Ruby Alexandra Makes Her Debut








Our hearts all grew a little more as our baby girl came into this world at 1:46 am Saturday, September 3rd. Labor was relatively short - about 4.5 hours from 1st contraction until her arrival. We arrived at the hospital at 12:40am and experienced a fairly harrowing hour before our beloved Ruby was born. Ruby weighed in at an impressive 9lbs 1 oz and was 20 inches long.

Big Sister Luciana is in awe of her little sis. She is very happy that she got what she wanted, a little sister, as opposed to a little brother - I think we all thought I was carrying a boy and were trying to prepare Looch for that, but she insisted it would be a girl. As part of her new big sister responsibilities, Miss Luci has agreed to share her blog with Ruby. We will do our best to update the blog with stories about our daughters and the Goose Family.
