The New Baby (that isn’t mine) May 19, 2008

Posted by Emily in : Friends, Texas , add a comment

Daniel and Lydia had their baby last Monday (exactly one week ago) in Fort Worth, Texas.  I am a little late posting this, but I am not entirely lame because I am posting about it now.

This is the paragraph where I would write about how fun and cute she is, and how the new parents are coping.  But since I fled Texas about two weeks ago, I can’t tell you about any of that stuff because I am not there to exaggerate write about this exciting time for them.

David and I are so proud of them.  Not only did they birth a baby after 14 years of swearing off kids, but they ACTUALLY DECIDED ON A NAME.  The LG – DBT household did not give their child 10 first names, or even two last names . . . I am still in shock over that one.  The name was undecided (even the last name) until she was born.  I’m just so glad her parents MADE a decision and I can call her by name instead of “Lydia and Daniel’s baby.”

Here she is:

Darby Rose.  Born Monday, May 12, 2008.  Weighing in at 7 lbs. 11 oz.

She is so cute!  I just want to kiss those cheeks and touch her soft hair!  Congratulations Daniel and Lydia!  We’re so glad you are part of the “parenting world!”
