We learned a new word - ‘mona’ - that means ‘pretty’ or ‘cute.’ It’s a little funny too, because it also means ‘girl monkey.’

So here’s our cute little girl monkey, catching some sleep with her mono - ‘boy monkey.’

And in blanco y negro…

Two days after all the trauma, Rebecca is looking good.

Looking good, and looking after…

This is what a two-day-old nameless baby looks like in lime green, in case you were ever asked.

This baby has a strong left foot, or maybe a strong right foot. Hard to tell. Maybe she’s ambidextrous, or amphibious…

El bebé was showing no signs of going anywhere, so eventually she had to be from her mother’s womb untimely ripped, as the man said. Pausing only to grab a stripey hat, it was off for a pigout. You’re nobody in this town without a hat.

This is where the pig snorting began. Since we were unsure of a name for her at this point, she became Piglet. If she had been a boy, we would have had a bunch of names from which to choose. Girl’s names are tricky. Stripey hats and clothing are either the way babies are dressed or it’s the fashion this year.
