Boy oh boy, Hanna is adjusting well. She is incredibly content--a dream to care for. We went into the office to say hi--her first trip to the bright lights and big city. She did well, but was happy to return home too.
Thanks for all the well-wishes. We feel truly blessed to have such supportive friends and family (and the shock value for some of you was well worth it!)
P.S. Click on the photo to see a close-up. She's a complete princess.

Now I know why you wanted to set up a blog.
I'm so happy for you.
I wish I had known you were in the office yesterday.
Congratulations! She's beautiful!

Wow -- next time please come to the depths of the 27th floor to show her off.
Congratulations to you both. Hanna is a very blessed girl to have you in her life as well.

Paula and Brad,
Congratulations on the arrival of Hanna. We were at the lake when Darren phoned to tell us the good news. Hopefully we will see you soon. All the best!
Love,
Adriana and Family

Wow! A big outing already for the little one - you're so brave. Obviously, you're embracing this and handling it like a champ. When Kalie was born I was so nervous I didn't leave the house for a month. I'm so happy for you.
When do us "non" or "ex" Nexen employees get to see that little beauty (wink, wink)?
