Baby Carrot!!

But of course, the renewed interest in blogging was inspired by another much anticipated arrival ...

Sophie Isabelle Patten arrived on July 3rd at 2.40pm ... less than 9 hours after I'd gotten off the phone to her sneaky mother!

Most startlingly, Sophie has become a facebook baby with Aunty Mitch and Aunty Meg announcing her arrival to the world before mummy and daddy had a chance! But the beauty of facebook is that even before it hits 2.40pm in the UK, I can already see photos!

My indignant phone call was interrupted by the arrival to the hospital of big sister Hannah so I've got no idea what size Sophie is, or if she's anywhere near as long as her sister was ...

Ern, Ads, Hannah and all the family seem completely besotted ... but I'm beyond excited and feeling terribly homesick all of a sudden!

Sorry Liz........

Stats are:
3.060kg (6lb 12oz - 70g or 3oz more than Hannah)
52cm (the same as her big sister)
HC 34cm (half a centimetre more than Hannah)

Sorry about the facebook announcement too; Aunty Mitch (tee hee hee) was not thinking!!

Sent you some more pics earlier so you should have your fill for a while :)

Not your fault! I was too excited to ask those sorts of facts!!

And it'll just teach me not to procrastinate so long in the future when contemplating buying a new phone!!

Pics are lovely ... they've done the job very well ...
