THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SIGHT IN THE WORLD*


S.acha M.atias was born on Saturday, March 29 at 6.33pm weighing 7lb 7oz and measuring 20inches. He is named after The C's maternal granfather Silverio and my maternal grandfather Melvin. It is our honour to honour their memories.

As you can see, he's perfect. We are thrilled, but we are facing some challenges.

My birthing story isn't the one I had thought I would have, but it is mine nonetheless, and I am proud of myself, my husband and our little guy. And I will forever worship the ground my doula** and her tireless student walk on.

I have started on the birth story, but wanted to let you all know the great news as soon as I could. Thanks for all the wishes so far-they sure are making today alot easier.

* Except for Serenity, Oro, Dawn, Kate, Artblog and Somewhat Ordinary's (pwp) guys. (OMG we all had boys, I just realized!!) Congrats to all you fine women.

** Here she is, written up in the newspaper!

He is beautiful. Simply beautiful. When hubby and I were in MTL on Sunday/Monday, I said to him, "Gee, I wonder if it's possible that one of my blogging friends is in this very hospital right now, having her baby?" I was thinking about you. And I'm glad to see that all is good. Congratulations to you and your husband on the birth of your baby boy!
