Meet James Harry Moretti

General 7 Comments »
Born today at 2:15pm GMT, James weighed in at 8lb 12oz (3.950kg). Somehow I doubt that the maternity staff at North Tyneside General hospital would ever read my blog, but a BIG thank you to everyone there that helped in the delivery of James, especially Sarah the midwife. James was a bit of a lazy git and while Gayle and I were up at 2am this morning, in hospital at 5am and Gayle was ready and waiting for his arrival from 10:30am he had to be dragged out of his warm cosy place to meet the world. Both Gayle and James are doing fine and currently resting in hospital, while I drink a LARGE glass of wine and sort out the first photos onto Flickr.
