The Bean
The Pregnancy
(May 2005 to Jan 2006)
The Bean
was conceived in May 2005 and was due to pop out on February 18th 2006. Here
is his own story...
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Is
that happiness... or nausea?
|
What
a bean looks like at 6 weeks!
|
That's
a teeny beany heart, apparently
|
At
12 weeks, it's our own leggy bean

Osian's Naming
Day - 9th April 2006
A
Naming Ceremony is one of the oldest customs and rituals in human history -
it creates an opportunity to welcome the child to the clan, family and community
in which he will live. A bit like a Christening, for infidels.
