Say hello to the newest member of the McDonald-Young clan Aoife (ee-fah) Maralynn! She was named in honor of here great great grandmother Effie Drury who made the trip from Ireland. Funny how much a name can change when you enter the sates, as the Americans didn't know how to pronounce Aoife, so she became Effie. And Maralynn was the spelling my grandmother prefered during the second half of here life, no immigration to blame just the mind of an eccentric woman!
6 pound 12 ounces and 19.5 inches long seems a tad light for the 36 hours of labor before my wife had to go the route of a ce-section.
Congrats to all of you.
