More baby pics I'm afraid but with a new baby son I just can't help myself :D

This is Harry, (looking a little beaten up to start with) born on 3rd Jan weighing in at 8 lbs 13oz (4.00Kg in new) both him and Erin are doing great!!

Taken 2-3 mins after he was born, this is is his 1st ever picture, not the best I know but I was an emotional wreck by this stage :wink

Evie was so excited and has just been fantastic with him :lust

It was good to get them home and it didn't take him long to settle in

    Congrats!!! Your wife was looking very well for just after the delivery. I can remember the process when my son was born - Leslie was looking like a train wreck afterwards (but the labor was about 14 hours long - she was entitled).

    I'm really digging the third from last (wife cuddling child). That is a powerful photograph.

    Congratulations on the birth of your son and on these fine photographs.

    Harry may look a bit beat up in #1, but Mom looks terrific. Look forward to many more of this wee one.

    Congratulations and welcome to little Harry! He is a cutie. I just oooohed and aahhhhed as I viewed each photo. The toned ones are especially nice and the lighting in those is perfect. I especially like #5. Mom looks great! thumb.gif

    Your son is beautiful! And the pictures are superb. I love the lighting in Eating and Cuddling. Pictures for the ages.

    Congratulations to you, your wife and Evie.

    What treasures these are! I agree that your wife looks stunning, especially after just giving birth! The yellow and white one and the second-to-last are my favorites, but they are all simply wonderful. Congrats to you all!

    Oh how I LOVE newborn pics...makes me want to have another ASAP, though my youngest is only 12m.

    I especially love the breastfeeding pics, but I am a HUGE advocate of BFing, so that's why, I guess! WAY TO GO, MOM!

    The pics are gorgeous...keep 'em coming!!

    Congrats!

    Congrats Gubbs!!! It seems like just yesterday that you were waiting for Evie. It even shocked me at how long ago that was and how vividly I remembered your images. All the best to the 4 of you.

    Thanks for linking back to the "Evie" post, reading it all again makes it seem like yesterday.
    Time flies by at an ever increasing rate, it's frightening. That was over 2 years ago! I'm so glad I have sooo many pictures to help remember it all.
