    Talking New Arrival - Beating the spring rush

    Delighted to announce - as of 12th February 2011 at 4.23am - the birth of our latest, Tyler Mercer.

    Born after just two hours of labour, and less than ten minutes of pushing, Tyler arrived at a grand weight of 8lbs (just shy tbh, but who's counting?).

    Both baby and mother are back at home being doted on by the rest of the family.

    Hope you like the pics.





    Cheers,

    Ian

    Congratulations!!! And they are the most beautiful newborn baby photos I've ever seen! Lovely... you must be very proud (of your new arrival as well as the photos!)


    I've had a lot of sobering thoughts in my time.... It was them that started me drinking.

    Re: New Arrival - Beating the spring rush

    Thanks to everyone for the kind comments..Geek award goes to Iron Sites, who I now challenge to do better (although I should point out that given this one is my fourth, it's more of a multi bonus than an achievement unlocked)...

    Finally settled on a name for baby...who shall henceforth be known as Tyler.

    I would have been back in sooner, but I've mostly been sleeping - making the most of my paternity leave.

    Thanks to Sair & Zak especially. Sair, I'm slightly more proud of the child than the photos. Slightly.
    Zak, you big sap.

    I've got a tonne more photos - won't bore you with them, but I'll probably put a few up in the photo section if anyone is interested.

    ^ Well, in the pic he was very cute, but that is a little weird if you personally don't know the babi.
