Vital Statistics

he first question people ask after you say, "It's a girl!" is: "How much does she weigh?" Sarah's dad thinks this is a strange question.

Nobody ever asks how much his 11-year-old, 8-year-old, 6-year-old, 4-year-old or 2-year-old daughters weigh -- not anymore, not since the days of their births. On that day this datum is of special interest, especially to women.

So here you go, ladies:

• Date of Birth: Friday, June 1, 2007
• Time of Birth: 12:13 p.m.
• Location: Rush Hospital in Chicago, Illinois
• Weight: 8 lbs. 12 oz.
• Length: 20 in.
• Apgar Scores: 9 and 9

And now that you know how much water Sarah Paraskeva would have been likely to displace had her parents consented to her being given a bath immediately after birth, you can express your admiration for her dimensions on her daddy's blog, Square Zero.
