All Doing Well
Anna and I got to the hospital for our nine o'clock appointment and, after a few minutes of relaxation, it was the whirlwind of listening, nodding and signing that accompanies most operations. Then it was down to theatre for the scary injections and monitoring that all was well, before the obstetrician started his work.
I'm very pleased to report that our new healthy baby boy, James Blissett Hughes, was born at 11:32am and weighed in at 7lbs 12.6oz. Anna is also doing very well and, despite having had to go through surgery again, is recovering excellently.
I also took Caitlin to see her new brother this evening and she showed a, probably typical, combination of interest and confusion. We had arranged some gifts for the two to exchange and, once Caitlin saw the new shoes that she received, she was very keen to take them for a good walk around the maternity ward.

Lovely to see the pictures of the new arrival.
Mmmm James Blissett, the name seems familiar.
C.A.J - Caitlin, Anna, James - these are your initials chris so i guess the next baby will begin with H.
Now the birth is over how about seeing if you could help with the cricket.
