And so it begins...
[There will be a photo here, when I've worked out how]
As my brother (in Switzerland) has recently entered the land of blog in advance of the birth of his daughter, I thought we should do likewise in advance of the birth of our daughter/son, this coming Wednesday.
The reason for the specificity of the last piece of information is that for this particular pregnancy we will be using the method of extraction favoured by Julius Caesar's mother. Not through choice, mind you, but due to various antenatal complications suffered by my longsuffering spouse. The details are not really necessary here, but suffice it to say that she has visited the hospital at an ever increasing rate/week for the past few months, and has had more blood siphoned off in total than most of us are walking around with...
But I digress.
(Get used to it!)
For those who may accidentally stumble on this site, please see our profile to get up to speed on the who/what/when/why of us (but not too soon, as I haven't written it yet).
For those who know us, the 'news' is as follows:
- Libby is going into hospital on Wednesday to have the latest of our offspring removed from its current resting place
- Joshua has chicken pox (or "pickin' pox" as Bethany much more logically refers to it)
- Bethany does not have pickin' pox, and searches frequently and earnestly for "marks", so she too can join the club
- We are having a lazy Sunday, enjoying the peace of being able to have an afternoon nap (Libby, Joshua, Bethany) and being able to finish 'The Green Mile" mid-afternoon (Daniel).
- As Joshua is contagious we did Church at home this morning, which was fairly entertaining. Those purists among you will be glad to know that we didn't sing Joshua's choices of "Jingle Bells" and "Grease Lightning"!
Hopefully, when I have got to grips with the technology, this blog will be all singing, all dancing. To that end, I will now go and read the neverending FAQs/helps/hints that abound in this corner of cyberspace.
More anon...
