A Way, Way, Way Off-Topic Post

February 17, 2009 in Bride Blogging,Uncategorized with 25 Comments

Teeny Manolo scooped the news that I had my baby girl, but I wanted to share one of the first pictures of Paloma right here on Manolo for the Brides.

Baby Paloma

We’re doing wonderfully, though at a mere 34 weeks, Paloma is currently bunking in the NICU until she learns to do the things that many full term babies can do right away. We’re very much looking forward to the day that she can come home and I can start fostering a love of all things wedding in my daughter!

    Congratulations! She is beautiful. And no worries on the early arrival. My youngest decided 33 weeks was long enough, thank you very much. Perfectly normal in every way. Enjoy these days!!!

    Congrats on your beautiful daughter. And I love that little pink hat on her (I think that shade only works for those under 12).

    Congrats, NtB! Best wishes. The NICU time is overwhelming, but will be a memory soon enough. (My oldest was 35 1/2 weeks when she arrived, and the little one was 25 weeks.) She is gorgeous, just like her mommy!

  17. Margaret February 23, 2009 at 2:40 pm #

    NtB, she is adorable. Congratulations. And, what a fabulous name!

    (By the way, I arrived at 32 weeks, and am now 29 and getting spliced in 11 weeks time, so don’t worry about her, she’ll be fine.)
