A new daddy is flying high literally.
Atlantis atronaut Randolph Bresnick got the great news Sunday morning that his wife Rebecca had given birth to their daughter. The couple named her Abigail; both mother and child are doing fine. The Bresnicks have a three year old son they adopted from the Ukraine.
He and the rest of the shuttle crew were awakened Sunday by the song, "Butterfly Kisses." Mrs. Bresnik chose it for her husband. Among the lyrics: "There's two things I know for sure/She was sent here from heaven and she's daddy's little girl."
During a spacewalk on Saturday the 42-year-old Marine installed antennas and other equipment outside the International Space Station Saturday. This is his first spaceflight.
