It's A Girl!

We are so blessed to welcome our new baby girl to the world. A name is forthcoming...but she was born at 1:28 pm local Hong Kong time and weighed in at 8 pounds (very auspicious). Our midwife was also quick to point out that the phonetics of her time of birth (13:28) is also very auspicious with a meaning in Cantonese of 'eternal prosperity.' Mother and daughter are healthy and happy. More pictures, and a name to follow!

Congratulations! Congratulations! Congratulations! What a blessing for Ingrid to have a sister. And for you Lizzie, to have sisters as children. You and I can be baffled together by this new relationship of sisters that we didn't have, Well, we didn't 'technically' have sisters but you've always kept your friends as close as sisters, so you'll be a pro! Love you!

Wow! Another Girl- congratulations Lizzie and Bob! I'm so excited for you and yes, Ingrid is so, so lucky to have a sister. Maddie will be 5 in January and has been asking quite frequently lately for a baby sister. I'm so happy for you all. Looks like your Mom is there with you too which is such a blessing. You look beautiful as well, by the way. :)

Wow!!! Many, many hugs and kisses are sent to you all... hkfour! I can't believe how active you were up until the delivery. She's a beauty, just like her sister. Congratulations!

Congratulations! She is beautiful and we are so happy for you. As for a name... I have a friend with an Ingrid and a Bridget -- the names seem to go to together quite well.

Can't wait to meet her!
