Welcome to the world my Baby Boy!

Our baby boy arrived, surprising us all by coming into the world a month early!

Declan was born on Saturday January 30th at 4.26am, weighing 2.7 kilos/6 pounds after a relatively short 6 hour labor. Because he was premature we had to stay in the hospital for 9 days until the nurses were sure he was strong enough to come home. He had a little jaundace for a while and had to be put under a special light to help him heal.

As he was premature he also had some feeding problems, so for a while he needed a tube in his nose so that he could get all the food he needed to grow big and strong. But they took that out 3 days ago.

We are so happy that we could finally bring him home yesterday, our little man is with us at last!

My sleepy little boy

I will add some more photos soon, we can't find the charger for my good camera so all our photos so far have been taken with my iPhone. I'm going to buy a new charger today so I can take some really good photos for my collection.

Gift Cards

After some encouragement from a friend or two I have decided to venture into selling gift cards featuring my little mice. These are the first photos of my prototype card.

The card measures 132 x 132 mm (5.3" x 5.3") when folded. Printed on high quality medium weight white card using a proffessional photo-quality Epson R1800 Printer. I am going to offer them sold individually, in sets and also some made to order. I can make a card of any mouse featured in my Etsy Store! All cards come with a 140mm x 140mm (5.5" x 5.5") envelope in a choice of colors.

The cards are blank inside as standard I can print a personal message inside if desired.
