And this is the Ireland we want to go home to?

And they announced the birth last week too, just to be sure we all noticed. Actually I think they left out Chaos last week, which is kind of apt. You didn’t include the fact that all six were born at home. I’ve also just noticed that poor old Bamford’s initals are BUT. All he needs now is to take Tarrantino for his Confirmation name
This is precisely the reason priests in the old days would change babies’ names at their christenings.

Actually, BroLo, the priest did that at my Mum’s baptism – resulting in her and her older sister having the SAME FIRST NAME! So they’ve been called by their middle names all their lives.
He claimed ‘Johannah’ wasn’t a saint’s name, but ‘Hannah’ was – I reckon he couldn’t spell it. Or he was a bit deaf.

Excellent. That’s set me up for the day.
I bet Sarah and Isaac feel really left out having normal-type names …
Chaos!! *Awe*
(A girl at my breastfeeding support group is calling her little girl Tequila)
Surely Chaos is their family name?
Nickname: Bam Bam.

Tequila. Superb. The rest of you just can’t match that. Arguably better than chaos and Bam Bam.
