Drum roll please….
Introducing Coco Rose Carter, born 8.43am Friday 19th December 2008, weighing 3.000kg.
Both Coco and Monique are doing really well.
I’ll spare you the photos of the actual birth… (yes – I did!).

Happy mum.

Well the poor thing does have a photographer for a dad!

Congratulations Simon and Monique. Many years of joy are ahead I am sure. I have 4 children now and most of them are stronger than me on the woody already… watch out!

Dear Monique and Simon,
Congratulations to the two of you on the birth of Coco Rose. I recently got to know from my mother but of course she didn’t know your e-mail address. Now it seems that I’ve found it. Hope this is the correct one.
Regards from Klosterneuburg
