Welcoming Marie

Marie MacKaye Buergel was born 2/24/2012 at 6:33 am. She measured up to 9 lbs 7 oz, 22 inches long, and a 14.5 in head circumference.

Marie was chosen for Marie Curie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Curie). We also appreciated the name because we both have a Mary in our family to honor. MacKaye is after Ian MacKaye (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_MacKaye). This one took us some time because there were many middles names we liked, but were unsure about adding them to Marie (Trillian and Frances were probably the runners up). We had both loved the idea of Ian if this had been a boy, and were pleasantly surprised by the sound of Marie MacKaye, so we decided to run with it. Couldn't have stronger role models, this one.
