Molly Joyce Fraser Moore

Molly Joyce Fraser Moore was born on 1 March 2010 at Auckland Hospital. Our thanks again to Lynda Batcheler (as well as the rest of the team from AOC) and the midwives from Auckland Hospital for their wonderful service. Molly weighed 4 kilos at birth and was born a few days overdue, quite a different story from her big brother who was 4 weeks early and not very well. She is feeding well and sleeping very well - so far anyway!

Andrea had a night in Hospital and a couple of nights in Birthcare so came home well rested and ready to face a household of two under two!





We've had a week and a bit at home now, though with a lot of help from Granny who has been staying with us. She goes this weekend and it is fair to say we are a little scared of being left on our own! Luckily we have Grandad Wilson in Auckland who has been a huge help in these busy first days with looking after Charlie and taking him to the park which he loves.

Charlie has taken very well to having a little sister. He is very good at giving her kisses and gentle pats.

We would like to thank all our family - in particular Auntie Suzie and Lucy for helping look after Charlie so well when Andrea went into labour, Auntie Charlotte and Uncle Andy for spending Friday nights at our place to watch the rugby and making us feel like we do have a social life still. Auntie Karen and Wade for taking Charlie to the zoo when Andrea and Molly were still in Birthcare and for the banana bread! Uncle Doug and Aunt Elaine for the beautiful roses and Pooh Bear.

To all who have sent cards, prezzies and food thanks so much. We will get around to sending out proper thanks once we have found our equilibrium.

Andrea, Sam, Charles and Molly
