Steinbach’s New Year’s Baby arrived at Bethesda Regional Health Centre at 2:07 p.m., Jan. 1.

Isla Belle Giesbrecht arrived just on time and two weeks early — her due date was Jan. 13.

“How things were going, she had to come early,” said proud mom Lucie Giesbrecht.

“She was ready to meet the world early,” added beaming dad Brendan Giesbrecht.

Isla came into the world a healthy seven pounds, nine ounces and measured 19 inches long.

It will not be too long before she will be helping her parents on the farm in La Broquerie. While Isla is her parents’ firstborn, Lucie said eventually there will likely be more farmhands to come.

Lucie and Brendan said the experience was made better thanks to the very kind doctors and nurses at Bethesda Regional health Centre who helped deliver Isla and take care of mom.
