Miss Taws said: "It was a very different new year for us - our partying days are over.
"The midwives were all so helpful and we will be leaving the hospital shortly - he is perfect.
"We had to wait a little while until everyone was up to tell them the news."
They also received a gift from the family of the first baby born in 2023 and they will continue this N&N Hospital tradition with 2025's first arrival.
Their family unit is now complete, with Miss Taws adding: "This is our third and final child - definitely no more!"
