WOYWW 216

Congratulations and great celebrations on the birth of the new royal prince. We have our own new arrival – our first great-nephew, Harry Joseph, born an hour after Baby Cambridge, a very big baby indeed at 9 lb 6 oz! He didn’t mess about either, but decided to make an appearance a full hour before the midwife, being delivered by his own dad on the sitting room carpet!

Not much change on my new ARTHaven since last week – a second coat of sealant on the work surface, and I have finished painting the shabby chic shelving unit which is now ready to put up. The room is nearly finished now – a large shelf still to go up on the wall where my free-standing storage will be, and the electrics to connect up, and some lighting.

Lots of other work going on in the rest of the house – please see my other blog posts to keep up with the progress.

I am typing this just before midnight on Tues. evening as I am hoping to go over to the new house early tomorrow morning – Paul is picking up the bath from our garage and taking it over, and if there’s room in his van I will go with him, or my hubby says he’ll take me. I may amend this later if there’s more to report.

Meantime, happy WOYWW everybody. I probably won’t get a number from Julia until later on Wednesday unless she posts before I go out, but hopefully someone will pop in before then!

Babies, Royal and Family

We cracked the last bottle of my elderflower champagne tonight, to celebrate the arrival of the as-yet un-named royal baby (my bet is on George!) – how exciting and wonderful it all is, and how thrilled the whole family must be, especially the Queen, not to mention William and Kate.

We also drank the bubbles to celebrate the arrival of a new family member for us – our first great-nephew, Harry Joseph, who made his appearance in far more of a hurry than Baby Cambridge, not waiting for the midwife but being delivered by his doctor father on the sitting room carpet!!! He weighed in at 9 lb 6 oz!! What a whopper. He was born just an hour after Baby Cambridge, so will qualify for one of the special silver pennies being given to babies being born on the same day.

Here is Harry Joseph. Fast asleep!

Brother to Jessica Chloe, now 3 years old, the only girl in my hubby’s all-male clan (apart from his sister who died many years ago). Boys run in practically epidemic proportions in that family.

Many congratulations to everyone who has had a new baby on the same day as Baby Cambridge.
