Yesterday was the first day ever i posted a blog so that i could say congrats. Last nights programme your happiness came through to us all ( well it did me) and made me warm all evening. Hope things are still all ok. again THANKS CHRIS, TASH AND LITTLE (LOVELY) NOAH XXX

Smoking a cigar with a couple of drinks after the birth is a man thing, and rightly so. I'm with you on that Christophe.

Don't come back down for a bit. Stay where you are. Enjoy it.

And watch that re-entry when you do finally come down from that cloud.

Remember where the last re-entry got you.....Daddy :-)

Tobes

nice one Tobes!

that's better! How lovely to see those beautiful eyes open!

Tiggs xxx

I had to save the photo into 'My Pictures' in order to see it, but it was worth it - he is the most beee-yooo-tiful little boy.

Do you really want to come back down to earth Christoph? It sounds just peachy where you are !!!

jillygoat xx

Norty Tobes!!!!

Chris, Noah doesn't need to cry, he's got millions of us doing it for him!!!!

To all the new bloggers - please stay - it's lovely here!

T xxx

Seriously - can I have one - he is just so cute.

Well done again, you've certainly lifted a nation of Radio 2 listeners out of the normal doom and gloom that is life.

We love you Chris (and Tash and Noah)

Brilliant pic CLP.

He has that twinkle in his eye. I think you are going to have trouble with him ;-)

They grow up so fast so make the most of it.

Best wishes to you all.

ThunderclapN

Have never posted before Chris - am an intermittent listener (only because of my work and my demanding toddler!) but have been waiting for news of the birth. Congratulations to you and Natasha - welcome to the rollercoaster that is a new baby! Sending you all the love in the world xxxx

P.S. Loving the pics, Noah looks like a very wise, all-knowing (albeit very small) old man yet he is just an ickle baby, how curious! He is gorgeous, making me broody - or at least I will be until my toddler starts playing up again!! :-)

Noah has got to be the most adorable little boy I've seen in a long time (my own two were both that gorgeous!)

Be careful though, they grow up and fast!!

Congratulations to you both! I don't normally write on blogs but the warmth and tangible, pure joy in Chris' voice was a delight on last nights show. Even my boys, Jake ,8 and Gus,5, were thrilled, especially Gus as Noah is his middle name.

Noah is a beautiful boy who will thrive with such obviously doting parents. Wow!

Much love,

Manda xx

PS Chris keep flying, Noahs give you wings!! x

When I saw the photo made me think of Bernie Taupin's lyrics:
Blue eyes, baby's got blue eyes....
Stay on Cloud Nine for as long as you can, it's a great place to be.

I am just like Noah.......brand spanking new to this website (and to blogging.) Just had to join in the thousands of messages of congratulations. So much doom and gloom at the moment......it's so lovely to hear (and see!) such lovely news. God bless you all three!!!
xxxxxxxxxx

Aye what's 'appened.... when a looked at the photo a few minutes ago, it was a VERY BIG close up, only of the stiching on the blanket....

Or me computer is on the blink!!!!
Or both!

Welcome to the world Noah!

Congratulations - he is sooo gorgeous.

My first ever blog!!!!

oh isn't he the cutest thing youve ever seen? he is now filling out after being squashed in mummy's tummy for all that time. he looks so wide awake-don't worry about the crying -that will soon come-but in the meantime all his fans are doing it for him! thank you once again tash and chris for sharing these special moments with us. enjoy these special times with noah-he will soon be all grown-up and acting like a teenager-and don't forget borrowing the cars! and money and staying out alnight-i still worry and can't sleep until my 26 year old comes home-it never goe's away-but thats only because we care and love our kiddiwinkles. love and kisses to tash and noah.xxx

Could not have asked for better Bday present. Well done Tash. Lol to the whole family, Eepo xxx

Noah will be nicking the old man's Ferrari before you know it.

Bueller, Bueller...........Bueller?

Tobes

God bless the 3 of you and the wider family!

Aw loving these pictures Chris, please keep'em coming!

I know that they change every day but I think that he looks like you in that photo.

The show was brilliant last night, sounded so genuine and happy.

Good for you.

Debbie x x x

As a mother of three boys - now nearly 6ft tall - I'm so envious - cherish every minute.

The show last night was magical - I cried while peeling the potatoes!

Looking forward to tonight's show for more updates

Love to all xxxx

Many Congrats Chris and Tash on the mighty arrival of little Noah. From the photo, you guys have done very well!!

I've been reading and enjoying your blog since its humble beginnings... but alas never commented. However over the last few months have waited to see what you were gonna call the new baba. Don't ask me why, but I always had this strong feeling that you would choose a name similar to the name we chose for my five mth old son. Similar minds or great minds, Im not too sure, but we called our son Noah James John. Enjoy the little one guys..

Hi B's Mum - Don't know what 'appened ter the photo when the blog first appeared?

It waz just a close up of stitching on the blanket!!!

But now a cute photo alright!!!!

Still can't decide who 'e looks like most.... Tash or CLP????

A think 'e's goot Tash's eyes!!!

Congratulations all of you, what a beautiful little boy!

Picture the scene.......

Ferris Bueller, Evans stylee........

Natasha:

"Noah, that is the 1961 Ferrari 250GT California. Less than a hundred were made. Your father spent three years restoring this car with all the money he stashed away in his post office account from the pittance those people at Radio 2 paid him.

It is his love, it is his passion........."

Noah:.........."It is his fault he didn't lock the garage Mum".

:-)

Tobes

What a little beauty, I'm sure that he will bring you much joy in the future. There is nothing in the whole world that is better than the laughter of your child, and the way they give you that utter trust!
God Bless you all.
PS I hope that you buy him a Warrrington Wolves strip very soon!

Wow - he's only just gone a day and a half old and he already looks really perceptive. He's soaking in everything. No wonder you're so happy. (You must stop apologising!)

You must be fed up with this, but congratulations again, Christophe!

Shouldnt that be "That WAS your Dad's Ferrari Noah"

Spot on Tobes

;-)

Chris,

Noah is just absolutely beautiful, there is no other word for it. Look at those eyes .... already so full of wisdom. I think he has the whole gig (life) sussed - at one day old!

Must say Chris, you two have made the cutest of babies.

I'm definitely up for Godmother status, should the position arise....I know, get in the queue.

Excited for you all, Chris, Tash, Big Sister Jade and Noah

Cathy T (and family) xxxx

I too have not blogged before yesterday, but just felt that I had to as I had been silently following the events of the last few months and when I saw him I just had to send on my congratulations.

Stay up there for a bit Chris and Tash and enjoy every minute of it.

Is it just me or does Noah seem to be looking at the camera and saying "why are you all making such a fuss, calm down you lot".

He is gorgeous.

mwah x

Chris and Tash

How gorgeous is Noah! This latest picture on the blog sent tears rolling down my cheeks.

All the luck in the world to the three of you. Treasure every moment they are all so precious.

I just had to join the blog to say what a beautiful son you have...he definitely is cool (like his dad). Congratulations to all of you.

Tiptopnoahfanxxx

I thought to myself last night while watching the news that I really shouldn't bother with it anymore.

There is very rarely any good news on there, just sad or bad stories.

Look at how wonderful it has been sharing Chris and Tash's good news, totally uplifting.

We need more good news about, to remind us of the amazing parts of life, the things that make us smile.

Just my opinion anyway :-)

Debbie x

Many congrats Chris - have been following the pre-labour antics on the show...what a beautiful boy , and a great name!
Lucky Mummy & Daddy - muchos felicidades!
Tell Tash that I am pig-jealous - no way could I have managed dinner during labour, well not without killing the waiters and generally destroying the dining room!

Looking forward to the E-spot on Friday - will have a special meaning this week.

Love to little Noah
Barbara xxx

His one gorgeous baby congrats to you and you wifey... They grow up fast so enjoy every moment with him.

Congratulations to you all. He really is such a beautiful baby. xxx

Oh he's a real little cutie-pie Lambie-pie!

Old blue eyes indeed... maybe we could have a listen to "How cute can you be" by the other famous "Ole-blue eyes Sinatra"

That face in the photo is saying

"I'm determined to be part of the Radio 1 family before I marture over to 88-91 FM.
I am a baby d.j and I'll do as I please . . .etc etc"

Fantastic photo Chris, thanks so much for sharing .. .

Again, love and best wishes to the three of you . .

And he should def be zen like, he has been out for lovely relaxing dinners for the last month. :)....so that obviously worked!! and now he knows there are all your zillions of listeners shedding tears of joy for him! Way to go Noah...!

Thank you CLP for sharing with us.

Look at him all swaddled up. He looks so relaxed. Glad he is being a good baby boy, although give it a couple of weeks!! Tash get the sleep in now!!!
Lots of love and cuddles xxxxxxx

Hi Chris, Tash and Noah

well last nights show was lovelly, it brought back so many memories of a year ago when my little man Harry was born. Hopefully he stays as chilled out as this for you both. best wishes to you both x

He is GORGEOUS and I am not even a baby person. Agree with what everyone has said, it's fantastic and so pleased for you all. Wish the three of you lots of love and luck together - families are the best.

Love to you

Hey Chris, sorry mate.

Noah is only a day old, and I've already got him down as a car thief (above).

:-)

Tobes

Oh he is just so lovely - look at those big beautiful eyes.

Congratulations :) I am sure he brings much joy and happiness to your new little family.

"To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children, to earn the approbation of honest critics; to appreciate beauty; to give of one's self, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived--that is to have succeeded"

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Debbie #59: I agree with you, absolutely. For some reason, I feel it's my "duty" to watch the news but recently it has been so dire, I just avoid it now.

And you are right, it has been so uplifting to share with Chris and Tash the arrival of Noah.

Life can be wonderful, it's not ALL doom and gloom!

Tobes: loved your post about Noah and the car - that, or something very similar will certainly happen!

C xx

B's Mum - I agree.... 'e certainly looks like a baby!!!!!!

Giddykippa - what a beautiful quotation!! Our Christophe has definitely succeeded then.

Snowcathyt - never mind being Godmother, just join the rest of us as cyber aunties and uncles!!

T xxx

Lyndyloo - is there really a song called How Cute Can You Be?? If so CLP should deffo play it!! Maybe request it for ARF!!

T x

Giddy Kippa #71: thank you for sharing what Mr Emerson had to say - just brilliant. It's so true, we all contribute something to this life, we are all here for different reasons.

Blog no.2 - Never though I would want to blog and now I don't want to stop.

Noah has joined this great big family who are all watching out for him and wishing him the best.

He is a most gorgeous baby. I know I am not alone in wanting a cuddle with him - but then all babies make me feel that way - my baby is 13 and only wants one on her terms.

Big love to the family.

Oh he is so gorgeous - just look at that expression!! He is going to give you such a run around and you will love every minute of it.

The swaddling is definately the way to have a contented baby but Dad's seem to be much better than Mum's at it - they can wrap them up so much tighter.

What a great atmosphere on the show last night and looking forward to tonight's which I'm sure will be just the same.

Slaphead - whats this ebay story - do let on!

love

Md xx

Slaphead - my girl only 13 but if she was older - he looks a nice lad!

Clivesgirl, glad you like blogging......

Who needs to do work that's what I think at moment - too happy

Ahh he's beautiful.. I am pregnant and due in May so I am cooing away as I type as he is so lovely looking.
Congratulations to you both xx

Thank you for sharing so much of this with us . . . .I was hoping for another sneaky pic today, and there it is! He is beautiful! Congratulations!!!

Chris & Natasha
Such a wonderful photo. He looks so contented. He looks as if he will have Brown eyes. Great show last night. Baby, Baby, several tears shed. Glad my other half wasn't here. He cannot believe how anybody can cry over Lark Rise to Candelford, like I do.
My son was a baby who hardly ever cried. The girls were much noiser.
Lovely to see so many new bloggers, welcome.
Mel xx

Noah is a beautiful babbi (as we say in the Midlands).

You are all truly blessed. May all your problems be little 'uns xx

Well done also on not giving him a stupid name like lots of celebrities do, Noah is a fine name :-)

What a great photo you just want to cuddle him just a shame he has not got your hair colouring from a proud ginger mum xxx

Oooooo Noah is gorgeous and what a cheeky little monkey look he is giving the camera, so knowing and yet so young, enjoy it all and thanks for sharing it with us, best wishes 2 Evans3!!

Hi all 3,

Just wanted to add my huge congratulations to all of you, plus all the happiness in the world of course.

I too have an aquarian zen boy child, although he is 25 now, his innate wisdom, inner peace and wisdom hasn't abandoned him since the day he was born and he has amazed me every single one of those days.

Before you think this is going to deteriorate into a mothers tale of embarassing adolation, please know that in those 25 years we have had our ups and downs, some more serious than others but there remains a very settled and wise quality about him that the nurses commented about on the day he was born.

I count myself as very, very lucky and hope that you both experience as much love and happiness from your son as mine has brought me.

Love and Peace xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

#20 Lovenhope...loving your 'old man' comment! I mentioned to my friend yesterday that Noah is the first baby I have ever seen that didn't look like Winston Churchill!

Anyhoo, it would appear that the reason I couldn't open this earlier is because the pic was too hooge...maybe that's just a reflection of the size of the space he has in your heart Christophe!

We celebrated with you with kebabs and beer...one of the old Evans traditions I seem to remember...I hope you don't mind, but needs must 'n' all that!

ps talk about a roller coaster. At very short notice we have to move the Sett. Just another thing that was going on yesterday. Within fourteen days. I'm having a look at somewhere else tonight, and I think we'll take it. Even if it's a rat-infested fleapit with mould on the walls. The Badger should fit right in...heh heh heh!

thank (h)evans for lovely news

Chrissie: strange isn't it? That we watch the news almost out of habit. Think I'll avoid it tonight.

#90: My LM was born with dark hair that went blonde and has now gone dark again. And his blue eyes turned hazel within a year! Truly amazing.

x x x

Tinsel & Chrissie - my pleasure to share :)

I thought it was fitting for today/yesterday.

Kippa

Congrats to you both! He's gorgeous - love the pics!

Oh Hazel, poor you! Good luck with the move, hope your new Sett far exceeds your expectations and is really lovely!

Argh Mr Evans,
Just read yesterdays blog and saw that little Noah had the cord round him a couple of times, our little man had that as well when he popped out last year.......... the little toe-rag!!
Anyway, make sure you stay on that high as long as you can, the sleepless nights in the coming months soon take it away!!
CONTRATULATIONS.......................
Pete, The Wife & The Boy! x

Yet another newbie. Congratulations Chris and Tash on the birth of your beautiful boy Noah. Thanks for sharing your special time and pictures with us.

You really are an amazing man,
Chris.

Thanks Tins!!!

#90...I was born with jet black hair, which went white blonde...now is a little bit darker blonde...well is akshully bleached white...but you get what I mean...my eyes also went from blue to hazel and are now green...
