Baby Amber

Baby Amber, my very first niece, came into this world weighing 2.8 kg after nine hours of labour (and for once, via normal delivery -- no C-section!) on Friday evening! :)



For reasons unbeknownst to us, the girls in my family have always been the overachievers, consistently outdoing most of the boys. Amber doesn't know it yet, but she now leads the pack in her generation, to keep up with this proud tradition. ;) As a first step, she's already outdone both Ben and Dean in terms of volume; she's been screaming much louder and clearer than either of them did as newborns -- this girl has got some powerful pipes!
