Welcome Maya Elena!

Born: Thursday July 7 2005 at 6:48pm

Weight- 3490g or 7lb10oz
Length- 47cm

After 16 hours of labour (including a very fast 18 minute 2nd stage) we finally met our beautiful daughter Maya Elena.
Maya is a beautiful girl, with her mummy's nose, mouth and chin and daddy's dark hair (but not curly) and big eyes. After a couple of rough nights (for mum!) she is starting to settle into a good routine, feeding and sleeping well. She is very very cuddly, and has Mum, Dad and Grandma all wrapped around her little finger.

Below we have posted photos taken shortly after Maya was born. Follow the links on the right for more photos from her first few days in the world.
