Congratulations and welcome to little Anya! I love the pictures of you holding her … the joy in your face is incredible.
:):D:):D:):D:):D:):D:):D:)

Congrats!! What a happy looking family. I’m so happy for you all!

She’s a cutie.

Cutest baby ever! Thanks for the pictures and for sharing your good news. You’ve spread a lot of joy. Congratulations!

Ok, the pictures did it. Getting teary here. So very, very happy for all of you. You’ve endured so much to get to this place. I can only imagine the joy in your hearts holding that beautiful little healthy baby. I’m sure her big brother is smiling, too.

I think it was ScareyFaerie with a guess of 9:00 am GMT, which is 6:00 pm Japan time. 34 minutes off! W00t! ::flings confetti::

ETA: PICS!!!

She’s a beauty! Congratulations to the Mom and Dad on a job well done!

:cool:

Pics! Oh man, I love the one with TokyoPlayer holding Anya with this incredulous expression of joy…

Work was bizarre and intense this morning, and it’s lunchtime and I come back to the Dope to find PICS!

Oh, she is so beautiful! I especially like the picture of all of you together – grandmas, parents, and baby.

And your wife is gorgeous.

Congratulations again, my friend. Someday you will be able to tell Anya that people all over the world cried tears of joy at her birth.

Happy birth day, Anya! Take it easy on your mom and dad for a little while, will you? They’ve been so worried, let them have a break. For a few hours at least :slight_smile:

Yay! She’s absolutely precious! I’m not even upset that I lost the baby pool! Congratulations.

Welcome, Anya! You have to the the most eagerly awaited baby in the history of the world.

TokyoPlayer, your wife is so beautiful. And so patient. After my two c-sections, I would have had a few suggestions about what to do with the camera. And none of them would be pretty. :smiley:

You look like the happiest person on the face of the Earth. I think, right now, you could fly. Congratulations to all of you!

That is one mighty happy-looking papa, and with good reason. She’s a beaut!

Welcome to the world, little Anya! It’s a little messy, but we’re doing what we can…you’ll learn to love the place. :slight_smile:

Now I’m all weepy, and I have to go to work. Darn you ! :smiley:

She’s beautiful. You’re all beautiful. There aren’t words for how happy I am for you!

That smile on Daddy’s face pretty much says it all. And I think it has spread all over the world by now.

That’s one beautiful family, that is.

YAYYYY! Oh, she’s so beautiful. I’m getting all misty. Congratulations of the highest order!

That’s awesome news. :slight_smile:

Congratulations TokyoFamily!! So glad to hear that all is well.

Beauiful pics; you’d all be gorgeous under normal circumstances, but considering recent events, you all look incredible!

Cute baby!!

Happy family!!

Yeah!!

What a beautiful family! Congratulations, and Welcome Anya!
