12 days fashionably late, Joshua William arrived after a quick-ish labour. We were booked for an induction the next day but Josh obviously was as keen as me to avoid that!
He was 3.6kg and 57cm long, he has gorgeous blonde ginger hair and big blue eyes! We are in love. Despite meconium in the waters and a long long 2nd stage, Josh was really healthy on arrival - praise God for answered prayers!
Oh Ruth I am so happy to read this!! Praise God for this precious little man who has already been much prayed for!!
Welcome to the world little Joshua, May the Lord bless thee and keep thee always.
Enjoy your babymoon and recover well Ruth, and again I am sooo overjoyed for you all!!
