Our daughter is now officially named
Megan Chartley Levett and is measuring between 19+20 inches as of this morning. She has also had no trouble to start nursing and Marnell feels that she'll be a good eater. It's day two for Marni and she is "feeling it", a bit sore and still hasn't had a shower (yet) although she has been on her feet and started to get some real food into her. Ryan got to meet Megan for the first time last night after dinner. It ended up being a short visit because after Ryan met Megan (and got bored with that) he

wanted to climb all over Mom, the bed and get into the rest of the room's untouchable things. The 6th floor was rather quiet too so when Ryan expressed his displeasure of not being allowed to be "king", the whole wing heard it and we decided that it was time to go. He also enjoyed pointing out the baby's nose.
Daddy also got to hold Megan for the first time too since after she was delivered, she had a lot of attention and cleanup going on from the

surgical staff, then spent the afternoon in the NICU getting her numbers looking good before moving onto the 6th floor with Mom.
I must say that I'm disappointed with how the hospital has stopped validating parking for new Dad's and that it costs between $3 + $6 per/visit. That adds up quickly when you want to visit 2-3 times a day. So, we'll have to plan my visits a little better and try to find some parking on the street too, especially during the night visits.

WHOOOO-HOOOO! Congratulations!! What a beautiful baby girl, and such a lovely name, too! I absolutely love "Ryan and Megan." It sounds just perfect. Nice work! I hope the recovery days in the hospital go well, and the transition to home is tranquil. Well, as tranquil as can be hoped for with a newborn and THE KING on your hands!
Thinking of you!

Only in RI ("the gimmee state" ) would you have to pay to park at the hospital. That's what we get when we squeeze ten pounds of crap into a 5 pound city block; someone else's hand in your wallet.
