Jack Ferreira Kerschbaumer
Arriving to much joy and little sleep, our son Jack was born at 18:45 on 09/09/09, weighing 3.33kg.
He'd been so good to his mom, not giving her any problems during the pregnancy, we should have known he was fond of his temporary home. It took much persuasion from many helpers and remarkable effort from mom to convince Jack that this world is worth joining. After 26 hours of negotiations a deal was struck and we're all ecstatic with the results.
Mom and Jack stayed in the hospital for a couple of days to recover, whilst dad made some last minute preparations and got to know St Georges Hospital rather well.
Since getting home, we've slowly settled into being parents (or subjects?). Jack seems to take particular pleasure in peeing on dad at least once a day...perhaps it is a teaching aid for those who don't catch on as quick as they should.
We're taking as many photos as we can, so do check back to see how Jack is growing.

What a gorgeous baby!!! Congrats, Elsa and Charl, well done. Elsa, you must be made of steel as well as velvet - your beautiful smile shortly after all those agonising hours bears witness to my statement. God bless you and Charel and Jack Ferreira Kerschbaumer.
