^ Wow, Claire, that is cool. I don't know much about astrology but whenever I read something like this, I enjoy it. It certainly has its charms.
I do like your website, most especially the parts about Louise's namesakes. I will look forward to reading about the Viscount's namesakes. The suspense never ends with the royals, does it? Now that he is born, it's like........ ok.......... name please, NAME NAME NAME! Tell us now!

Since the Queen and Sophie appear to be close.....maybe she'll visit? I'm hoping so.
Didn't HM visit Sarah after the birth of one of her girls? I want to say it was Beatrice because there was a bit of a difficult birth. But I may be mistaken.

Interesting order, CasT. Well, considering Peter is to be married in May, I'd def. say he's a good bet for the 1st great grandchild. I dunno about Zara being next. I think she's more a career woman now. I wouldn't be surprised if Beatrice married earlier than some of her other relatives.

More baby news. This is from the BBC (it includes a short video as well).
Although they left very quickly Frimley Park since it was quite cold, Sophie was extremely warm towards to hospital staff.

What a beautiful little chap. Both parents looked extremely proud and happy.
I am also excited about finding out his name. Hope that is the next thing that happens.
Thanks to all who posted pictures and video links.

Thank you everyone for the photos and links. I'm so happy for this family and that there were no complications this time around. I love the photo of P. Edward gazing into his son's face. He looks so happy and proud. Sophie looks great!

Sophie looks wonderful, and it is very touching how friendly she was to the staff. But what is the big deal about the baby being born at this hospital?

Thursday, 20 December 2007: Baby Severn leaves the hospital with his parents....




Hello! --> Proud parents Sophie and Edward take their son home for Christmas

I am glad they are spending private time at Bagshot Park but I still hope they will go to Sandringham at least for the Christmas Day traditions.

It was fun to see (on the BBC video) Prince Edward putting the baby in the car seat, and very sweet of Sophie to hug and kiss all the staff who cared for her. Maybe Lady Louise was in the car and rode home with her new brother next to her.

IIRC this hospital was the same one Sophie was rushed to when she gave birth to Louise prematurely. Here's a link New mum Sophie Wessex leaves hospital
Viscount Severn is adorable and Sophie and Edward look thrilled!
