And so, our first child, Alexander-James (AJ) Cyril Westlake was born at 13:35 on Saturday 7th June 2014, weighing in at an impressive 9lbs 7.
At approximitely 10:35 on Saturday 7th June 2014, after two days already spent in hospital, my wife confirmed, between desparate gasps of air and gas, that he was going to be an only child.
And so, AJ is now 15 days old and I now have that dreaded 'I'm due back in work tomorrow feeling.'
So what are my thoughts concerning Baby Westlake and fatherhood so far?
Well, AJ is undoubtedly a vampire. There is no other explanation why he would sleep all day and then rave all night.
He has an uncanny knack of weeing up in the air.
He is always a little angel whenever we have guests around and then, soon as the front door shuts, he turns into a rascal.
Oh, and our little boy is absolutely beautiful and we both cannnot wait for that first smile!
Time for a nap before the night shift begins.
