Matilda Riley Gustafson arrived at 5:58pm Fridy July 4, 2008. She was 8 pounds, 8.4 ounces, and 21 inches long--a big girl!
Matilda and I are both doing well and should be home soon.
She has light brown hair and light blue eyes. She has a full head of hair, but at the crown she has a top-knot like I did when I was a baby. I think she looks like Ed--at leat she has his nose! She has a very pleasant temprament and only cries if she's dirty or cold--so far. Enjoy the baby goodness-there will be many, many, many pictures in the next few days!

I am very excited to be a great-aunt! And, Katie has a cousin-once-removed (or something like that)! Matilda Riley is so beautiful! Are you calling her Matilda, Riley, Mattie...?
Great Aunt Sally (sounds very eccentric - I should be wearing mixed prints, a crazy hat, knee high socks and tennis shoes! [glad you can't see me])
I've been visualizing, thinking about Matilda since I first saw her. I can't/don't want to get her out of my mind! So Happy! Words can't express my happiness!
Grandpa Jim
