A visit from the new arrival...

Jo and Paul had to take Connor to the doctor yesterday and stopped in to visit afterwards. Jake was in his element and was just so excited about seeing his cousin again. They'd planned to stop in, bath and feed Connor, have dinner and then go home early enough to get Connor to bed by 7, but opted for taking dinner home instead. They're working really hard at their routine and it seems to be going well so far.

Anyway, here are the rest of the photos (I know you're all more interested in the baby, then you are me)...

I swear to you that my child's hands are clean. He washed them and everything. In truth, they're stained. He got hold of some unripe walnuts at a friends house, dissected them and now has 'dirty' hands. He spent Tuesday night with my mother-in-law and she even tried, to no avail, to bleach his hands clean...This time, I managed to get Jake to give Connor a kiss. I first had to make sure that nobody was looking and then it was OK to go. But only 1 kiss...All embarrassed...Cheeky brat...My dad with his two boys. Talk about proud...Hee-ha - there are finally more boys in the family then girls!!Auntie Rose with the boys...Bath time. Look how tiny he is...

Jake making sure Connor's OK. He's so chuffed to have someone else in the family who looks like him down below. We used to bath Jake in a blue basin like this when he was little too, worked so well and he loved kicking his legs and splashing the water in it. I cannot believe he ever fitted into something that tiny! I have hundreds of photos of Jake taken in front of the mirror like this too...A beautiful, happy baby...Mom and dad getting some cuddles...

Hope you all have a stunning Easter weekend with your nearest and dearest. I hope the bunny doesn't forget to stop at your house. I can't wait for our egg hunt on Sunday morning, Jake's so excited!!

Lots of love, Sue XXX

Hope you had a great Easter babe xx

I am commenting on many posts here as I am having a torrid time keeping up with everyones news. First of all Connor is too beautiful, but I just love the ones where you have captured him with Jake, you can see he is besotted with his baby cousin. All Jakes Easter eggs look so colourful and he looks like he has a choc overload. Please give my best wishes to Paul and Joanne, they must be having a tough time of it. Love Fiona xxx
