from a proud dad: and then there were four !
In the early hours of Sunday January 30th, Alanna Amelie arrived into this world naturally, comforted by the warmth of the water in birthing pool, assisted by the expertise of our midwife So-san and the courage, strength and immense love that only a mother can muster.
Weighing 3650 grams and measuring 50 cm., Alanna is as healthy as can be. Mayra has taken to her role of big sister like a fish to water and can’t seem to give enough kisses and hugs to her little sister.
Both mother and daughter are fine and will stay a couple more days at the Matsugaoka Birth Center resting and getting to know each other. Dad will then take time off to work welcome the family home and spend time together.
Brechtje, Mayra and I are over the moon to have Alanna with us and want to share this wonderful news with all of you.
