Welcome Olivia!

















FInally have a name for our little girl - Olivia Dulcie Gwynne.


From the top
1. Olivia content in Nanny's arms
2. Matilda playing with her Doll in the pram - I think she was going shopping

3. Me with Olivia on one of our first days at home

4. Annabelle giving Olivia 'cuddles' in the morning

5. Matilda doing the same - this is a very cute ritual whereby they both ask for cuddles with Olivia and then start saying 'Matilda first' or 'Annabelle first' while scrambling up to the couch to be the first to be seated and get a cuddle

6. Olivia snuggling with her Dad

Little Sister!!!








Our gorgeous little girl (we are still thinking of a name) was born on 5th September 2009 at 3.45am. She weighed 4020 kg (8 pound, 14 ounces), was 55cm long, was delivered naturally and is absolutely perfect. As you can see by the photos she has a head full of brown hair which is so funny - I dont think the girls had this much hair at age one!! Annabelle and Matilda are facinated by their 'little baby sister' and continually touch her hands and feet and love to play with her car seat capsule (they try and pick it up and tell me they are going shopping for yoghurt and icecream with the baby car seat).
The top photo is of her at one day old, while still in the hospital. The next three are taken when she was 4 days old. The last one was the best I could get - the big girls (Matilda in green) kept looking down and the baby was getting hungry. Not the best time to try and take a photo!
I am doing really well too, tired, but other than that feeling pretty good.
