    Default Baby delivery status

    The baby is still in transit. Nothing is happening yet. Just thought I'd keep you informed.

    Btw, yesterday I was shaving while my daughter was in bath.
    We have this ritual where I lather up, and then give her the brush so that she can lather up as well while I am shaving.

    Yesterday we were both lathered up, and while I was stropping she said 'daddy, look! I am shaving too!'. She was using a plastic toy spoon to scrape the lather of her cheeks, holding it like I hold my razor, with the handle pointing up
    She was beaming with pride, as was I.

    Now THAT's my girl
    Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.

    Great story, Bruno!

    I'm sure you don't need this advice, but keep those razors under LOCK AND KEY!!! If she's imitating Daddy with a plastic spoon...well.... keep those razors well guarded....please...

    (...do it for Uncle scarface!...)

    -if I were you, I'd go boil some water....and just keep it coming.

    -whatever

    Your concern is appreciated. It is something that I started to worry about as soon as she could stand up and walk.

    My razors are in a locked box that my mother made for this purpose. It has room for 7 razors, each in their own compartment.
    When I shave, I leave the razor on top of that box on the top shelf to dry out.
    In the morning I put it back in the box.

    All my restoration projects are on the mantlepiece of the hearth, which is 2 meters high.
    On top of that, I tell her every time she sees me with a razor that it is very sharp and that she is not allowed to touch it.

    Domino's delivers in about a half hour.

    a nice ride over lots of railroad tracks helps to speed things along... so does a trampoline. "bouncy-bouncy"
    Be just and fear not.

    Hey Bruno, hang in there! The sense of anticipation must be seriously kicking in now!

    When we had our first, the ante-natal classes gave us other tips on how to bring contractions on naturally. But the only two I can remember now are the ones that really struck a chord with me: eating a hot curry (or spicy food in general) and having sex.

    You know, you could set yourself up with a great night: film, curry, sex. And you could tell your wife it's all for her own good.

    I suggested it already, but I got the 'Evil Eye' for that.
    The previous pregnancy was OK, but this one ...

    As a former colleague put it: 'A pregnant wife is not the woman you married'
    Which sums it up rather nice.

    Keep going Bruno...

    Waiting to hear the results, and too bad the wife isn't up for the great night majurey planned for you lol.
    Dammit I want kids, it makes me miss working at the Y as a summer cousellor and reminds me to visit my little cousins more often especially this summer.

    Bruno, I am so deep in your corner. Do you need a towel champ? Any water? Rub down the shoulders?

    I hope to hear great news very soon. Best wishes to all of you.

    No contractions yet, but the baby is reportedly very active atm, and has been for longer than normal. I think I'll skip my malt whisky today, just in case I need to driver to the hospital tonight.
