A big welcome


to Samuel John arrived safely at 1:20 pm this afternoon, 3.37 kg, 7lb 7oz, Rachel and Samuel are doing well, Samuel has been mostly sleeping and snorting. Aaron and Maddison are very excited about their baby brother, it was very nice to see their first hold and cuddle.

Samuel here is just 3 hours old looking very alert, and very much like Aaron when he was new born.

How wonderful! Congratulations. As someone who is also the mother of a 'big sister' and 'little brother' I think you will find them a wonderful combination! Best wishes to you all.
