It's a girl!!!

We received the referral of a beautiful baby girl we are naming Gabriella. She was born on 9-1-06 and weighed 5lb 1oz. She is so tiny at just 42.6 centimeters. She has a head circumference of 31 cm. We are so excited. I am to try to attach a picture but forgive me if it doesn't work!

Oh and did anyone's baby have about the same measurements and if so how big is he or she now? Our Gabriella is such a tiny little peanut and we are wondering about clothes sizes and if she is going to be so tiny for ever.

What a beauty - congratulations!!! I second the advice to wait a month or two before you decide she really is such a peanut - my guy was only 5 lbs at birth (and 3 cms longer than Gabriella), but as of 2.5 months was pushing the scales at 10 lbs 12 ozs.
