The last two days

We were set to leave hospital on Thursday 18th. Terry and Sue O'Neill popped in early evening for a visit whilst Leslie and Pancake were awaiting release. Leslie and I were discussing the release title of the current production and eventually decided on Stella Lucia(loo-chee-ah). Stella really named herself. As of this time her eyes only come out at night. Her middle name is in honour of Leslie's dear mother Lucille whom was actually named named Lucia. There is an interesting back story as to why her name became anglicised.

We eventually got home via the grocery store at about midnight. Stella then proceeded to keep us up the rest of the night although now she seems to be settling. She is feeding regularly and well from the bottle. I'm a little sad that she will not just stay as she is, small, perfectly formed and beautiful, I'm so in love. Soon Stella will be to large to hold in one arm

Many visitors have been and gone. On behalf of Leslie and I thank you all for the kind gifts, remarks and reassurance that you have all given.
