well he's here at last
arived at about 21.15 bmt on 21st
and "only" 9 pounds 14 ounces
with the help of some forceps and countless midwifes

Congratulations Wow, you must be very proud. I've been following your journals, and it seems he was just biding his time. Half thought he might have been aiming for the 28th with this year being a leap year

Really pleased for you and Kham, congratulations

... obviously the 29th would be more interesting than the 28th, but who can read babies minds eh?

well done twinker, and give the little blighter a big hug from me

I am so happy and chuffed for the three of you, but I knowwho's the boss, even before he speaks


I toast the health of all three

Conratulations!

Interesting choice of name too, don't hear many Ephraim's...

9lb 14oz??? Oh My! *faints*


Well done, Anthea!

Congratulations to you and Khamsin!

thank you all
I'll get Joe to stick a photo up somewhere later
he's only just fitting into newborn cloathes so its a good thing i got more of the next size up

head circumphrence of 37.1 apparently
I was a little off the planet somewhere when he did come along

lots of darkish hair and very fair skin that goes all red when he's upset

and long fingers
which reminds me i must cut his nails at some point...

but i think someones starting to wake up now so i shall spare you the rest of the boring bits

Dr A

we chose the name ephraim because we thought it was different enough so he would be the only one we know
but not so odd that he gets teased for it at school

plus ephraim was the son of Joseph with the dream coat in the bible
which is kinda cute really...

Plus he can always go by his middle name

Suppose it doesn't rhyme with anything, so he's safe that way.

*makes a very rare appearance*
Congratulations, all of you Glad everything's well!

Congrats...Hope the little sprog takes after you and not Joe, as noone likes an ugly baby

Definitely doesn't take after me... much

Congrats guys! I was beginning to wonder when the lil un would make an appearance

one thing I know for sure, myself, Anthea and Joe have never met, But! I know E.J.T. will have my trust in the fact that he will be brought up by 2 loving parents,who will instil goodness and all the virtues that will give him one hell of a start in life


ps. don't let him near the turnips yet
