Nathaniel Jem, born at 3.59 am on 23 December 2006, weighing 4 kg or 8 lbs 13 oz:
The following day, Christmas eve, after his first bath:
We’re home now; Nate is good-natured and hungry; he is even cuter when awake. His father is besotted. I am very sore and very happy.
Thank you everyone, so much for your love and good wishes. What a very lucky baby he is to have so many friends.

I hope you had a merry Christmas.
All our love,

What a gorgeous baby! Enjoy your snuggle time.

He’s fantastic! And BIG! That must be what he was doing while he was waiting, growing. Big babies are easier on the Dad’s though, they don’t look as breakable. Don’t try to do too much too soon, and you’ll be back to yourself in no time…except for the foggy brain thing.
Lis says:
He’s such a gorgeous baby, guaranteed heartbreaker in a few years that one
Congratulations!!
