Congratulations! You have been blessed with...Xandra Marie is a newborn baby girl from the USA. She is quiet most of the time, but sometimes she really "cranks it up". Here is her picture:

One Year UpdateDespite requiring an operation to open her clogged tear ducts, at nearly a year old Xandra is as happy and healthy as we can wish. Already she is becoming quite a handful, knocking over fragile objects and attempting to break into the cabinet under the kitchen sink. We hope she will be walking and talking soon, and we are preparing for her upcoming birthday.The rest of the family is doing fine. Danny was accepted to UC-Berkeley, which became his first choice after he realized that it was a better match than Dartmouth. He is enrolled for the fall and plans to major in biomedical engineering. Carina closed down her OB-GYN office, both because of the rising cost of insurance and to spend more time with Xandra. Nick suffered a stress fracture in his shin and had to quit soccer, but he has more or less recovered and plans to play next season. Alex is currently spending a summer abroad in Spain, and is planning to have his host family visit New York sometime in the winter.
