NAPA — A couple evacuated from last week’s tragic Wine Country wildfires welcomed a baby girl at a North Bay hotel this week, according to reports.
The girl, who was named Elisabeth, weighed 7 pounds 4 ounces and measured 19 inches long and arrived at 7:11 a.m. Tuesday at the Westin Verasa Napa.
She was born to Neil Bason and PJ Fairbairn, who had planned on a home birth but followed orders last week to evacuate from their St. Helena home.
“Miss Elisabeth Bason arrived this morning — we’re delighted and love to all,” Neil Bason wrote in a Facebook post.
After checking into the Westin, which was not affected by the fires and remained open to guests, the Basons were considering their options when PG went into labor and managed to contact their midwife, who arrived in time to deliver Elisabeth.
