Day 3
Sunday 12th August 2012
We were fast asleep last night when we were awoken by the phone just after 11pm with the news
“IT’S A BOY”
HARRY PETER
was born at 10:58pm weighing in at 3.2kl (7lb) length 48cm head 32cm,
With a labour of 1hr 20min; eat your hearts out girls
This is getting old hat leaving on time; however, for the next 10 days at least we will not have to worry as we will be in Queanbyan. Today was trouble free, filling up with fuel at Narrandera I asked the attendant how long cotton had been grown in the area, about 12 months with a cotton gin in Darlington, apparently cotton grows very well in this area, damm it!!
We were met at the caravan park by Thomas & Brett, after a short time Thomas took to us as if he see’s us every day. Time only to set up the van then off to the hospital to see Harry and Mary, he is so gorgeous. The first photo we saw I feel he looks like Brett, seeing him in person he has features of my brother Bill, I have a photo of Brett nursing Harry, a lot of similarities in the face and forehead.
We are staying with Brett & Thomas for a few days whist Mary & Harry are in hospital, Thursday will see us back in the van, until then we are forced to endure hot showers and toilet in an adjoining room and being entertained by our little man Thomas.
Keep the shiny side up
