Christening

So I have been berated from left, right and center for not updating the blog more often. Somewhat daunting as I did not think anyone was really reading this, after looking back it has been nearly a month since the last post, so I guess I had better try post more regularly.

Sunday we had Christoper christened. Belinda and Sean were asked to be god parents, and while Belinda will be a spiritual guide for Christopher, I think Sean will be more of a guide to spirits, particularly the single malts.

During the christening the deacon blessed Jenny and then he blessed me, as soon as he started blessing me, Christopher started crying. Well, crying is an understatement, it was a full blooded wail. Was he trying to tell me something?

Otherwise, Christopher was very well behaved and only had a brief little cry when he had water ceremoniously dumped on his head.

Afterwards we had a couple of drinks (ok, more than a couple) and snacks at Kate's to celebrate. All told a fairly good way to spend a Sunday, even taking into account that I had to go to church!

I will try to be more diligent in posting some new pictures in the days to come.
