He's here! (By the Husband).

The ginger is now in two halves, with two gingers!

Yep, Cuinn is a red, much to the dlight of both sets of grandparents.

Simonne was an absolute champion, but in the end we had to have a ceaser, as though the boy was coming out the head first, he decided to arrive upside down (i.e. looking at the roof) so there were some fittage issuses.

Long and the short of it is that we have a very healthy boy at (get this), 3940 grams, or in old speak 8lb 11oz! Mom is very tired but glowing madly and dad is just stuffed!

Thank you for sharing your journey with us, it's been a privilege and we'll so be so excited to watch the Little Ginger grow up.

btw, if cuinn arrived looking the wrong way, sounds like he has his mothers sense of direction - oops.
