Joshua James has arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am elated, overwhelmed, ecstatic, and the happiest lady ever today. My first grandson, Joshua James has finally arrived...................................... I an crying as I write this post, I cannot believe the beautiful gift I have received from Faye and Ash today, my beautiful grandson, I have never been so proud in my life.

Just look at his chubby little cheeks!!!!! Weighing in at 7lb and 15 ozs his cheeks will be a tadge chubby!!!!!!! He looks so like Ash.

It was a bit of a truamatic birth, by an emergency caesarean which has left Faye quite the worse for wear, but at least they are both OK.



And here I am, my first photo with my darling grandson, who arrived at 9.28 am this morning. He is 57cms long which is apparently a long baby.


And last but by no means last, my wonderful daughter Faye, painfully feeding her new born son.......................................Words just fail me........................................

PS Paul still has the pleasure of meeting his first grandson tonight, and I know he will be sobbing with joy. Hop to share a couple more photo's soon.
