New Arrival - Cost will be £250k apparently
SeaBass - 1/6/10 at 06:57 PM

Feet have just landed after my wife gave birth to our first last Tuesday. Alisdair weighed in at 8lb 11oz which was a struggle for my size 8 SWMBO. Needless to say we are both extremely happy and getting a bit of sleep here and there...



Apologies to those who've been trying to contact me. I'll get round to you soon!

Cheers

James

Congrats! You'll have to make a locost car seat for small children so they can ride with their parents. Think of it as an early retirement plan.

250k? is that how much they go for on the black market? a nice tidy profit there for you!

babies always look a bit like patrick moore to me

Fine looking young chap there, congratulations to you all. My wife just looked at him and said " AAhhh isn't he lovely." It looks like he's thinking "Who are you looking at ?"

Congratulations to you both, he looks a little smasher.

D Beddows - 2/6/10 at 06:37 AM

congratulations! I'm sat here with 5 week old Jake on my knee having his breakfast bottle. It's all good fun but there should be better tv on a 5am for dads up feeding little people

Cars are good but babies are amazing!

Congrats. The trick is not to think about the cost. Just enjoy.
