Baby Maisie arrives at last!


After running 5 days late, Miss Maisie Stella Rose Francois arrived in a hurry at 7:32 on Sunday night. Mr F was just starting to think about what to do in R18 on Monday when Emma started to feel a few baby twinges. Within 1/2 hour we were on our way to hospital and 25mins after arrival, our beautiful baby girl emerged. She is a tiny wee dot at 6.11pound and 48cm. Everyone is doing well and Harry is being a fantastic big bro...so far!
