Magnolia Down Under Challenge #155 {Inspirational Photo PLUS Surprise Baby Shower} - BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT plus Winner and Top 5


WOW - we couldn't have planned our Surprise baby shower any better - Louise delivered a healthy baby girl on july 17th at 18:28. She weighed in at 3870 g and was 52 cm long Her name is Ella Sigrid Josefin. Everything went really well and mother and baby are now home getting to know each other from the outside. Of course the announcement caused much excitement among us here at MDUC and Louise was happily facebooking away within a couple of hours of the delivery - she's an amazing woman - LOL. Check out this gorgeous photo of Ella taken a mere 2 hours after she entered the world - all together now - aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw!
