Then, unfortunately Neil had a nasty accident at work falling over 2 metres when stepping onto a ladder which turned out not to be secured. He fell flat onto his back and was shortly in an ambulance to hospital. Not what your heavily pregnant wife needs on a Monday morning being called to emergency! He has cracked a vertebrae in his lower back and will be out of action for 3 months. But after a couple of days in hospital we found out that he could have a brace therefore he can move around and recover at home.
Luckily Jessie decided not to put in an appearance while Neil was flat on his back. She did however arrive Easter Monday(13th April) at 8.22pm. I had mild contractions all day but due to very heavy rain we decided to go to the hospital in good time. Which turned out to be a good job as shortly after getting there my contractions really kicked in and an hour later Jessica was born.
She weighed 3.29kg (7lb 4oz) and has been a very good girl so far!
Bradley is very taken with his little sister.
Lots of photos for you!

Wow, Neil and CJ! Just thought I'd check up on what's going on down there and was delighted to see the news of Jessica's arrival.
Congratulations to all parties involved.
But I was certainly sorry to read about your fall, Neil. Praying you have a speedy and complete recovery.
