Proud father!

#1

Post by Mr Blonde »

A week ago I became the father of a healthy and precious baby girl: Liselotte (pronounced: lease-a-lot, which is probably what will happen ;) ). She´s kicking our butts -there's so much new stuff to learn- but we´re starting to settle into a rhytm. She is a healthy little person at almost 9 pounds and little over 21 inches tall. The mother is doing very well, despite the cesarian. As you can tell of the cellphone pic I took, I´m already getting her used to a familiar brand name and logo. She´s a couple of hours old here.

Many congratulations Wouter :D
My daughters are the source of never ending joy (and sometimes frustration :p ). I wish you and your wife the very best in your new life with your daughter. I am certain that she will quickly learn the many virtues of being acquainted with the Spyder brand..... I know my kids have :)

Congratulations, Wouter and Mrs. Blond! Is it safe to assume she already has a pink Delica stored away for her somewhere? :D
God Bless Texas!
