Little Baby Alice

So Char's oldest sister, Emily, had her baby girl this morning, (9 days overdue poor thing).
Her husband Zack called us this morning to let us know they are both doing fine. They named the baby Alice, no middle name as of yet, she was 21 inches long and was over 8 lbs. No pictures.
We'd go down to see her, but I'm still too sick, and from what I remember, newborns and illness don't mix well. So we hope to be able to see them next weekend. Heidi Anne is very much like me, she loves babies!!!

Fun Thoughts

--Alice, from the Old French name Aleydis, itself a short form of the German name Adeleide.
--The meaning of the name Adeleide & Alice is Noble
--Both girls have names from Classical children's books, Alice in Wonderland & Heidi
--Alice is the Patron Saint of the Blind and Paralyzed
--Elise is another spelling of Alice

So the girls have their names and meanings intertwined, and we didn't even try for it!!
Adeleide Annelise & Alice, sooo cute! Can't wait to see her!
