It appears my 'tomorrow' was slightly optimistic! Anyway, here we are :)
Ruben Jonathan Simkins was born on Friday 22nd June 2012 at 11.56. He weighed 8lb 80oz (3,860g) and (for those who are interested) had a head circumference of 37cm. For those who are wondering, English hospitals don't measure length at birth for some reason, so I can't give you official version of that (I guess it is quite hard to straighten them out and get an accurate reading!) I would say he is 'quite long' :)
For the non-present family (and any others who are interested) here are some photos:

Current most-heard phrase in our house at the moment
(and not just from Bethany):
"He's soooooo cute!"

"How big were they expecting me to be? You could fit two of me in here!"
