Introducing Enrique Raftery Carnicero

Enrique Raftery Carnicero

This is our new son Enrique Raftery Carnicero. Born on Tuesday morning May 23rd at 06:43 weighing 6lb 10oz (3.01kg). Welcome to the world little Enrique and please sleep a little better/more than your older brother Tomás!

Thanks everyone for the good wishes – Pilar and Enrique are coming home this morning.

For anyone who is interested there are more pics over on Flickr

Edited to correct the time of birth after Donagh Kiernan pointed out in the comments that I mis-typed it!

    Fabalous photos Tom

    Technicality: Is the time of birth correct at 7:43 – because your blog post annoucing Enrique’s birth was at 7:27

    But maybe you were posting early

    I’m sucker for baby photos. Enrique is beautiful and tell his mother that she looks fantastic.

    Tom,
    Congratulations. So happy for all of you. Like Damien said, I’m also a sucker for baby photos. Thank you for sharing. Joy and love to the family.

    Donagh… I think the server is running an hour behind.

    Well done Tom. Lovely looking baby. All the best on the sleep front….

    Thanks everyone – as it happens Donagh is absolutely correct, Enrique was born at 06:43 on Tuesday morning – a mis-type on my part. Put it down to lack of sleep!

    Congratulations Tom, I know we could have tried for the same day but still pretty close :D

    Wow, he’s gorgeous!!! I especially like the flickr picture of you holding him, and your wife looks so estatic. If I had just been in Cork a couple of weeks later, I might have gotten to see him…ah well, if wishes were horses, we’d all be eating steak! I hope you’re all doing well, and that Tomas is enjoying his new little brother! Yours, Charleen
