Month 7 (12/11/04-11/12/04)

I was weighed on November 12th and am 19lbs 7oz now. What a cheeky monster, I am!



I have been doing a lot of skydiving lately.



It's great fun but a little tiring!



Very tiring, in fact!



My friend Luke paid a visit.



Here's a picture of Luke thinking. I am trying to help him by scratching his head.



I'm not sure he liked that.



Brrrr... it's getting really cold now.



Alan and June visited one weekend. I hadn't met Alan before but he seems good fun.



Here I am with him once more, in my Tigger outfit that Mummy and Daddy bought me in France.



It's less than 2 months to Christmas so I've been busy making my Christmas cards... I'm getting very excited!





It's also getting a little cold so I have to wrap up warm whenever I go out.



I went to Yorkshire with Mummy for a few days. Unbeknown to us, Daddy has been busy decorating my bedroom. Bob the Builder is one of my faves!!

Week 26 (5/11/04-11/11/04)

I was baptised on Sunday! Here I am with Mummy and Daddy before the christening service.



And here is me and Mummy in church. This is where Mummy and Daddy got married long before I was born.



At the end of the service, I went out with Father Robert. He's the one that married Mummy and Daddy all that time ago.



Afterwards, we went to the pub. I was given Cumberland rum butter... it's a tradition for babies born in Cumbria! It was very good but I could have done with a half of Fosters to wash it down.



On the way back from the pub, we bumped into Father Robert again, and he made a fuss of me.



Then it was back to Granny and Grandad's for lunch before Mummy and I headed down to Yorkshire.



Here are my godparents - from left to right, Uncle Mark, Auntie Jaymie, Uncle Paddy and Uncle Charles. What a motley crew!



Grandma gave me lots of cuddles.



I like the look of that bread sauce... Daddy tells me it's good!



Granny and Grandad made a fuss, too.



And so did Auntie Joan.



And there was time for a picture with cousin Isaac before we travelled down for Grandpa Ken's memorial service.

Week 25 (29/10/04-4/11/04)

Grandma, Uncle Paddy, Mummy and I went to the duck pond at Grange-over-Sands this week.



Gosh, those ducks make a funny quack noise!



I am really enjoying my food these days.



Mummy bought me a book. Apparently, it is "significant" to me, but I don't understand that word.
