Uwila birth announcement

Hi,

Mr Uwila here - Mrs Uwila asked me to pass along details of our newborn, Alex, who was brought blinking (and crying, loudly) into the world at just before midday today, weighing 7lb 8oz. Or thereabouts.

Both mother and son and doing fine, albeit both are very tired. Alex did experience some initial breathing difficulties but those settled down after a few hours (a good deal of gunk in the lungs). Right now all he does is sleep... until probably midnight or so, I guess!

With best wishes
