THESE darling new arrivals are looking forward to their first Christmas at home with their families.
Each of these five Dorset newborns have spent the first weeks of their life either under lockdown or with limited access to wider family and friends for first cuddles.
But they bring hope for 2021 despite the continuing Covid situation they were born in to.
The tiny tots were all born in St Mary's or at home and are now healthy and happy at home.
