2009 was a good year.

I love my job, I love being up near Bristol, and my wife and son make me happier than anything.

Sitting on my lap, he was fine to start with.

Hair cut time!

But soon became unimpressed.

Not particularly enjoying hair cut time

It was all worth it though. We think the result is pretty adorable.
