X, Good man, I also was wondering how the family was getting along. Glad to hear that you two are enjoying it, and things are going well. Catch up on sleep you two, It will be a tight commodity soon. Please keep us informed as much as possible. Best wishes and prayers for your family.

Awesome X, we're in about the same situation and I still think it's fun....ny anyway. The missus doesn't always agree.

All the best to you and your partner, Alex. I think we must empathise with each other perfectly right now. Love, worry and anticipation, eh?

Lot's of all the above. Although in my wife's case lot's of surprise as well. Two days ago she was suddenly a lot bigger than 3 days ago. I simply went.....well....such it is....but she wouldn't stop talking about it for ages...

She makes me laugh.

First of all my apologies for not being around recently, but it's been busy here. We're at 33 1/3 weeks now and nesting like mad. Our last round of prenatal classes finished just a week ago and we're very pleased with the look of the facilities at the BC Women's Hospital. I remember thinking 20 years ago that hospitals should look at birth this way and I'm glad that now they do. We've been buying baby clothes and all the gear that goes with them including the crib which we've decided to sidecar to the bed for everybody's best rest. The wife's continues to be a textbook pregnancy so I'll actually be surprised if she doesn't go right to term, but any time between 4 and 8 weeks from now for baby's arrival will suit me fine. Baby's got quite the kick incidentally. Sometimes Val practically jumps out of her skin when the little one wakes up. We were playing with the flashlight at her belly last night and she swears she felt the baby's head moving to see the light. Of course, little one loves it when we sing duets to her/him. (Actually, I kinda hope it's a girl because we CANNOT agree on boys' names!)

Thanks to everyone who has been asking. It means a lot. We all remain well and are doing everything to remain so.

Here's a pic of the Validator in her swanky new haircut, rockin' in her new glider with the very much still living cat enjoying what room is left on her favourite lap.

Lol X.. It looks like everything's going just fine Let me just point out the advantages of having a boy -- like being more likely to pass on the Thiers-Issard torch

Glad to hear everything's going well, X!

Where's the time gone ?? Seems like it was just yesterday when you first told us. Glad to hear everything's going well. Not long now and we'll have to call you "Pappa X".

James.

Oh ...X. Val looks absolutely radiant....just glowing!! You must be taking very good care of the Mother to be! Happy to hear that everything is going well.
