  • The well has run dry

    Unfortunately, breast feeding just isn’t going well. Luke hasn’t been gaining weight fast enough and some weeks he even lost weight. It got to the point where we were referred to a specialist who effectively said he’s malnourished and if it weren’t for the fact that he’s well hydrated she would have admitted him into…

  • I’m sure to win parent of the year

    So today I locked Luther in the car; and I don’t mean for his protection. I mean, I’m outside of the locked car staring at my baby and my keys. The long and the short of it is that I dropped the keys while closing the rear door and it locked. Needless to say I…

  • We lost the house… (de ja vu)

    We just couldn’t agree on a price for the works needed. Oh well… We’re still selling this place, however, and we’ll be moving out in mid-November (and in with the in-laws). Not sure where we’ll go from here, but everything happens for a reason!! (I need to keep saying this as my mantra.) —————— In…

  • A question from one of our viewers

    A question from one of our viewers

    Meghan from Ohio asks: Excellent question Meghan! —————————— Lisa Answers: Why on earth do you call someone named William, “Bill” or why is “Jack” short for “John”? Mysteries abound when it comes to names and this one is no different. My grandfather’s name was Luther and everyone called him Luke. I don’t know why that’s…

  • Photos for you!

  • Boogers, a passport AND mail? Pinocchio would be so proud!

    So it’s official; he’s a real live person. Not only does he have boogers, he got his very first piece of post on the 13th. How exciting!!  He also has a British Passport.  (We now need to figure out about the USA thing … which is, of course, going to be complicated and expensive.)  

  • Pictures and a story

    For all you baby fans out there, photos: While in the operating theatre, Andrew and I got to pick our own music and we took along a CD by a very talented guitarist Andy McKee. I feel it’s my duty and obligation to share it with you! So you can listen to this and know…

  • What? Not AGAIN!

    So last night Andrew and I opted to give Luther his first real bath.  (Although, as he still has his umbilical cord it was a sponge bath only.)  I don’t know that I’ve ever laughed so hard and I’m pretty sure I burst a few stitches. It started as just a normal diaper change but…

  • We’re parents!

    At 9:42am this morning, my stonkingly gorgeous wife gave birth to our first child! Luther Jacob Collington came in to the world at 7lbs 1.5oz and measuring around 19 inches. Mum and baby are doing well (dad’s not bad, either) and will be in hospital for a number of days to recover. As our day…
