a new life

Our new baby was born in the wee hours of the morning yesterday. We are home now and just reeling from the excitement of welcoming this new life. Here are a few photos from our first few hours together. More photos and some birth stories to come soon... I have to get back to swooning over this baby and enjoying the sheer giddiness of becoming a mother of four!

Congratulations Jill and Mike! He is so beautiful! I'm sorry I didn't make it to the hospital. Had a bit of a sniffle, probably just allergies but didn't want to take any chances. I can't wait to meet him and give you a great big hug! Much love from Rob and I to your whole family. xo
