Finally...

He's here!

I say finally but he was actually 8 day's earlier than his due date but never the less, I was still verrry relieved to have not gone over the 10th...

I introduce to you:

Arthur James, born on the 2nd of December at 3:10am, weighing in at 8lb 4oz (a little less than what the consultant said I was having... where is my gigantic baby!? After Rose weighing 9lb 3oz when she was born, I was expecting at least 10lb's!) and he's beautiful. :-)



I'm already totally in love with him and can't imagine being without him. Rose is loving him just as much, thankfully... and she's constantly wanting to give the baby cuddles and kisses at the moment. It's very sweet.


The last couple of day's have been pretty exhausting but I'm sure we'll get into the swing of things soon enough..!

Love Ashley xxx

  3. Congratulations Ashley, he is totally adorable. My third baby was due on December 10th but came a bit early too. Handy to keep his Birthday and Christmas separate.
    Funnily enough I was also told he was going to be really big and he was 6lb 13 oz!!
    Hope you find a routine that suits you all very soon.Well done.

  7. CONGRATULATION ASHLEY! He is a cute little bundle. And Rose is so sweet giving kisses. I remember when Luca was born and Nelly was 2 yrs and 8 months... She loved him to death from the first look. It is a great feeling to see. Hope you will get into routine and recharge soon. Happy Christmas and enjoy every second. ♥♥♥

  46. Hi there. Congratulations! Sorry to be a little late but with a 3 week old myself getting on the computer at the moment is tough. He looks gorgeous. Love the name too. Isn't it sweet how the older one likes to give kisses and cuddles. My Frederick is just the same as Rose, constantly wanting to kiss Harry. Makes your heart melt. Enjoy these first weeks. It's hard work with two but so lovely. Enjoy your first Christmas as a family of four. Fiona x

  48. Oh my - how very lovely! Sorry this is sooo late (various blogs have not been showing up in my Reading List - grrr!) Arthur James looks an absolute bundle of perfection and what a lovely big sister Rose is going to be. Hope you have all spent a very peaceful (?) and most of all, joyful first Christmas together, and may 2013 bring everything you'd all wish for!
