Another new Downer - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Macalaure · 12-16-2008, 10:10 AM

Yesterday, at 2:07 pm, Rikae gave birth to our lovely daughter Annika. She weighed 10 pounds 12 ounces and she and her mother are fine. More infos and probably pictures will follow soon!

Nerwen · 12-16-2008, 11:05 AM

Hey, congratulations!

Raefindel · 12-16-2008, 11:07 AM

Congratulations!

WOW! that's a HUGE baby! Shoulda called her OUCH!

Thinlómien · 12-16-2008, 11:08 AM

I guess I can aww and congratulate here too even though I already did it on Livejournal?

So awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww once again and lots of congrats to you darlings. I'm so happy for you.

Mithalwen · 12-16-2008, 11:31 AM

Since I checked this before LJ

Sorry my gender prediction function was on the blink but I hope Rikae will forgive me.... girls are great

But yes that is definitely in the Ouch category... is it my imagination or is there a tendency for Downers to produce bonny babies?

I seem to remember HI's lad being a good size as well as Lal and Dave's.

Aganzir · 12-16-2008, 12:09 PM

Congratulations to you all!

Durelin · 12-16-2008, 12:10 PM

That's wonderful! Congratulations!!

Nogrod · 12-16-2008, 12:19 PM

Oh My!!!

That is just incredibly great... and sweet!

Your lives just changed for the rest of it guys, for better, no: for the best!!! Trust me, I know what I'm saying!

Just wait and see; and before you notice it she will be eighteen and having a BD-romance!

Congrats and a bunch of virtual flowers to all the three of you! Enjoy your new life that will never ever going to be the same it was before!

Eönwë · 12-18-2008, 02:02 PM

Congratulations!

Another new Downer indeed!

Lalaith · 12-18-2008, 02:12 PM

A girl-child, born on the 15th of December...you could not ask for better, I promise you...ahem....*modest cough*...I am most honoured to share her birth-date...

Seriously though. That's fantastic news. Well done to all concerned and have a lovely and as-restful-as-possible Christmas.

Ooh, now I just realised she's born on my deathday... wonderful.

(Btw, belated congrats for the birthday, Lalaith.

)

Did anyone say 'pictures'?

Thanks to everyone for the congratulations.

The version of Anna is the right one (although I thought it was a Slavic one).

Sounds nice. Thanks for the effort.

Belated congrats to you. Another Downer birthday revealed to the public.

I'm sure she feels honoured, too.

satansaloser2005 · 12-19-2008, 01:39 PM

Oooo, and pictures now too! *goes to look*

Belated congratulations to you both, or rather the three of you. Best wishes, and I hope you enjoy what I'm sure will be a very eventful Christmas! How long until she starts playing Werewolf?
