- Eating Italian food and toasting my Dad.
- Frantically organising everything for Baby J’s Naming Ceremony.
- Getting up very early to defrost all the party food.
- Getting glammed up with my sister.
- Panicking about my winged eye-liner, removing most of it and doing it again.
- Paying homage to all my vintage heroines and loving my Jonathan Aston seamed hold-ups.
- Wearing Chanel lippy in ‘Fatale’ and ‘Gondola’ nail polish.
- Walking to the registry office in the wind and rain.
- Getting a tiny bit stressed when two of the Godparents hadn’t arrived. It turned out they thought the ceremony was at 11.30 instead of 11. Mr. LA ran half-way across town to get them.
- Beaming with pride as my daughter sang two nursery rhymes all by herself to the 40 guests that attended the ceremony.
- Dishing up all the food and pouring copious amounts of wine and beer.
- Making speeches and cutting cake.
- Loving seeing all my friends and family and being completely bowled over by the originality and generosity of their gifts for Jesse. (Someone gave him a tree… how cool is that?)
- Clearing up and recovering.
- Taking five minutes to notice that Baby J had figured out how to sit up all by himself!
- Watching my boyfriend build a highchair.
- Eating Chinese food and snuggling with my boyfriend.
- Feeling far too tired to post this and resolving to do it first thing Monday morning!
