Louisa Kane (aka Lulu) born today at Waitakere Hospital. The ends a gargantuan 48 hours of labour, and we are glad it's all over.
Our little girl was born around 2:20 this afternoon (19th July 2005) and is (as far as we can tell) healthy. Weight 3.5kg (about average for blokes who don't care). We are as yet undecided on a middle name for Louisa - at this stage it's unlikely to be "Frank".
Baby was delivered via Caesarian section, as it wasn't going to come out any other way. Kirstin is doing well, and has a big smile on her dial.
Here is a brief video clip of Louisa doing gaa gaa baby stuff in her cot. Disclaimer: This clip isn't going to win oscars so I don't want to hear complaints about wasting 10 mins of your life downloading something with little / no creative value. However, if you think newborn babies are cute, or you want to have a better look at our new bub, then this might appeal.
