Another van Zijl!

| | Comments (4)

I received two phone calls last night from my brother John. The first was to say that his wife Petro was in labour and then another one about 5 hours later to tell me that I was now the proud uncle of a little girl! I was extremely happy to hear the news so congratulations both of you! I'm sure you've got your hands full with the new baby and also keeping Luke happy so you won't read this for some time... anyway welcome to the family Carol Leia van Zijl.

Before Luke was born we all figured it had to be a boy because we couldn't imagine it being a girl - a smaller version of John "devil" would have to be a boy! But I bet Carol will be extremely cute, and I should probably think of her as a small version of Petro... instead of a small version of John in a dress ;)

CONGRATULATIONS :-) Lets hope she looks more like a small version of Petro, rather than John in a dress ;-)

Yup, she is about the cutest thing I've ever seen. And at the moment she looks like a baby wrapped in a blanket - but I have no doubt that within a few months, she will look like a lovely little baby girl - who looks a lot like Luke (but in a feminine way, of course;P )

All my best to the new baby!

Congratulations to Pieter and Carol too. You must have been the happiest grandpa and grandmom in the world! ^^
