HelpRe: Dream Family Congrats Round 2!

Rufus and I welcomed our little Sari into the world on November 18! (Grandma was a bit sad at this--she was hoping the baby could share her birthday!) She was named for my sister and dearest friend, Sara, and of course for her papa. It's tradition in my family that the first child is given the husband's middle name as their middle name, regardless of the sex of the baby. Rufus liked that idea, though unfortunately, it's next to impossible to feminize the name Isaac! We tried--Isaakina, Isaaca, Isaacine...in the end, Sarita Isaac was the one that sounded best.
Sari, Rufus, and I are now chilling at home, getting used to these new arrangements. Rufus got paternity leave--I love that it's offered now!--and so we're one happy little family. There have been visitors every day, it seems. Everyone wants to welcome Sari to the world--particularly her Aunt Sara, who seems to like babies much more than she said she did. Sara has pronounced Sari "the second-cutest baby in the world"...after herself, naturally.
And I think it's true. Sari has dark hair, like Rufus and Sara, and her nose isn't nearly so ski-jump-like as mine. She's still got that newborn space alien look, but it's going away and leaving a very beautiful baby! We're saying Sari to sound like "sorry," if you're curious.

Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
See the city's ripped insides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight
