Leafy's debut and life at the house of Mama

Hi all...Z's mama here! I wanted you all to know that I spoke to shakenmama today and all is well in the land of Leaf. She is a champion nurser and I got to hear her demonstrate the strength of her lungs over the phone. Her mama is resting comfortably and enjoying her meals in bed.

Many thanks to Mr. Shakenmama, who took a moment between visiting with his new daughter and taking his two elder ones to the park to send along the following photos of Leaf's first hours in the world. I knew that you all would want to see them! Needless to say, she is absolutely beautiful and she looks like her sisters.

Mama is spending lots of time pondering her new addition...






...and Daddy is loving the newest guest at their "my little pony party"






In other news, all is well at the house. Z and I stopped by to visit the girls and we all had a birthday party for the new baby, complete with the cupcakes that Z insisted we make this morning for the occasion. Everyone is in great spirits and Z and the Chebs were very happy to share the news of "their" new sister:
