She's so beautiful. Huge congrats to you both, she's lovely and will definitely grow up with her mummy's features!

Things are going well so far, she seems a very contented baby

Lots of pics going up on Facebook and a video too as it seems the easiest place update things and I can just send them straight from the iPhone

If you aren't on my friends list for Facebook feel free to add me

We came home on Wednesday evening and are things seem to be going well.

I stayed up with her on Wednesday night as Heather was very tired and needed a nights sleep and Amelie was fine, she is a placid baby and doesn't tend to cry unless there is a good reason. I have got to grips with nappies and to be honest they aren't terrible to do, just a bit messy but not stinky. Because Amelie is a little lazy Heather is expressing milk for her but it is working well and Amelie is getting all the food she needs, we are hoping that she will move to a more direct delivery method soon but there is no rush.

We have recieved lots of cards and presents and they are delightful so thank you to everyone who has been in touch and to everyone who sent messages on Facebook and text messages, sorry if we haven't been in touch to say thank you but she is pretty intense and time consuming (I spend a lot of time just stareing at her whilst she sleeps). Midwives have been and given her a clean bill of health so everything is positive and we just need to get used to surviving on half the usual amount of sleep

It's really odd just how much it feels like a new family baby has been born, rather than friends. Big hugs to you all xx

More pictures for Amelie fans





Thank you to everyone who has sent a gift, some of them have been very very generous and we're very lucky to have such thoughtful and kind friends!

We would be delighted for people to come and visit, all we ask is that we get a phone call in advance. She is beautiful and we are keen to show people
