It’s a Boy!
I’m excited to announce that at 2am this morning V gave birth to our second son - Henri.
He’s 7 pounds 14 ounces (3.59kg) and so far is a very content little guy. Here are a couple of pictures from this morning and last night.
Both mother and baby are doing well after a long day - and dad’s not doing too badly either!
I’m Taking Some Paternity Leave
I will be taking a couple of weeks off now however I’ve pre-prepared two great weeks of content here at ProBlogger for you. It will include a guest post each day from some great bloggers, a series of 10 posts from me on ‘how to let your blog go’ and a few other random posts from me that I’ve written earlier.
Lara will also be moderating comments and will make posts if any breaking news happens that she thinks is relevant to you.
PS: Thanks to everyone for your well wishes. I hadn’t realized that today in many parts of the world it’s Father’s Day! Here in Australia we celebrate it in September - but I’m more than happy to claim it as being Father’s Day here today too (although I think V’s much more deserving of a special day of recognition after 20 hours of labor)! Thanks again all!

Congratulations on the new addition to the family :)
If he was content, must not have needed changed and wasn’t hungry. lol.
I’ve been there. When my kids needed changed or were hungry they all of a sudden found they had a set of lungs. Otherwise they were good baby’s. Have a nice Father’s Day and Hope you enjoy your Paternity Leave.

Congratulations, V and Darren!! He is so beautiful! Way to go, V - on your long labor - one of my three was a long one and Man! That right there is a WORK-OUT!!!! Great job, mama!!! I’m so happy to hear that you are able to take two weeks paternity leave, what a neat deal that is - is that because of your online work - or just because of Australia’s very cool view of parenthood? (I’ve heard a little about it…)

Congratulations Darren! It’s funny, I had a niece born on Monday and have yet to see a pic. I said to my husband, “I’ve seen the Problogger guy’s baby before your brother’s!” And you’re on the other side of the planet!
I guess that’s one of the cool things about an online community like yours. You can develop relationships with people from all over the world…without ever meeting them.
Thanks for sharing your announcement with us. Enjoy your new little one!
