Hiya, Kaphc - wonderful to hear from you.

Congratulations again - you must be over the moon just now - a lovely baby girl.

Love to you, dad and baby Madeleine - what a lovely name.

P.S. Would you like me to change your 'User Name' to the one you told me earlier? I think it'd be more than appropriate now!

What wonderful news. A very warm welcome to Madeleine Ruth. Will she become the youngest member of TiBB? Can't start 'em soon enough!!!

I'm sure she's an absolute angel and she'll fill your life with so much happiness. Well done.

Congratulations to kaphc and welcome to the world Madeleine. Have a great life!

------------------------------

Only a baby small,
Dropt from the skies;
Only a laughing face,
Two sunny eyes;
Only two cherry lips,
One Chubby nose;
Only two little hands,
Ten little toes.

Only a golden head,
Curly and soft;
Only a tongue that wags
Loudly and oft;
Only a little brain;
Empty of thought;
Only a little heart,
Troubled with naught.

Only a tender flower,
Sent us to rear;
Only a life to love
While we are here;
Only a baby small,
Never at rest;
Small, but how dear to us,
God knoweth best.

I've just come back from visiting kaphc and have just met little Maddy for the first time.

She is lovely, really smiley with big blue eyes.

I've just spent a very happy half hour chatting to mummy and daddy with Maddy falling asleep in my arms.

Both mum and baby are well, Katharine is understandably a little tired but says that herself and her hormones are just about getting back to normal, and as OH is also home at the moment they are sharing baby duties and she is managing to get a reasonable amount of sleep.

She said to thank you all for your messages and promises to put a picture up soon for you all to ooh and aah at.

[Kaz]

Awwww, bless. Thanks for the update, LEE - glad to hear kaphc, her OH and baby Maddy are all well.

Looking forward to seeing the picture of our first TiBB baby - all her surrogate aunties and uncles will be SO proud!
