Aria and Kian

We were hearing from people how much Aria and Kian looked alike at birth, and so I created a couple snapshot side by sides of Kian and Aria and their features.
Note: Aria’s "Linus"head is due to her head sitting in the birth canal for 20 hours attempting labor, and then being sucked out with the vacuum attachment. It doesn’t look like it here, but it gave her a little halo, which she has tried desperately to have removed. Her head returned to her normal shape after a day or two.

Some More Pictures

Kian as almost 24 hours old. I have attached some additional pictures from his big day yesterday.

Kian Arrives Triumphant

Kian is here. Just look at that first shot. It is like an Epic Poem.

Kerri is resting with the little guy, and we are getting to know one another.

Vitals: 6 lb 4 oz 19 "

We will post more images soon.

BTW-

Kian shares his birthday with Elvis. There was a cardboard full size cutout of The King in the Giftshop. We will have to take a picture.

Final Show of Aria's Solo Act

Aria would like to wish everyone a thankful goodbye from the Spotlight.
Her 2 1/2 year run has been wonderful, and she would like the thank all of the little people who have made it happen for her. She will be assuming a shared production for the remainder of her career with a reoccuring role as "Big Sister". She thinks that this ensamble cast offers her a chance to meld her talents with a new comer to the stage- some young upstart named Kian. The production heads have promised her equal billing, though they made no promises regarding the media reaction to the new cast member.
In leau of gifts, Aria has requested that a fund be created to secure her treasures which will be subject to considerable harm and disarray during the near future.

Well, we are very excited and a bit trepidaceous today. We are packing up for a long weekend at the Hospital. Aria will be able to spend most of the time at Gammy Lewis' house a few miles away from the Hospital, and she is looking forward to that. Kerri is a bit nervous as this is a scheduled C-Section, and we know it will happen as to having it be of necessity with Aria. So basically it is the same without all the drama and frustration of waiting for dilation that wasn't happening fast enough and the fluctuations in fetal heart rate that we had for 20 hours before Aria's eventual C-Sec.

We will post pictures as soon as possible. We are taking the laptop to the Hospital so I can post pictures ASAP, as I know many are anxious to see the KIWI.

Stay tuned to this channel in the next few days.
