WELCOME: Chelsea and Blake Shaw with baby Austin, the first baby to arrive on New Year's Day at Redland Hospital.
BABY Austin was in a hurry and arrived 22 days early, making him Redland Hospital's first baby for 2021.
Victoria Point couple Chelsea and Blake Shaw welcomed their first child on New Year's Day. The bundle of joy made an appearance at 4.14pm, weighing 2.5 kilograms.
The new parents knew they were having a boy and Dad gifted him with his first football.
The Shaws said they were looking forward to introducing baby Austin to Frank the bull terrier at home.
"The whole experience was positive. Very happy to meet him and looking forward to the journey ahead," Ms Shaw said.
