All this talk of Libby being born into the world on 1 October 2011 made me think that some of you would like a Corey update.
So, here are some recent pictures of our gorgeous little boy, who will be 2 next month.

Libby Charlotte Dorcas Wilks
Rachel and I are absolutely delighted to announce the birth of our daughter, Libby Charlotte Dorcas Wilks, who was born on 1 October 2011 at 9.16am, weighing 6lbs 15oz and measuring 55cm.
I can’t tell you how over the moon I am to have a beautiful daughter to make 2point4 children; one of each gender. If (and I mean *IF*) we do go on to have a third child, I’ll especially be looking forward to having a surprise, and whether our third is a boy or girl, s/he will be a bonus to an already very happy family of four!
My boy
The last time I posted a picture of Corey was in February, so I thought I should post another picture of him, eight months later!
Corey continues to bring a huge amount of pleasure to Rachel and I’s lives and seeing him develop as a human being is truly astonishing to watch. He is certainly a little character and we think he’s going to have a mischievous personality!
*Proud Daddy*
Corey William Robert Wilks
I absolutely delighted to introduce my son, Corey William Robert Wilks.
Corey was born via cesarean section on 19 November 2009 at 1.11am in Nevill Hall Hospital, Abergavenny, weighing 8lbs 5oz.
Rachel and I are over the moon to have such a gorgeous little boy!
Corey is such a clever little fella: he’s actually set up his own website here!
The Big Fight
I am currently being exposed to the fervour of the Valleys that is Joe Calzaghe and his big fight against Bernard Hopkins in Las Vegas, USA.
On the orders of my missus and the in-laws, I have subscribed to Setanta Sports for one month so that they can watch the big fight tonight on Setanta 1 at about 3am in the bloody morning! Yes, the in-laws, and possibly even Kirsty and Sam, are popping over in the middle of the night to watch a boxing match!
I ain’t even that bothered about the match; would rather be in cuckoo land! But, needs must!
For your information, Calzaghe grew up in Pentwynmawr, where the in-laws live, and Joe’s family are quite well known in these parts. In fact, Rachel’s great-grandmother used to live a few doors down from Calzaghe’s family, and used to go “Hello Joe!” occasionally when he walked past as a child on his bicycle or whatever, to which Calzaghe would reply “Hello Mrs Davies!”.
Hence the local obsession!
