It looks like young Eric is being inundated with gifts like these adorable cuddly toys.

He was pictured cuddling up to a toy dog with a blue ribbon and a knitted elephant.

Music mogul Simon captioned the pic with ‘Eric’s new friends.’

Clearly enjoying every minute of fatherhood, Simon also tweeted: ‘The last three days have been incredible.’

Eric was born on Valentine’s Day at approx. 5.45pm New York time after Simon dashed over the Atlantic to be by partner Lauren Silverman’s side for the birth.

Simon’s son weighed in at 6lbs 7oz, and he proudly showed off his new addition via his Twitter account over the weekend.

He captioned the pic with ‘I never knew how much love and pride I would feel.’

He also revealed via his Twitter that he had named his newborn son Eric after his late father.

Fans were shocked when it was revealed Simon was expecting a baby with divorced mother-of-one Lauren Silverman last year.

Simon was reportedly ‘incredibly nervous’ about the birth of his son, but it looks like he’s adjusting to fatherhood like a duck to water.
