Tonks and I would like to introduce you all to our son Adam Theodore Arthur Tonks, born at 7:45 this morning, just after sunrise. Eight pounds, two ounces, and very indignant that he's been kicked out of his nice warm cosy nest and into this big bright noisy madhouse. He has a full head of red hair, ten absolutely perfect adorable fingers and toes, and a remarkably tolerant nature to put up with all the people who were fussing over him this morning. He and Tonks are both resting up after the exhausting night they had.

(I can't get over how beautiful he is. And how tiny. And how perfect.)

The current plan is to give Tonks and Adam a few days to recover a bit, then anybody who wants to come meet Adam can! Ron, Ginny, I can try to find somebody to do a sketch for you if you want. Or you can come meet your new nephew over Easter hols. Mum's already here to help out, and she's going to be staying a few days, so if you need her, that's where she is.

None of the things you told us to look for happened when he was born, really. There was half a second when anyone in the house felt like up was down and down was left and everything was topsy-turvy, but it went away quickly and didn't come back.

Brilliant! A new nephew AND future customer!

Outstanding news. We're dead chuffed to be uncles.

I'm so happy for you all. I hope I'll get to see him over Easter.

He's utterly beautiful!

Born on Imbolc, the turning of winter into spring. I'd say that's a very hopeful sign.

Congratuations.

Hey, Papa, put the sprog down for a few minutes and come have some sandwiches. I understand it's important to eat when you get the chance.
