Rosalie has a younger cousin :-)

We woke this morning to read a long-awaited text message from Davnet and Paul that their daughter Alannah Roisin Conneely was born on 1st September at 22:00. Although it seems to have been a rather dramatic entrance, mother and daughter (and presumably father) are reported to be well.

Those who know Paul will understand when I say he is a man of considerable stature. Therefore it is perhaps no surprise that Alannah weighs in at a respectable 10 pounds and 5 ounces, or 4.67767132 kilograms for those of us with trouble understanding imperialistic measures. Funnily enough, this is only marginally less than Rosalie's weight last week aged 6 weeks :-)

Congratulations to the Davnet and Paul, I hope to see some pictures of my new niece soon.
