New Life

We welcomed our son, Aronin Lyngdoh REYE, on the 19th of July, 2010 at 5:20am. He weighed 3.34kg and was 52cm long.

Words can't describe how blessed we feel.

Day 4 - Going in for another massage

Spoilt in June

June was a wonderful month for catching up with family and friends. Bec turned 30 and had a long weekend of celebrations. Then the following weekend a baby shower was thrown for us. Bec, Rich and our baby were given so many presents, and even more importantly, feel so supported and loved.
