WELCOME TO THE WORLD, PRINCESS LILLIAN TICKY BOX!!!

Princess Tickybox seems even more miraculous to me than most Buffista babies. I remember when Plei was alluding to infertility issues; then one magic day she announced she was pregnant. Then came that awful party where she was whisked off to the hospital and put on bedrest.

Me too, Betsy. I feel like I just let out a breath I've been holding for almost nine months.

I think I have something in my eye....

My, Tickybox has good aim.

What KIND of curry?

Chicken Tikka Masala. Didn't you listen to me? It's a good starter curry. Very flavorful but not hot. You can work your way up to the spicier curries.

I know I haven't posted in a long time, but ...

I just squeaked "Princess Ticky Box" outloud in the office!!! Oh my gosh, so cute!

A friend of mine had a baby on Saturday, and I held him on Sunday, and oh!Baby-so-cute-and-soft-and-little-and-yummy-Squeeee!

Beautiful Lillian!

Wow, Lillian is beautiful.

Paneer is yummy. Indian is one of those foods types that it is just too difficult for my husband to find something on the menu that he can eat (he separates milk and meat and is very picky) so I don't get to indulge in it much.

And, I have just discovered that the crown I must get next month costs more than two tickets from Oakland to Portland (Maine) to Seattle and home again. I haven't asked for any yet, but a little job ~ma for my husband would not be out of place when I have to balance the checkbook and figure out next month's bills.

I think the cheese is wearing Steph and Jess.

We're gonna call her Tickybox for the rest of her life, aren't we?

Well, duh. I know I am.

YOU GO BACK TO BURNING MAN, TOO, HIPPIE!

Well, duh. I know I am.

Why was she named that? Cause of the heartbeat going tick tick tick? Or did Plei think she was supposed to click on her to fill out a poll?

Princess Tickybox is sooo pretty and wee and beautiful!!
