Arlo’s Christening Posted on December 3, 2018 By Becky This post is slightly late as I had domain issues with my blog last week and my entire site was out of action for 6 days- total nightmare! I couldn’t not add a few photos documenting Arlo’s christening though. We don’t have many as my main camera is also broken and has been sent off to be fixed (definitely having a tech crisis at the moment), but the ones we do have are lovely (and thanks to my sis-in-law too). We were part of a regular Sunday service at the church where Adam and I got married, and it’s such a relaxed and modern kind of church which is right up our street- we really didn’t want anything stuffy. After making a bid for freedom when us/his godparents were about to ‘commit’, he was very well behaved and a bit of a superstar, dancing to every hymn that was sung and generally pottering around being cute. Arlo has 5 godparents and very lucky he is with this bunch too! We finished off a lovely day with food, drink and cake at a local pub, and it’s nice to know that he’s finally been ‘done’, albeit a bit older than the other two were. When you can bowl up to the vicar yourself, you know your parents have left it a bit late for you to get Christened!

Arlo Arlo at 12 Weeks Posted on September 21, 2017 So Arlo is now 12 weeks old, and we are starting to get more into a day-to-day rhythm.
