Oh fudge - I haven't realize it is already Feb and missed the whole cam watch while clutching pearls marathon. Just as well. I didn't sleep and was devastated when I watched the sad event last time.

So happy to see ground hog baby. Is it a boy or girl?

Congrats to the happy parents and all the aunties and uncles watching.

Oh my gosh such a precious baby!!!

@Yahooey, don't feel bad you aren't the only one that missed the birth.  She fooled us this time and had baby early this morning instead of the middle of night.

It is too soon to tell if it is a boy or girl.  It might be a day or two before we know.  A while ago while baby was in the end stall and Autumn was in the center stall they tried to close the gate between the stalls but Autumn wasn't having it.

Once gender is announced I will post boy or girl.

Not that not remembering means it didn't happen but it seems to me this little one is much more active at 7 hours old than Kiko was.  This one clearly is of the have legs will travel persuasion.  Watching him/her try to run is so funny.  Now s/he just has to master getting up and down without the wobbles.

As an aside, I think every human mother should be extremely thankful that her children weren't walking within an hour and running within seven hours.

Although I suspect we may learn the gender well before the 12th we will have to wait that long to learn its name.  Here is a link to the zoo's announcement about the birth and some additional information:

Is there a link to see the birth or was it off camera? Love the stinkin' cutie pie

@Yahooey, the birth was broadcast live but so far it has not been archived, only Kiko's birth is there.  I'm guessing in the next couple of days it will be uploaded.

If I do come across video of the birth I will post a link.
