Welcome to Our Little One


We welcomed our beautiful little daughter 'Eliza Rose' into the world on Wednesday the 1st of October at 1716hrs.

Weight - 7lb 9ozs
Length - 49cms
Head Circ - 34cms
She arrived as planned by caesarean. Eliza gave a beautiful cry right on que and the paediatrician gave her great healthy scores. I did really well and recovered quickly (we came home yesterday morning). It is great to be home with my boys. They are so excited at being big brothers. Little Luc just seems to be in awe and wants cuddles all time (just have to watch the eye poking and rough patting lol). Fin has taken the big brother role on with so much excitement and energy. I'm sure he has grown up so much in the last few days.

We have been so blessed and we thank all of you for your prayers and kind thoughts.
