Baby Ruth
Baby Girl Rice came a week earlier than planned (that made her 2 weeks early!) Shortly after I left my Richard Peck writing workshop, I went into labor. (We all know Richard Peck is a master of many things, but who knew he had a labor-inducing affect on pregnant women? He has powers far greater than any of us dreamed!)
Baby Girl Rice weighed 8 lb 8 oz, plenty big and ready to be born! C-section went as planned, however, that is not the way to have a baby, if you have any other choice. It only took us one day to come up with a name this time: Ruth Elizabeth. She just looks like a little Ruthy.
She's now 7 days old, and my apologies to those of you who may have children, but this is truly the cutest baby on the planet.
