Baby's day out!

I am in Manipal hospital on the 11th floor in a suite with my absolutely beautiful niece all bundled up in soft blue quilt blissfully sleeping and her mother beside her. Yesterday after causing quite a frenzy my sister delivered this bundle of joy at 22:07 hrs. There were few complications during labour and my mom and myself and chechi were standing and praying hard in the outside corridors. We broke into tears when my brother-in-law rushed out of the delivery room bursting with the happy news. 'Its a gal', and he literally choked on his own words.. and then the nurses got the baby outside. The baby was so pink and so ga-ga-goo-goo. I've no idea what exactly it means.. but thats the word that comes to my mind. Our langugage has taken quite a turn. We've all resorted to baby talk, and all sorts of cooing noises and funny all of us can exactly understand what the other person means.. should do it more often I feel, very meditative.

There is going to be a series of this post as and when I can find time to write in. Quite delighted to be an aunt, I say!

Oh! she just had her first poop!
