A little girl got the best Christmas present of all - a brand new baby brother.
Reuben Shackleford was born on Christmas Day at Royal Berks, weighing 8lb.
He was welcomed into the world by mum Amy Wilde, dad James Shackleford and big sister Ayla-Mae.
Mum Amy said: "We are all totally in love with our Christmas baby!
"My due date was supposed to be today 27th December. We knew that he was going to be a boy but had kept his name a secret until his arrival!
"It was a crazy Christmas Day with all of my family. I just about managed some Christmas dinner before my waters broke at home 5.30pm and he arrived by 6.31pm! Everything went so well we were back home with our little girl at 10.45pm."
