Great News

Steph's little girl was born at 4.20 this morning weighing in a 7lbs 7.25.  No name as yet.  Steph is absolutely shattered.  I've only spoken to her for a couple of minutes as I told her to try and get some sleep.  I'll let everyone know the name when I find out.

 That's wonderful news Chris...

                                                            to the whole family

Ooooh lovely!  Congratulations to the proud parents! 

Don't forget the piccies!

how late was she? 

will they stay in hospital? , they like them to go home if they are both ok

[bitsnknots]

She was 10 days late but I think that they're only keeping them in for a few hours.  As Steph was obviously shattered, I'll leave it a while longer before I ring her.  We'll probably go to see them in a few days and I'll be going armed with the camera and will post piccies as soon as I can.

They reckon going armed with a casserole too is a good idea, but then again, lots of men can and do do the cooking anyway.   When mine were born, if I wasn't well enough to cook, we only had a sandwich! 

[bitsnknots]

Must admit, Steph's hubby Graham does nearly all the cooking.

Lovely news Chris. Look forward to seeing the photos.

That's great - just the job, a lovely thing to happen - congratulations to all!  Pictures please! xxx

We'll probably go to see the new arrival in a couple of days and I'll be taking quite a few piccies so I'll put them on then.

nice to hear some good news...  looking forward to the pics..  I think 3/4 day old baby pics are much nicer.. baby always looks calmer and not so squashed!

[bitsnknots]

I agree Chez.  I think that they look far better.

Congratulations Books and well done Steph on the arrival of your new baby girl 

[chickengrandma-2008]

No stan, it's not books that's had a baby!!! 

[bitsnknots]

Well I am the grand Godmother aren't I?

[myraandjim]

wonderful news look forward to pics.

I've just rung Steph's.  They've still not decided on a name yet.  Grace loves her little sister and she's very caring with her.  Steph's dad had just arrived to see his second granddaughter.  Steph is going to ring me later and we'll have a good natter then. 

[bitsnknots]

We should be seeing our new arrival on Thursday so I'll post photos then.

We've just got back from visiting the baby who is now called Georgia Mae.
