Stefan and Anya are proud to announce the arrival of baby Octavia!
It hasn't been plain sailing as just three months into married life Anya takes a pregnancy test that comes back positive - it was a bit of a shock to the system as the young couple didn't have a huge amount of income or space but nevertheless they were excited. Stefan started putting in extra shifts at the police academy to save up money and Anya dabbles in journalism and blogging.
Several weeks before due, baby makes an appearance! Stefan and Anya had chosen to not find out the gender and are delighted when the midwife hands the wriggling newborn to Anya with the confirmation - it's a girl! They are almost settled on her name before she is born and meeting her confirms this; Octavia Mary Sapphire has very dark hair like her mummy and gorgeous green-blue eyes. Octavia is a name of Anya's choosing while Mary is of important significance to both of them and Sapphire is a gem name from the baby's late September birthday.
The first few days home from the hospital have been tiring, amazing and chaotic! Stefan's had time off work to be there for Anya and Octavia, and family have rallied round to provide support when and where needed. Octavia is generally a good baby though she can be grumpy sometimes - especially when left alone - she's very curious and loves to look at people's faces and pull hair! Where Anya had been doing most of the cooking before, she now finds herself too tired so Stefan batch cooks on the weekend and Anya does some heating and washing when she can. Sisters Ellie and Iona have been indispensable, bringing around casseroles and babysitting while Anya catches some zzzs. As Octavia settled into a routine and Anya gets used to motherhood she finds the time to continue her writing, continuing to earn money from home by auctioning her scripts and working on novel transcripts.
