Maite Alessandra

Friday, April 4th, 2008

Day 1, Hour 1My wife gave birth to our beautiful baby girl on March 18th — which also happened to be our second wedding anniversary. Our baby was born at 3:07am and weighed 6 pounds, 11 ounces, and measured 19.75 inches in length. We named her Maite Alessandra. Both mother and baby are home now and doing very well.

I’ve posted a few more photos of her on Flickr.

Four weeks to go!

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

My wife and I are going to be parents in about four weeks. Her due date is March 13th, but you know how that goes: give or take several days. We’ve been preparing for a few months now, but we have only just begun to set up the nursery. We pretty much have everything its just a matter of assembling furniture and setting things up. Guess what I’ll be doing this three-day weekend. Anyway, expect a lot of more posts on babies and fatherhood.

Some frequently asked questions we get are:

Boy or girl?
Girl.

When is she due?
March 13th.

Where will she be born?
San Francisco, CA

Have you picked out a name for her?
No, we haven’t decided on a name. We have a short list of names that we like and we’ll probably decide on one when she is born to see which one fits her best. We’re still taking suggestions so let us know if you have a cool, exotic name.

Can you tell me the names you’re thinking of?
No. They are a secret.
