Yesterday was supposed to be a relaxed and uneventful New Year’s Eve for Emily and I but it would seem someone had other plans for us… Or at least wanted to ensure that the end of 2009 went out on the most positive note possible.

As it turns out we spent the night at Women’s College Hospital, not too far from home under the wonderful care of nurse Rebecca, who along with the other fantastic staff there helped deliver our new baby boy.

Our special little guy was born at 10:21PM and came in at a healthy 8lbs and with a pretty full head of hair, just like his big sister Gillian. We didn’t know in advance whether it would be a boy or a girl, so now comes the fun part — picking out a name.

Thanks again to all our friends and well-wishers — we can’t wait to give you a proper introduction!
