I'm so happy for them and so glad they had a girl after three boys:) ! My unternet hasn't been working since Friday and all weekend I have been wondering if they had the baby yet.

When Cristina and Ireane leave the hospital?

Can someone help me out a bit more on the Spanish pronunciation of Irene...is it a "long" e and then "ray" and then "nuh"? or is it a "long" e and then "ray" and then "nay"? Sorry to be so ignorant. I have been twisting various sounds around on my tongue and certainly agree with lucys that the name appears to be much prettier sounding in Spanish - despite whichever way it is pronounced! - than in English. Thanks for any help!

Your second pronunciation is closer.

You should click on Editorial and then "Search all Editorial". Then on the left side will be a search option where you can insert a name. Hope it works for you now....:)

It was said they would be there for 3 days, so, it's later today or tomorrow.

She will leave the hospital tomorrow and this afternoon the Princes and Princess of Asturias are expected to go to Barcelona to meet little Irene.
I don't think these photos of the hapy father and brothers going to visit yesterday have been posted. They are from Reuters via yahoo.com

Princes of Asturias visit their new niece
EFE/Madrid
Princes of Asturias have arrived minutes before the 18:30 hours at the Teknon clinic from Barcelona to meet their neice Irene, the daughter of the Dukes of Palm that was born Sunday the past. The Princes have arrived at the clinical center in a car that drove Don Felipe and when lowering of the vehicle they have saluted to some of the people who waited for their arrival in the door of the enclosure. Some 200 people they had congregated themselves to the entrance of the clinic to see the arrival of the Princes, in whom they have welcomed with applause and complimentary commentaries. Doña Letizia dressed a suit trousers gray color and maintained in the hand a blue package, apparently a gift for new born. Don Felipe and Doña Letizia have traveled to the Condal City from Madrid, after attending the lunch that the Kings have offered in the Palace of the Zarzuela to the ex- president of the United States Bill Clinton.
