It’s a Girl!

By | July 24, 2006

Special Edition – 07/24/2006

I’m proud to announce the arrival of our third child, Isabelle, a healthy 7 pound 15 ounce baby girl.

Mother and baby are both doing great.

Isabelle
In this picture she is less than an hour old.

It’s a tremendous blessing, and I hope you don’t mind me sharing my excitement with you.

In true fashion of the internet marketing opportunist that I am, I’ll be putting together a little sale to pay for this baby, which you can look forward to in the next couple days. In the mean time, I’ll be spending lots of time holding her and getting to know her 🙂

We’ll also revisit the HyperVRE topic in the next few days, or whenever Matt releases the update with the bug fixes.

As always, you can leave comments here in the blog.

Have a great day!

    Congratulations!

    I have two daughters of my own, ages 28 and 31. They can be your greatest joy and your greatest pain! But I would not be without my two. Ever!
    My youngest just got married in Malta to a Scotsman. Great joy!

    I wish you and your wife all the best, and all the joy and happiness that we have experienced with ours.

    Best regards, Chris Holloway.

    PS – My eldest daughter, Lisa, provides Nanny and Childcare Services if you ever need them if you visit the UK! (See website above).

    Congreetings to Eric & Melissa. Isabelle looks gorgeous. May God bless her and you all.

    In India, birth of a baby girl means Lakshmi (Goddess of Wealth) is born. A good omen. A wealthy era for Eric and his family. Your first sale will set the trend.

    Congratulations to you and your wife! No, I don’t mind your sharing the excitement. It’s wonderful to see God bring life and love in the midst all the death and destruction going on in this world. He’s always there to be seen, if only more sought Him.

    Bring Isabelle, and her siblings, up “in the way [they] should go, and [they are] old [they] will not turn from it. Proverbs 22:6.

    The earlier advice to enjoy them now while they are young is “spot on”. My children are 47 and 44 and 3 of my 5 grandchildren are in their 20’s.

    God bless you and especially Isabelle,
    Roy

    Hi Mom & Dad!

    A BIG congrats Eric! Your 3rd child…? You can’t be a day over like 20…
    okay so how does it go… having children keeps you young?

    You must be a superb diaper changer by now. How do you manage
    to get any sleep!?

    Congradulations Mrs Holmlund, since you did all the hard work and now Eric is basking in the limelight. Just don’t seem fair. Us fathers get all the glory like we actually did something. If you think about it Eric you have done something, you made your wife happy enough so she gave you two another child. Now if that ain’t hard work I don’t know what is. Good luck to the little one and to your family. God Bless you all.

    Congrats to both of you on the birth of Isabelle. It is such a beautiful name. I have six grandchildren and 4 of them are girls. Don’t get me wrong . . I love my grandsons very, very much . . but somehow girls are very special to me . . probably since after having my two sons . . I was finally blessed with my very own lovely daughter, who by the way has given me my two grandsons. Blessings to all of you.
