Rudi – Hello World

It’s not often I write much personal stuff here but this is a BIG one.

At 02:02 on 21st March our baby boy was born. He was 54cm in length and weighed 6lb 13oz.

Both Jo and Rudi are doing great!

Here’s a bit of video taken yesterday of him on his changing mat getting used to his surroundings and having a sneeze ;) .

I can’t put into words how proud I am of Jo. Thank You!
