Felix Jonathan Hildebrandt
Born 11pm, 13 February 2011.
3.9 kilos, 54 cm.
Felix for happiness, Jonathan for my brother, Hildebrandt for my beloved.
The birth went well. Will tell more later, because, um, sleep has become a bit more of a priority than it used to be. And yes, we have about a thousand photographs already, so there might be a few more of them too.
We arrived home from hospital today. We are happy indeed. About this happy:
