Pisces / Year of the Tiger

We are well & adjusting into our new life. I had a super short (intense) natural birthing under 4 hours! Our baby was almost born on the way to the hospital! We are in bliss, he is an amazing boy!

With love to all of you for all your support & good wishes!

April, Eric & Ando
