IT'S A BOY!



On sunday 07-10-07 at 11:55 am, Iep [pronounced Eep] was born, a healthy boy. 54cm long and weighing 4320 grams (!!).




We're very proud and over the moon (and back) (and back again) and are now very much enjoying our beautifull sprout and our little family.


Much more about this beautifull boy later on.


(much less important, but like a cherry on the cake... another one of my 'designs' came into this world this weekend. See Knitty and check out the extra pattern!! I'm a proud mother as well as a proud designer and guess what... tomorrow's my birthday too!! Could it get any better?)

Many many congratulations to you and Ieps dad! Iep is such a beautiful little boy. My heart melts just by looking at his picture. :)

I hope you are all feeling fine. Take extra care of yourself (and your boobs!) these first few days. I know I felt more than a little wonky when the milk production kicked in. Warm showers are highly recommended.

And Happy happy birthday sweet mama Saskia!

PS. The Knitty hat is so cool!

I popped over here from the Knitty site to tell you how much I love the pattern. My son is a snowboarder and is going to get such a kick out of this hat.
Oh, gosh! and Happy Birthday also. Hope it was wonderful!

Ooooooooh, was die van JOU! Ik had hem van de week al gezien en aan mijn middelste geshowd, het leek hem wel wat, zo'n heftige muts.
TOF ZEG!
Gefeliciteerd met de geboorte van je zoon Iep. Lekker gewichtje, al was mijn jongste nog een pondje zwaarder!
Lekker genieten en veel plezier.

He's gorgeous! My son was born four days before my birthday (two years ago) and he also weighed nine pounds - way to go! (Linked to you from Knitty)

All the best to the little family and one more reason to create great patterns!

Unknown said...

Congratulations, he is adorable. I had to tell you I love the design on Knitty. I am going to be knitting the hat and baby clothes. My sister is going to be a first time mom, yeah! Must knit baby cloths.

Congratulations! What a beautiful baby! I'm sure you're both over the moon.

Love the Knitty pattern and am already plotting to knit it for myself (I never knit for myself) in time for ski season in California.

Hope you're getting some sleep!
