Welcome to the world baby girl!
We are proud and relieved to announce the safe arrival of the newest member of our family. Adele (pronounced ah-dell) Virginia was born a little after 3pm (vaginally) and weighs 3lbs 2.8oz. She is breathing room air without assistance and is currently in the special care area but didn't need to go to the more intensive NICU because she is doing so well. APGARs are scores given to babies given at birth to measure well being. The maximum score is 10 and she got an 8 which is excellent for a her age.

She is absolutely beautiful! We are elated that she is here and healthy. Congratulations to Louise and Ben. Fiona is no longer "the baby."

We just showed our kids their new cousin, and Nico took one look and said, "Where's Fiona?" So I pointed out the picture of Fiona in your sidebar. :D
Bravo, as we say in French!
And something tells me she will be very good at maths...
Louise, she is absolutely beautiful. Looking at her in the movie, I can tell she is doing so very well ... her eyes are open and alert and not even a nasal canula! I bet she'll come home at 34 weeks! Congratulations and welcome to the world little Adele! Zoe and I cannot wait to meet you!
