I am very pleased to be able to welcome Eleanor Beatrice into our family! My cousin, Anna, gave birth late last night to a healthy baby girl weighing about 6lb.

I’m as pleased as punch :)

10 years ago today, Georgina and I got married! It’s hard to believe that 10 years have gone by already and they have been great! Our relationship now is better than when we started and I’m looking forward to our next 10 years together.

Yesterday, Jon completed his first year at school. I can’t get over how much he has grown up over this time.

When he first started, he was quite shy and very nervous about going into School in the morning. The teachers have been excellent and now he is much more confident in all aspects. His reading and writing have come along very well along with his numeracy. I’m very pleased so far.

Now of course we have six weeks of him kicking around the house…
