Cousin



The little one is nearly 3 weeks old, and still without a name. You get six weeks, and then the UK government insists you make your choice, because you need to register. I don't know what happens if you call their bluff at that point, perhaps they assign a name, for boys, Winston or William.



Six weeks is also the age he can have his first dummy, so you can't give a dummy to a child without a name, in this country.

Last weekend was cousin zach's baptism, he was joined by some adult baptisms and so got the full immersion tub.




Here's us with G&G out the front of Ascension Church, in the sun before the service.

I'm not doing the 'T' thing in the headings any more, it's always me doing the posts, anita's last one was 2 and half years ago, I think.

Why can't babies have a dummy beforehand?

for every Jones in our generation and below in these photos, Ascension has been a very significant place.

Coco just sneaked out of bed for a 'quick, quiet hug', and was delighted to see her wee 'new cousin'! She's very convinced you should call baby 'Sezzy', which she says is spelt C-R-O!!!!

lovely to see pics of Mum and Dad with you!
