Default I'm a dad!

My son Andrew was born early hours of Wednesday 13th 8lb 5oz after an emergency c - section:





The little fella had a bit of a rough time and he's still in the special care baby unit at the moment but hopefully he will be released in the next few days. I'm well chuffed at being a dad - best experience in the world

He's still in hospital at the moment so haven't experienced either of those yet! The missus is still in the hospital as well so its been pretty quiet the last few nights, home alone with just beer and passionford. Hopefully they will both get released at the weekend.
