My niece
Meet Katherine Margaret - born June 29th, daughter to proud (and possibly exhausted) Lynne and Derek, niece to yours truly (who can take none of the credit!). Wow. Congratulations for the millionth time to you both.
Stats for those who can interpret them: 3678g / 8lb 1.7oz, 52.1cm / 20.5 inches
It feels a lot more real seeing a photo now, although of course reality will come when I can hold her. And that will be just one point in her life/growth, I expect every time I meet her I'll be meeting a new person. The world is changing - or perhaps just following its natural cycle.
That came home to me last week here. On the same day it was Ricardo's daughter's 1st birthday (she's sort of our project baby since she was born during a drilling day) and a funeral in town as well. Mixed emotions, the only way to deal with it is to celebrate life. The wheel turns.

Oh honey, SO many congratulations! So much excitement! And goodness, aren't we grownup..
Congratulations might be misplaced - I didn't do anything!! Am sure the right people will read them though.
Not sure about the growing up, this may well lead me to regress. But excitement yes!
