He who shall not be named has a name

After much deliberation, we've settled on Nicholas Peter Gill.
All the Nick's we know and all the Peter's we know seem like fine young men, with strong attributes, worthy namesakes.

Tobin adjusting well, so far, to the new addition. I was admiring Tobin, yesterday, as he was lying on the couch beside Nick telling him about our walk and all the things we saw. yeah!

Mum and Dad came up for 10 days to help out and boy did they ever. At one point, Mum was making curtains, cutting Tobin's hair and making chutney all at the same time!!! It's no wonder she was able to raise 4 of us!


In between story telling with Tobin and snuggles with Nick, Dad managed to gather the needed materials, dig over our garden, and create a green house for our garden!

So, needless to say, I was feeling a little nervous to see my parents leave...back to only two hands and two children! So far so good.

Now I know where AMG gets her multi-tasking skills from!

Tobin and Nicholas should be used for beautiful baby adverts.
