Introducing Anabella Grace Murdoch

It is with much joy and happiness that we introduce our second gorgeous daughter, Anabella Grace. Bella arrived at 8.50am on Wednesday 12 March at Burnside Hospital. Bella weighed 2.8kg, a bit smaller than her sister Charlotte and lost almost 10% during her hospital stay. Unfortunately this meant mum and dad and big sister missed out on a luxury weekend at the Hyatt, vetoed by the Paediatrican but that was fine as it was too hot to move anyway. We are pleased that at last count Bella weighed in at a healthy 3.3kg and judging by the way she loves her food we are expecting another decent weight gain this week.

Charlotte is enthralled by her little sister and doesn't want to leave her alone, we think she is a bit impatient and wants Bella to play with her now. Otherwise she has been a wonderful big sister and even helps pat Bella's back at burp time.

The Murdoch household feels very complete now and very busy with not much sleep happening at night. We are estatic with our little brood and look forward to giving you regular updates as our darling little princesses continue to grow.
