She's here! Mr. Burns is proud to announce the birth of his new baby sister...

My baby sister, Madeleine Lana Devlin Reithmeier, arrived at 8:03 AM on Saturday, March 29th (11 days overdue) at BC Women's Hospital in Vancouver, BC. She weighed in at almost 9 pounds 4 ounces, so it took quite a while for my mom to get her out. Luckily, she arrived healthy and quite content with her new surroundings. Here are a few photos of her first 48 hours....Thanks to Mom and Dad for taking the shots. The hospital has a policy about not allowing dogs to visit.

Just born... What a big baby girl!

Quick, Burnsy, make a break for it!! Looks like Dad is bringing the incredibly cute little package to the homestead--this can't be a good thing for a dog!

All kidding aside guys, great work and thank you so very much for allowing us to partake of the joyous process a little through these woinderful photos. Madeleine's very attractive parents have certainly bestowed a bounty of beauty upon her tiny little head! We can't wait to meet her!
Love,

Neil and Elizabeth

A huge congratulations to you, Mr. Burns, and to you too, Anna and Nick!
Anna, you are the embodiment of "grace under pressure". Thank you for letting me be a part of it all- it was an honour I will never forget.

Big hugs,
