Introducing Zooey Alice Petty, definitely my best work ever.
She came almost an entire month early! We moved the day before she got here. In the afternoon of the 30th my water broke (or at least we thought because it wasn’t a big gush) and we went to the hospital to check it out. They said it was amniotic fluid, and that means the baby is coming that day. And she arrived on the 31st.
We’re exhausted, but very happy. She was 6 pounds, 3 oz and is doing very well. I might be distracted from knitting and blogging for a bit, but I’ll be back.
