Sierra Mahealani McCarty, born September 21, 1999

Faster than Eddy Murphy in "48 Hours" and possibly grist for the Guinness Records, Sierra in Hawaii had her own home page, complete with photos, made in Japan by Uncle Steve. This is her story:

Hi everyone,

Well the time came and I've made my grand entrance. I'm feeling great and mom and dad say I'm perfect! (heck, I knew that). Mom's sore, but she's a trooper and dad's staying with her all the time. I know girls don't like to talk about their weight but I came in just right at 7 lbs.9 oz., so I'll brag. Anyway I've included a couple of pictures below so you can see my pretty face and proud papa. More pictures later. Can't wait to meet you all.

Aloha,

Sierra Mahealani McCarty

Hi everyone, it's little me again.

Just thought you might like to see me now that my eyes are open. I still can't see much yet but I like to listen to mom and dad talking and fussing over me. Oh, life is good, sleeping, eating and getting lots of attention over my dirty diapers! Yesterday was my first big day out. I went to two malls, the hospital (my newest friend was born) and we even went to a wedding too. It's a big world out there and I'm going to keep exploring it.

Aloha,

Sierra "si-si" McCarty
