Little boy without a name

My blog has been abandoned over the last couple of weeks - I've been far too busy sitting around the house feeling very uncomfortable and even more grumpy. My due date came and went, and with it went any remaining humour or patience left inside me (there wasn't much by then though).

Labour began at midnight on my 9th day overdue - interestingly I also started labour with Milo at midnight on the 9th day overdue. Labour was much faster than with Milo - a total of 4 and a half hours. The pushing stage lasted only 15 minutes and most of that i didn't have to do anything as he was on his way quite nicely without need of help - Milo must have left the path well trodden! So Milo's little brother finally entered the world gurgling, spluttering and crying in the wee hours of Thursday 29th January '09.

At the moment he's known as 'little boy', we must decide on a name soon.

Milo meets his brother for the first time...

Kisses - aah...
