WELCOME TO THE WORLD!!!

And what a day it was!

Can you imagine, my little boy...

You're entire day of birth was being filmed for a television show "A Baby Story." WE HAD SO MUCH FUN.

The best part for me, your Nana, is that I was in the delivery room. I saw you from the second that you were born. And even though you didn't have a name going in, as soon as your Mom saw you she said "Hello Oliver".

Your Dad and I were partners in supporting your Mom and being there for you.

The next day was even better. Since everyone was at home watching Jake, I got to know you more and more.

Will your delicate features mean that you will have a more delicate heart?

Will the fact that I have been with you since the moment of birth tie us together in a very special way?

Will the fact that I am no longer afraid of new babies make me bolder in the way that I can take care of you?

I know that you are moving to Australia for 10 months...but I will eagerly be awaiting your return, along with my beloved Jake and Rebecca and Eric, with months of love built up inside me.

And we will get to know each other more and more the 2 times that I visit you in Sydney.

NOW JAKE IS MY BIG BOY AND YOU ARE MY BABY BOY!!!
WELCOME TO THE WORLD!!!
