Introducing...
Toby Samuel Marsh, who was born at 00:55 on Thursday 28 September. He weighed in at 7lb 15oz.
Deborah and Toby are both well although Deborah is understandably exhausted and feeling very knocked about. Isaac is looking forward to meeting his new baby brother a little later on today.
Here are a few photos from Toby's first couple of hours in the world:





Why Toby Samuel?
Toby - this name means 'God is good'. This is the front-page-headline of our lives. The name Toby acts as a reminder to keep this truth in mind in the bad times as well as the good;
Samuel - This is a wonderful name. In the Bible, Samuel was someone who listened to God's directions and acted on them. By choosing this name, we are also carrying on the tradition of stealing names for our children from Ed's brother, Samuel Peter Isaac Marsh!
