MAZEL TOV!! A new playmate for Lila and Ruby!!!!!
Re: MAZEL TOV!
Yay! And don’t forget Lila’s promise to be a mother’s helper. How many hours a week can we use her without breaking any child labor laws???
In that bottom photo, are you pointing to get the baby to look at the camera?
Ha!
Congratulations
yeah, she’s already learning to ignore everything daddy says…
Congrats! Many tired days ahead, but they’ll be well worth it. 🙂

Thanks, Sam. So far, so good, with the sleeping, but it’s too early to make any predictions…
They’re a handful, but well worth it. With Missy returning to work and the boys at daycare, I found the house rather empty.

Can’t wait to meet her. Brenda Latterell Posted by: Brenda Latterell on November PM Eric and Lisa, Congrats.
Absolutely Awesome! She is beautiful!!!
Shucks. I couldn’t agree more…
congrats guys! you can look forward to at least 4 hours of sleep every two days now!
Yes, and I’m just waiting for the time she explodes with poop all over my clothes, as you were so kind to warn me about.
Right now the best thing you can do for yourself is sleep when you can, scale back your expectations of what you are “supposed” to accomplish, and take your time acclimating to this new phase of your life.
yay!!!!!!!
Congratulations!
She looks pretty darn cute, that little one.
Can’t wait to hear more.
Love,
Tori

Sending big love,

Martha
You made a person!!!
And she’s lovely! Much love to all three of you…
I know, it really is miraculous. And somehow li’l Phoebe has so far managed not to inherit any of the funny-looking qualities of her dad
Baby!
Congratulations! What a cute lil neice I’ve got now. I’ll have to start saving up so I can spoil her.
Re: Baby!
‘Twas great seeing you and Michael the other day. Phoebe loves her dog book, and her uncle, and is sorry she couldn’t make it to softball. Maybe next week?
Yahoooooooooo!
Yahoooooo!!! I just want to say that over & over. I’m so happy for all three of you, and I’m awed by Sari’s stamina. We can hardly wait to meet this girl! Even Simone was kind of choked up and awe-struck looking at the photos. Lots & lots of love to all of you. . . . and best wishes for some sleep.

Birth Day
Birth Day
by Elise Paschen
Armored in red, her voice commands
every corner. Bells gong on squares,
in steeples, answering the prayers.
Bright tulips crown the boulevards.
Pulled from the womb she imitates
that mythic kick from some god’s head.
She roars, and we are conquered.
Her legs, set free, combat the air.
Naked warrior: she is our own.
Entire empires are overthrown.
Dear Sari, Josh, and Fern (soon to be another name),
Great prologue, can’t wait to get into the meat of the book.
Love,
Anne
Congratulations to all three of you!
Thanks, Nickables!
Congratulations is not a big enough word.
Well put. How about Congratu-fucking-lations?
Shhh. Don’t tell Phoebe her dad said a bad word.
Wahoo!
Great bravery and strength to the whole entire family! 38 Hours of sleep is next…since you’ll none of you will see that much sleep again for years! 😉
More truthy words have never been spoken.
congratulations! she’s beautiful!
Thanks! I agree — but I’m biased.
YAY josh and sari…she is beautiful…very happy for both of you and a good reminder that outside the star chamber of Comic-Con I’ve been at for days, life goes on, people die, babies are born.
NO dying! Only births! More! More! More!
Thanks, Heidi. I think I need a nap.
Congratulations!
Thanks!
congratumatalations!
Best. Jew. Evair.
Send the photos in to Cute Overload at once!!

OOO whatta cute lil bundle!!! much mazel and nachas and tzimis and latkes to ya!

She is awesome (even if she blew her first deadline….)
Congrats you three. Can we have a contest to name her? Give us some letters or parameters, we’ll let the community work it out — you’re worked hard enough (especially Mom).
Here’s a rewind to Sari just a few week ago (scroll down to the bottom):

Congrats — love every minute of your new adventure.
Re: She is awesome (even if she blew her first deadline….)
Thanks, SMITH! Sorry about the name thing, but we worked too hard on compiling and narrowing our list to confuse things with outside suggestions.
Anyway, I think we did pretty well with Phoebe Feuer Neufeld.
Congrats, Josh!
Thanks, Leo. Nice userpic, btw!
Congratulations!!
Get some sleep…

-Ana (from the now defunct Pulp Secret Report!)
Awwww!!! Thanks, Ana.
Sorry to hear about PSR. I hope it wasn’t some karma thing: Phoebe’s birth had to be balanced by Pulp Secret Report’s death…?
Congratulations!
I’m so happy for you all! She is beautiful. I’ll be joining you soon, as I’m due in four weeks. We are having a little girl as well. All the best!

Fanfuggintastic, the both, the thrice of you. Present her at a cliff’s edge to a coterie of Serengeti aminals. If the reference does not immediately spring to mind, as soon as she learns to use a DVD player, which should be by September, oh daddy, will you never forget it again.
I look forward to making goofy faces at the munchkin at some future Rocketship party. Congrats.
Ken A.
Sorry, I’m late, but congratulations to all of you.
She *is* a big baby. That bodes well. As you know our boy was the same weight at birth and he is a total joy.
Yay!
Thanks, Neecy Nee-Nee!
The blessed event has definitely cut into my A.D. production time. Very soon, I must get back to it. After all, we all want to know what happens to you in your apt.!
Thanks, Reid. “Casualnes and calm”—I think you hit it right on the head.
Just read the final installment and it brought tears to my eyes that I didn’t think were there to shed anymore.
Stubborn me is sitting in Algiers Point refusing to leave for Gustav unless they call a mandatory evac (I think it will hit west anyway).
I HATED not being able to go home in 2005.
Thank you for putting this together. I look forward to purchasing the graphic novel.
