Thanks everyone!

Jayelle is doing great, still in the hospital until tomorrow, but feeling really good. Maggie is also doing well, and getting cuter by the day. Here's another pic for you:

Thank you everyone! Home from the hospital! Tired, but good.
This little girl had AMAZING timing. I went into labour just as my mom arrived in town, so she was able to look after Ginny.

For those who don't know, Isolde is also from arthurian legend and is often seen as an older version of the character of Guinevere. So our girls names are connected that way - don't know what we'll do if we have a 3rd girl!


Truth be told, it was Naomi's name that was on our short list, but in the end, we chose Maggie after Paul's grandmother and my aunt who passed away recently.
One Duck to rule them all.

Well, I like to think that the universe was pushing you towards my name, what with the timing and all. But I totally understand going with a family name. Maggie is adorable. :)

She is delightful! (I also really, really love the name!)
you snooze, you lose
well I have snozzed and lost
I'm pushing through
I'll disregard the cost
I hear the bells
so fascinating and
I'll slug it out
I'm sick of waiting
and I can
hear the bells are
ringing joyful and triumphant
