The newest addition to our family was born yesterday morning, December 21, at 3:59 am after 1.5 hours of labour. He was 4.18 kg, 60 cm long and had a head circumference of 35.5 cm.  Nathan seemed to take it all in his stride, though I think he might have been a bit scared by the noises I was making during the actual birth but Andrew was with him all the time, explaining what was going on.  He helped to clamp and cut the cord, wanted to breastfeed with the baby, has lavished him in kisses, and several times asked to hold the baby.  🙂

Welcome little man.  Your Daddy and I promise to give you a name soon.
