The Phoebster

Much excitement over the Easter weekend, largely thanks to the arrival of my new niece, Phoebe Elizabeth Cross, in the family. As you can see, she is a wee sweetheart in a just-born kind of way. Amy needed a little bit of extra tlc after the birth but is doing just fine now. I particularly enjoyed being able to do the webcam thing and thus to see her in all her sleepy-eyed glory.

We were up at Avoca for the weekend, mainly sleeping and playing canasta. Lovely.

Oh, Jeanne, what a strange way I had to take to meet you!
