My lovely wife just days before Noelle's arrival!

What a cute kiss!

Here she is! Noelle Anastasia Seybold

Noelle joined us on Friday morning at 12:49. She weighed just a tad over 7lbs. and was just over 17 inches long. She probably won't be an NBA center.

Look at all those cute girls! Fiona was so excited to finally be a big sister!

Believe it or not the birth made papa tired also.

Our dear friend Wijaja Sutojo stopped by for a short visit on Saturday. He made sure our freinds in Peine got to see some pictures of Noelle.

Extreme sport baby wear. Look, no hands!

This has to be one of our all-time favorite pictures. What a good big sister you are Fiona.

Johannes enjoyed his visit at Hotel Seybold

Emil Nilsson, probably the last guest of Hotel Seybold that gets to stay in "the guest room", also came to visit. He and Brett got to talk about his next step in his walk with Christ, his baptism will be in February.
