Our second baby girl was born earlier this week, on Sunday 12th December 2010 at 5.07pm weighing 2.92Kg.

We named her Gemma Mary Ioanna.

God has been amazing to us with this birth, especially through the intercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe. My husband has written the story behind the birth of Gemma in detail, here is the link on airmaria.com for you to read, together with a photo of the baby for anyone interested:

Or you can read it here with more photos of the baby:

I am in tears. God is so very good, and He blessed us with the holy example of Our Lady to inspire and intercede for us all.

Congratulations!!!
