HELLO and welcome to eight of Hampshire's newest and cutest residents.
These darling newborns have been welcomed into the world at Southampton's Princess Anne Hospital, Royal Hampshire County Hospital in Winchester or Portsmouth's Queen Alexandra Hospital in recent weeks, oblivious to world affairs.
And as they still can't meet some of their extended families, friends and fans, we're introducing them instead.
