congrats!

 

[Paul-Antwerp]

Thank you all for the good wishes. We truly appreciate your friendship.

Just some basic info: Fabian''s weight is 19,525 Cts with a measurement of 530 mm. Cut-grade Ideal of course.

Son, mother and especially father are doing fine.

As for your requests for pics, I beg you to hold on for some more time, as we are still discussing possible exclusive photo-rights with various magazines

.

Seriously, I apparently need some time to get re-organized, but as soon as I find the time, I will surely bring you pics of our beautiful gem. (In case you read this, Andrey, please do not consider this as self-promotion).

And as always,

Live long,

Google says 19525 carat = 137.744821 ounces which is 8.60905131 pounds
530 millimeters = 20.8661417 inches
for those that don''t think in diamondese.
Cant wait for pictures of the little gem.
Congrates!!!

Congratulations, Paul! I was hoping that someone was going to tell us your wife's name so that we could congratulate her a little more personally! I do send her my congratulations as well. I am sure that you and she will give Fabian a wonderful, loving home.

We will try to be patient about the pictures. Taking care of new babies is very time consuming!

All the best to you!


Hugs,
Deborah and family,

The mother''s name is Griet (which is the Dutch version of Gretl (of Hanzl and Gretl)).

Griet is pronounced starting with a very soft K and then something close to the word ''read''.

I just received in the mail - the most intriguing grading report that I have ever seen.
I could not publish a scan of it here because it has some personal details, but I hope someone will edit it and post it.

BTW they made a critical mistake in this grading document - they left out Lifetime Diamond consumption.

Definitely worth posting. Cheers to papa, mama and indeomedia for the creativity. Cheers to Fabian on nearly 20,000 carats!

When we opened our birth-card, errr, grading report this is what we saw...

 

[John P]

Already LOL about the Fabian-Griet-Paul logo, we were quite impressed with the inside!

 

[John P]

(beneath the graphic) "The numbers given above are compared to what an average baby will consume during his/her whole lifetime."

 

[Dee*Jay]

ADORABLE! You guys are TOO clever!

 

[John P]

...And the interesting data at the bottom.

Great idea with the BQD Paul and Griet. Refreshing, sophisticated humor...and congratulations again on your FGP Ideal.

 

[Miranda]

Congratulations on the new baby!

What a darling ''grading report''!

 

[AGBF]

It is very clever, indeed, but is no substitute for a picture of the real Fabian! Actually, I would like to see a photo of Fabian with Griet and Paul!

Deborah

Clever, but I agree w/Deb, I want to see the real photos! hehe Many congrats!!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

That is the perfect announcement!!! Congratulations on your new baby boy!

 

[Paul-Antwerp]

Apparently some people are requesting pics of me. Since News of the World did not have sufficient funds for an exclusive, PS gets the premiere.

So, here I am:

Sincerely,

Fabian

 

[Paul-Antwerp]

Some people say that I can look cute too.

Sincerely,

Fabian

 

[Paul-Antwerp]

And like my dad, I do not like to have too many pics taken.

Sincerely,

Fabian

 

[Beth]

Oh, he is perfect! What a beautiful baby.

 

[Ellen]

Awww. He is adorable, even in the rough.

Congratulations Paul, and enjoy your little gem!

 

[Lorelei]

He is a gorgeous little boy, many congrats Paul and thanks so much for the pics!

ETA - I love his little outfits, the cute buttoned jacket and the denim-ish ensemble!
