Gabriele Alice Bouwma

Happy Family, originally uploaded by deniseakob.

Well, we never expected to post this already, but we have a birth announcement for you all:

Gabrielle Alice Bouwma was born November 17, 2010 at 4:05 PM (10:05 AM Eastern in the US). She was 6 weeks early and was therefore a little small at 2.2 Kg (4.85 lbs) and 46 cm long (18 inches). Since she was pre-term, she will be hanging out in the Neonatal unit at the hospital for a little while as her lungs develop a bit more. Denise is recovering well and we are both happy and exhausted. Photos are regularly posted on our flickr account at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/deniseakob/.

We will try to post an update as soon as we can!

Love,

Pete and Denise
