Cousin Joseph at the Piano

Joseph playing an exam piece.  Well done, Joseph!

Joseph has a blog of his very own now called mechanicalmovies.blogspot.com which is full of some excellent films he has made.

Cosy

All tucked up in my dressing gown, fast asleep and beautiful, little Rosabel has her first cuddle of the day with Daddy at long last!!! Big sisters are probably having identical dreams about sisha beeby to the syncapated rhythm of their snores, while Mamma rests and bathes after another long day. 

It was lovely to introduce Rosabel to her paternal Grandparents and one of her five aunties this afternoon, we're all delighted to have another precious princess in the family. 

Babybel - a little cheesy perhaps - is Olivia Rose's name for her new cousin. I like it! More on names later...

A Weekend Away

We've had a lovely few days in sunny Stockport with the Walton clan celebrating JJ's First Holy Communion and JAaron's Confirmation (very important and beautiful Sacraments in the life of a Catholic).

The short film above is of Violet and Ivy playing in Grandma & Grandpa's living room. Ivy has taken to pulling her elder sister's hair (it is very lovely and soft) but on this occasion Violet narrowly escaped, as you'll see.

I'm so sorry about the long delay in posting. I'd like to say that I've been too busy working hard but, alas, no. The girls will be ten months old on Sunday; we hope to have some photographs of the last month up by then.

By the way, I hope you've all got tickets for the most anticipated concert of the millenium: A Way With Words featuring the beautiful voice of Nicholas Bennett.

Happy Wednesday one and all.
