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.

18 month year old Mores

Still no name. Here are two little 18 month year old boys , asking for more more more.

Record (T)

Sweet as Sebastian looks in these photos, we couldn't keep this lovely jumper from Aunty Megan, because it really is a little too sweet for our little pocket dynamo. So like the awful judge in blood meridian, we here record in our journal and destroy the original.

(OK, OK, we gave it to a girl)

Mum & Eddie (T)

Here's anita, days before the new baby was born. Lacking something in generosity, Eddie's first comment when he saw anita after the baby was born was "mum, why is your tummy still big?"



It isn't now, of course, but we are in a guileless phase. Perhaps not for long, he looked guilty when I found him in the kitchen this morning, not saying 'good morning'; his smile returned when he showed me the freddo frog concealed behind his back. Where did you get that? I asked. From the wrapper, he replied literally, opening the rubbish bin to show me.

Baby (T)

Well, we still don't know his NAME, but we do know that adding 1 newborn to 2 other youngsters doesn't make a lot of difference to our days & lives. If Anita does ask you what you think of name X, please politely decline to answer, as we otherwise may never get there.

3 boys...
