Oh congrats. I thought when I saw her online at 5 am she was up early! Good reason to be up. That is wonderful news!
add to that bits about hair, and how well he cries and make sure you tell us how lovely he looks!

Congratulations Eirian - that's wonderful news.
Sadly I'm not sure that you'll have much time for sitting with your feet up doing puzzles, but maybe you'll be a dab hand at holding him with one hand and puzzling with the other.
Does he have a name yet?

Many congratulations to Eirian, delighted to hear the news.
And congrats also to Granny Wulfruna and uncle Scurra.
Let's hope he's a good sleeper so the puzzling can continue.

Thanks for passing on the great news, and pass all our best wishes back to the new Mum
Hope everyone involved is fit and well.
It sounds like he's had a but of a 'hurry up' to give himself the best chance at the new puzzle mag.... no point in hanging around a week or so to be born and giving the other 'children of puzzlers' too much of a head start
I can imagine in now:
"Uncle Scurra! Uncle Scurra!! Gimme a clue......"

A quick 5 minutes (literally), before I need to go back to Eirian, but details are as follows :-
Contractions started just before 4:30 this morning.
Baby born at 10:31 this morning.
Weight - 7lb 12oz
Length - 20 inches (just over 60 cm)
Name -
Thomas James Riley
Mother and baby are being kept in overnight and baby will be checked over late morning
Hair - yes, dark
Piccies - none yet as they are on my wife's camera and I have no idea how to download from it

Thank you Sigur Ros. Congratulations to you too.
I have already said it but poor daddy seems to be rather forgotten so I'll say it again

Congratulations Eirian and Sigur Ros! (and to Wulfruna and Scurra too )
Sounds like she didn't waste much time once she started.
Looking forward to the pictures, who does he look like?
Gill has he registered on the forum yet?

He needs an email address first and I doubt mum or dad have thought much about Puzzlebrains today

Just a quick couple of piccies for now (apologies for their large size)...
....and apparently he already knows the answers to most of the puzzles...

The second one is definitely an AHA! moment . Which puzzle was he solving?
He is gorgeous.
