welcome to Alexandra Rose

[calimac]

While I was out lunching on Chinese noodle soup - the heroic excursions I make for the sake of the Potlatch restaurant guide - I became, unbeknownst to myself until hours later, once again a great-uncle or a grand-uncle or whatever it is that I am. 9 lbs, 6 oz, 20.5 inches, first grandchild to the last of B's brothers to achieve that status. I expect to meet the kid at Christmas!
