They say good things come in small packages and that was certainly the case for the Ayrshire bundles of joy who arrived into the world in September.
Midwives at Ayrshire Maternity Unit were as busy as ever delivering newborns safely into the arms of their parents - and photographer John Keachie was there to capture those precious first moments.
Springside couple Jillian Crawford and Richard Wedlock got the month off to the perfect start on September 2 with the birth of their gorgeous daughter Emma Anna who tipped the scales at an incredibly cute 3lb 14oz - the equivalent of just less than two bags of sugar.
Stephanie and Gurwinder Singh of Irvine were equally delighted to welcome a baby girl into their lives on Thursday, September 26. Their little one, who had still to be named when the happy family snap below was taken, weighed in at 6lb 11oz.
Irvine's Scott Lawrie was one proud father too as he gave daughter Ava a loving cuddle after she was born on Friday, September 27, weighing 6lbs 9oz.
