Hello World, from Gil!

Last week another major milestone in my life happened: our son was born!

This time it was much less stressful than with Olivia’s but still, the feeling of hearing your newborn cry for the first time, even before you can see them, it’s just too amazing to describe.

With 4150 g and 53 cm, Gil (pronounced with a soft G) classifies as a big baby and, like his sister, he’s quite peaceful and has very beautiful black hair.

We feel extremely lucky and thankful for our children, and I am very curious to see how the experience of being a parent of two kids will be. But for now I am taking some time off, helping Helena recover, and enjoying the first days of our family of 4.
