies as good or not?).

    She is stunning! A perfect little package. What a gift. I can’t wait to meet Aria! We should do a skype call sometime (do you have access to skype there?) so I can see her live on video!

    Love to all three of you,

    Long lost Steph!

    • Richard says:

      Hi Steph! It is so nice to hear from you. Yes, we should do a Skype call sometime, and yes we have Skype. We have your Skype contact info, so it’s just a matter of finding a mutually convenient time. Email us!

    So wonderful….. beautiful…..I am without words. I want so much to meet her in person! And only fitting that she hears opera music by the lake, since she is named Aria!

    Gin, I send my love and gratitude every day, for the wonderful gift you have delivered to the world. Thank you so much, from the bottom of my overflowing heart. I know you will be a gentle and strong guide for her. I have heard Rics story, and I look forward to hearing your birthing story soon, too.

      Thanks Renee! Of course we think she’s beautiful, and I’m glad other people do too! It’s already going quickly: she’s over three weeks old and getting so much bigger already!

    • Richard says:
