New grandson means that on the eight day he has his circumcision, which although is a ‘surgical procedure’ happens with friends and family.
The ceremony was very early on a Monday morning, so this was a small gathering of family and a few friends. Luckily Westley can be distracted with toys. 
Not bad for 7 am.
Sorry not many pictures, between a camera that isn’t great and an iPad, images are blurry.
Here he is as the ceremony starts, both cousins looking on. Mom moved them back, I remember my sons at that age getting a little too close when their cousin had his bris.
Here is one of those sons, now an uncle. He had the ‘honor’ of holding him, even as the actual bris happened, and was a lot less squeamish than at age 6. Surrounded by love, the baby only cries for less than a minutes, then it’s over and Mommy immediately gets him back. 
What, whats’ happening to my brother? Later Westley gave the Mohel the biggest stink eye! was that because he remembers 19 months ago, or because he doesn’t like someone hurting his new baby?
This is the third grandson Andy has circumcised, we are hoping there will be a few more.
And his Hebrew name, which is given at this point is Jacob.
Mom took him to the back room to nurse and then joined us with him 15 minutes later as we enjoyed a quick breakfast of lox and bagels. No matter what the Jewish ceremony is – it always involves food!
