This is the first ever picture of Victoria Brooks. She's about 4 minutes old here. They rushed her through to be weighed and checked out. Then back in to a very exhausted mum. Victoria was a VERY lucky girl. The umbillical cord was wrapped around her neck not once, but twice. The birth took a long time partly because they couldn't speed her birth along because Irena had had a c-section with Sasha 15 months prior. We had thought Irena would have a c-section again, but the doctors decided a natural birth was best. In hindsight, a c-section may have been better.

...isn't easy. I'm hovering at 200lbs still. I'm eating far less meat than ever before. I need to get out and exercise more. There isn't a decent gym nearby, and the weather is getting rather chilly. Once Irena has Victoria, it will be great for us to be able to exercise together more. Swimming, badminton, hiking. For now, my commitment is to cut down on sugars and carbs, and drink more green tea and get more exercise.

Here's the view from our window, showing the first snowfall of the season. It was just cold enough for snow, but not cold enough to settle at all.
