Allow Me to Introduce...

As the long, still silence may have already indicated, we have been quite busy welcoming our new "little one" into the world this past week. Pink or blue is no longer a question with us.

So perhaps it is time to do a proper introduction. On Thursday March 11, 2010 at 11:37 a.m. we finally met the addition to our family...


Ben-Jacob Manuel Richter

3805 g / 55 cm
8lbs 6 oz / 21.6 in

Now is that special time of getting to know one another... just the three of us.

    Liebe Allison!
    Meinen allerherzlichsten Glückwunsch zu eurem Söhnchen! Nun wird es also doch die blaue Kollektion ;-)
    Ich dachte mir schon fast, dass es soweit ist, weil es schon länger so ruhig war hier.

    Was für ein wunderschönes Geschenk zum Frühlingsbeginn!

    Herzliche Grüße
    Daniela!

    Congratulations! I had a 8 pound 6baby too. I love when they come out with some meat on their bones. The more to kiss and nibble on. Yahoo for boys! I hope your labor wasn't too difficult.
