A New Addition

Hello Ladies, 

I would just like to share with you the new addition to our family. He is the first baby from any of our children and the first grandchild for both sides of the family. 
You can imagine the excitement this little fellow has caused.

He was born at 9.31am, Saturday 24th August, weighing in at 7lb 14oz.
This picture was taken a couple of hours after he was born.





His poor Mummy had rather a rough pregnancy. Where most girls bloom, she suffered constantly from sickness, horrific swelling of hands a feet and all in all it was not much of a fun pregnancy. So it came as no surprise really when we learned that the delivery was a long and difficult one.
But she said it he was worth everything that they had gone through and they are very proud parents.

We went to see him Saturday afternoon and I couldn't stop crying.
I know there are many proud grandparents out there, so you know how emotional it is to see your new born grandchild. 




It still seems slightly unreal that this 6ft 4" son of mine, with his wife has produced a child of there own. I look back and it doesn't seem that long ago that were babies themselves.

This picture was taken on Sunday at the hospital, he was just getting  ready for his first 
photo shoot.




I am so looking forward to being a part of this little fellows life.

    1. Thank you Meredith, yes I did have a good cry. I didn't think i would, but when we turned up at the hospital for our first visit, there was my son standing over this tiny baby, getting flustered as he was trying to change the nappy. It was a moment I will never forget. I am so proud of them both.
      Hugs

    1. Thank you so much for your lovely comments. Yes the sleepless nights are a new thing for them, but they're dealing really well with .
      I told Abby to sleep through the day, when baby sleeps. It'll help some .
