	One member of the family that's not too sure about Lucia's birth is Daisy Pup. (Or as one friend put it, our first-born fur-child.) She is very curious about the new arrival, but she has been restrained from doing more than sniffing for now. We hope that Daisy will soon adjust to Lucia's presence before too long. At any rate, she's been staying with Grandpa and Robbie for now, so she's being made a fuss over.	One Daisy Pup

	Peanut's actual due date was 15 (or 17) February. We're particularly pleased that she decided to arrive early because Marina had early signs of toxemia, and had been ordered to bed rest for the remaining week +. Well, we finally have some photos, now that the camera has a new battery. We also had the regular photos put on CD for us - ain't technology a grand thing? At any rate, here are some photos of immediately after the birth - not the most photogenic time but a most joyful one.	Lucia & Daddy
	Lucia's nicknames already are Peanut, Calamity, Chia Pet, Luke or Lukey-Chia.
