Here are a few photos of the baby very soon after the birth. He was 3.4kg (probably still is) and had all the requisite fingers and toes.
It has been noted that in the changing nappies competition that the father is leading at this point but it is likely the mother will hit her straps pretty soon...
The little bloke has a fair set of lungs on him and where it looked like the hair could be red initially, most are seeing more of a light brown shade.
Mum had 3 hours sleep last night yet still manged a smile this morning.

Thank you all for all of the best wishes. I have counted 123 texts so far. My phone lit up like a Christmas tree yesterday with the news. It was an experience that I will not soon forget BUT I did see things that I am in no hurry to see again...

I will try and organise a rendezvous for the little bloke at a session for all of you that want to see him. Will depend heavily on the boss and her thoughts on the matter.

Thanks again

Gus and Melissa
