In April we decided to go on holiday to St. Ives for Marianne’s birthday. We stayed at the Sloop Inn and our room had a lovely view over the harbour. Each morning we had a full English breakfast in our room sitting at the little table next to the window.

You may wonder why I’m talking about St. Ives on Rory’s page, but it turns out that nine months after we were there, is when our little man was born. It really is a truly wonderful and magical part of the country for us.

RORY ROBERT THOMAS VERNON was born on 31^st December 2006 weighing 9lb 2 1/2oz (4160g) at 6.55am.

We chose Rory as a name together. It is a traditional Celtic name and a name that is not in the top 100 so it’s quite original. Robert is after Bill’s Dad and Thomas is after Marianne’s Dad.

We think he has his Mums eyes and lips and his Dads ears and nose! We have put some baby photos of us on so you can make up your own minds.
