We've been promoted to grandparents!

Hello dear friends:

Most of my family, and some of my close friends have already heard me shout my news, since I first heard it this morning...but for all those blogging friends that haven't yet heard, here are the exciting news:
Our first grandson, Joshua was born this morning (23rd November) at 9,40AM, with 3,440kg and 51cm.

After a long labour, Mom and Baby are doing well. I've already visited him twice in hospital today, where my daughter in law will stay for another day.
We are so excited to have a little baby to spoil.
My parents living in Portugal are super excited to have a second great-grandson born this year.



And we finally feel we are entitled to use the mugs we were given as a present when the pregnancy was announced.
