Meet the Glasgow babies who are celebrating their first Christmas

We asked you to provide pictures of your adorable tots who will feature in today's Glasgow Times  print edition in our special souvenir pages. 

Editor Stacey Mullen said: "The response was overwhelming so much so we had to close the entries for tots to feature in our special story. 

"I hope our readers who didn't make the newspaper aren't too disappointed and I wish you all a merry Christmas and happy new year."

Freddie Brown came in time for the bells last year born on December 31 at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital. Parents Lynsey-Anne Mackenzie and Tom Brown will be preparing for the Ayrshire tot's first Christmas and birthday a few days later. 

Baby Brody got in the festive mood by donning his Santa suit for Christmas. His proud mum Natalie Philips sent in this picture of the adorable three-month-old who was born on September 16 this year. 

Proud Lee-Ann Dougall sent in a picture of five-month-old Aoife Lee-Ann Kerr. The Maryhill tot was born one week early at the Princess Royal Maternity Hospital on July 11. 

Baby Jack Finnegan has his sleigh ready to celebrate his first Christmas. Nicola Sharp shared this cute snap of the eight-month-old from Carntyne. He was born on April 16 weighing 7lbs, 14oz at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary.

Baby Sam Thomson made his way into the world just a few months ago on September 16 just in time for the festive season. His proud aunt Marissa MacWhirter submitted this picture of the tot who was born in the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.

Baby Calvin John James Cairns will celebrate his first proper Christmas after spending last year in hospital. Now one-years-old, he was born five weeks early on December 2, 2023. The tot, who has Down's syndrome, had a hole in heart and spent most of his little life in hospital.  He finally returned home in August and is ready to celebrate his first Christmas.

Merry Christmas to Cali Dawn Campbell who came into the world on September 8. The Maryhill youngster was born in Glasgow's Princess Royal.

Pollok tot Macie Turner was born on September 12 at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital and delivered by 'lovely doctors'. Shannon Murray said the medical staff including the midwives were all incredible and the care given was second to none! We are pretty sure those NHS staff are on Santa's nice list with Macie. 

Arabella Albert has been getting in the Christmas spirit by dressing like an elf. The Glasgow tot was born over two months ago at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital maternity unit. 

Ayden David McGregor is just two months old. Born in the Glasgow Queen Elizabeth University Hospital on October 16, the tot is Thornliebank's own 'Buddy the Elf' preparing to celebrate his first Christmas. 

Cade Alfie Cunningham was born in Wishaw University Hospital on June 6 and is turning six months old. The night the tot was born Scotland were playing Georgia - and dad still got to watch the footie after torrential rain delayed the match. 

Dennistoun tot Levi McCausland Docherty was born 10 months ago in the Princess Royal Maternity Hospital. 

Santa's little helper Olivia Lily Hunter was born just five months ago weighing 5lbs and 6oz. Born in the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley on July 18 at 7.43am. Keira McKee and mum Lesley Hunter have never been happier with this little bundle of joy.
