Les Fraises!



Best christmass present…. EVER.

Sophie and myself are expecting a little babog! :)

Sophie is about four months gone now. We had to keep it under wraps for the first three months (standard practice apparently) but just before christmass we had the first scan and it was cool — you could see him/her moving his tiny (and I mean tiny) head and hands!

We have the next big scan in Feburary so you can expect more pictures.

Oh, we’ve nicknamed him/her “Strawberry” rather then having to call it, It. I wanted to call it “Squirt” but Sophie really doesn’t like that one! :)

Sophie’s done up a webpage for Strawberry which you can find here.

Of course this completely messes up our lives. No more late night movie marathons or not bothering to clean the dishes for two weeks and then theres the money thing…

Do you know that creches cost upwards of 800 euros a month? Thats about the same as our mortage! Then theres the constant supply of nappies, doctor and hopsital fees, baby stuff (most we’re borrowing from others but there is still stuff we need to buy)… the list only gets longer the older they get!

Anyway, I’m dead excited about the whole thing! :)
