Another health visitor has just left; Rosabel now weighs 8 lbs, 4 ! That’s a whole pound in a couple of weeks!! Then again, she’s certainly not the only Walton to gain 14% body weight over the 12 days of Christmas – oh, sorry, did I say 12? I beg your pardon, bishops, I clearly meant – what did they pick out for this year? Oh yes – 8.

Another Weighty Walton (tautological, perhaps, but worth emphasising nevertheless).
Rosabel was supposed to lose a bit of weight – apparently it’s some sort of polite custom for full-termingtons – but, no doubt due to her recusant inheritance, she has, so far, subverted this established, enlighteniment principle at every opportunity, preferring instead to gain several ounces for the occasion of each weigh-in… the midwives squint suspiciously at a rather empty-looking metre-long box of Jaffa Cakes leaning against the piano… This morning Rosabel was a very generous 7lb 10. By my reckoning, bearing in mind inflation & global warming, this means Rosabel will have overtaken Violet in weight by June 14th 2011, just in time for elevenses.

Rosabel Mary Ethel Walton was born at 05:41 am, Sunday 19th December 2010, weighing 7lbs,4ish (3.3kg). She was one week early, which is novel.
Mother and baby are very well, it was a lovely birth (not too painful for me, any way). Daddy needs
decent coffee; the RLI cafeteria doesn’t serve
Atkinson’s – I’ll put a note in the suggestion box.
Rosabel is very beautiful. She has black hair like many Walton babies, and big feet like her mother! She came out all squashed and stretched (from suction (which is an amazing thing (more like a bath-plug than a toilet-plunger))) but has quickly re-morphed into little baby-girl shape.
Deo Gratias!

Being the birth & death day of old Bill,
I shallst relate in pentametric verse:
Violet and Ivy were weighed on Tuesday:
Eleven pounds and eight the latter was,
the former nine and seven, catching up.
But they’re not the only ones getting big.
Their parents have of late been growing too,
indulging in a stream of cho co late;
(‘if chocolate be the food of love, eat on’)paddling in a flowing river of cake;swimming in a resevoir of biscuit;diving the depths of an ocean of cheese;cruising the seas of awful metaphor.and so on and so forth et-cetera.
Please forgive th’unsubtle lack of rhyme,
I would have tried but for a lack of t…

Happy Easter everybody!
Ivy and Violet went to meet their beautiful new baby Auntie yesterday.
Eva Pascale Kennedy was born in the early hours of Maundy Thursday. At a hefty 7 pounds and 5, she looked surprisingly tiny next to her ever growing nieces but I have a feeling she’ll catch up in no time. Congratulations Nana, Granddad, Rosemary, Jonah, Rory, Phelim and Gabriel: another beautiful girl in a beautiful family.
Enjoy the 50 days of Easter Feasting,
Lots of love,
Ivy, Violet, Ailsa & James
