Thumper Meets World

In this post I promised more. How's this for more?

Thumper – this is the world. World – this is Thumper.

Please excuse the poor picture quality. This was the best I could do with a small 300 dpi black and white image on thermal paper.

If you look real close at the black circle in the middle you can make out a head, the torso and an arm. Thumper is 21 mm long (or is that tall?) and 9 week old! (Yeah, I know it’s a bit early, but I suck at keeping secrets!)

I’m gonna be a daddy!!!!!!! Which obviously implies that GF is gonna be a mommy!! Mere words cannot begin to express our happiness.

The secret is revealed! And I am so, utterly, unbelievably happy for the two of you and can't think of two people that I think will be better parents.

"Living viacriously" is about to become my thing. :)

Congratulations!!! That is so totally awesome!

Of course that means you need to get the tail in gear fixing up that house. You need to get as much work out of GF as you can before her balance point shifts.

LOL Jim - I've already restricted here from doing any heavy lifting or anything involving chemicals.

We must have known something because we finished all the rooms upstairs (except the bathroom which s a work in progress) and in doing so finished a bedroom we had no intentions of using yet. Now - it'll make a great nursery!

Big congrats. At some stage you'll need to have a read of this.
