Hi everyone, Lisa and I have decided that a Blog would be a great way to let all our friends and family know how our little girl is progressing in her first few tough days, weeks and months.

This is Olivia Grace Earp's story and we would love you to enjoy the highs with us and keep her in your thoughts during the lows.

I apologise for the rambling nature and somewhat thrown together appearance of the Blog but I don't have much time at the moment!

********You need to read from the bottom up with Blogs so the newest post is always at the top. Look to the right of the page and click on "Olivia's Story Post Archive" for the earlier posts***********

We are proudly supporting the Cots for Tots appeal to raise £1 million for vital equipment at St Michael's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Please have a look at the website and donate a few pounds if you can.

We're Pregnant!

Wow, wow, wow!! Really? Are you sure?  How many weeks gone are you? And... is it mine? Are all perfectly valid questions to ask when you get home from work one evening to find your wife brandishing a pregnancy test stick and a huge smile.



We had decided before the wedding in May that we would start trying for a baby as soon as we were married as we both wanted to start a family and neither of us were getting any younger. What we didn't plan for was how quickly that family would start....We were extremely fortunate in our first month of trying Lisa fell pregnant and I was both elated that my boys were up to the job but also slightly dismayed that the trying seemed to be over before it had begun!!
