Well, our family seems to be multiplying nicely!
On Sunday 8 August 2010, Leoni Grace Witchalls was born at 5.25pm after a lot of pushing (without gas and air, by the way) and came out weighing 8lb 5oz.
We decided to name her Leoni (pronouned Lee-oh-nee) about 4 hours before she was born, while Kirsten was in the delivery suite. Her name means 'God is a Lion' and is also a female variation of Leonard, in honour of my Dad who died mid-July this year.
Leoni is settling in nicely at home, Joshua is loving being a big brother, and we are sleep training her at the moment, which is sometimes tough but generally going well.
By the way, as I write this, the midwife has just visited us to weigh Leoni, and at 10 days old she has put on 11oz and now weighs 9lb!
