I’m going to make this short because it’s now 11:43 PM SA time and as you remember we’ve been up and at it since 4am.
By now, I’m sure all of you have heard that Koula & Dimitri had a little baby girl. Anastasia Danae Philippou came into this world @ 5:27 pm weighing in at 3.12 kilos. (312 coincidence there? I think not. This baby has Chicago in it from birth!) That’s 6.9 pounds. Baby Anastasia is 48 cm long, that’s 18.9 inches. And she’s so beautiful with a head of black hair and big blue almond shaped eyes. I cannot explain how exciting the entire process was and how much of a blessing it was to experience it with Koula & Dimitri. Anastasia is a blessing to us all. She’s extended our family generation to 5! Which is incredible and so exciting.
I’m beyond myself right now. I’ve attached a photo for you all to see baby and mom and dad. But Maria should have sent you guys photos that I’ve sent to her and asked to pass along. Hope you’re all doing well. Mom, Dad, Baby, Grandma, and Uncle here are all doing well, we’re just all a bit tired. So with that, thanks for reading my emails. I hope they’ve been a day brightener for you all and you’ll surely receive more emails/photos from us soon.
with love,
Uncle Biko
