Girl pictures

Truth be told, when the little hobbit popped out, Michael Delving was wholly unprepared for the arrival of a girl. While the hobbit wife and baby hobbit were sleeping, Auntie Jen went and purchased an armload of girl clothes.
The Mayor could not wait to go out and get a sign to hang outside Michael Delving announcing the happy news.

The Mayor's little princess. The tiara was purchased when she was 8 hours old. The Mayor has made an executive decision that applications along with references and background checks for boys wishing to date this little girl will not be accepted for the next 30 years.

Big brother Boookie has not yet seen his sister. He is spending a few days down on Fox Island with GranDma and Ah-pooh, and they will be bringing him back on Wednesday. He is only dimly aware that "Baby tummy" is now "Baby A-sid." As he was leaving on Sunday with GranDma, Auntie Jen told him that Baby is coming. Boookie asked "Baby car?" since when he is told that Daddy or Auntie or GranDma is coming, that usually involves an automobile.

Here is a picture of Boookie when he was being measured.
And here is Ela being measured. There is definitely some family resemblance going on.
