Birth Announcements!

[capretta]

I really like the format of the August DDC list - with brief listing and links to threads with more information. Hopefully nobody minds if I take the liberty of setting up our own birth announcement thread.

Please let me know if I miss anyone or make a mistake.

[mythik]

Thanks for doing this! I like it.

[Leiahs]

I know it doesn't really matter, but I love to see the birth weights on lists like this, too.  Do you think we could add that?

(And omigosh, I can't believe we have babies to announce already!)

[capretta]

Leiahs: Sure, I can do that! Doesn't look like we have that info for Corbin, but I'll add it when/if I have it.

[Katico]

This is great - love that it links to the announcement thread!

Yay!!

[lifeguard]

Yeah!!!! I'm SO excited to see this thread get nice & long!

[nicolian]

I love the idea. Thanks for doing it!

[corrabelle]

OH man. It's happening! The BABIES ARE COMING!!!

[Leiahs]

I was just checking here because I was telling DH how surprised I am to have one of the first few babies on the board (I really thought I'd end up closer to mid-October!).  Just wanted to ask you to change Malcolm's birthdate to the 29th - it *felt* like the 28th to me, but he was born 2:11am on the 29th.    Also, you can add his middle name - we decided on Malcolm Reed.  :)

[capretta]

Sure thing, Leiahs.

[AKChix0r]

Love this - thanks!

Still not a fan of having the first baby though... If we ever give Corbin a sibling, I'm keeping my legs crossed until 37 weeks!

[yellowdart]

Hey, thanks for keeping up with this!  So many lovely babies.  Julia was 7 lbs 8.8 oz and 19 inches.
