Sincere congratulations Mark ;)

Welcome to the world of pink things and Barbie dolls. ;D

And Princesses... mustn’t forget princesses... Cinderella, Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), Bell (Beauty and the Beast), Ariel (The Little Mermaid), Jasmin (Aladdin), Pocahontas, Mulan... I know them all (and spent a few salaries buying the merchandise)

Quite right, I'd forgotten about the princesses (my five-year old princess wouldn't forgive me) and a I'd also forgotten about My Little Pony, Ballet lessons, Rainbows, Year 1 outings, an Imelda Marcos collection of pink swimwear....and face-painting. Mark & Alison don't know what they've let themselves in for, do they?

Maybe Mark will one day understand why last week I bought a cheap back box rather than a Blue Flame for my Omega. ;D ;D

No name yet.....my sudgestion of 'Monaro' was met with scowls and a little muttering.

Mother and baby well and thanks to all for the kind words, I can now at last go into the loft and clear out all of the BOY baby clothes which I was forced to keep, think an ebay session is required!

Its interesting how anti men the ward staff are though......last night, although late(ish), I was not even allowed to step foot on the ward not even to leave the overnight bag for 'er indoors' and was told that visiting starts at 10.00am this morning and not before...!

Hopefuly should be home today.......

Congratulations mate - all I can say is that a second one is not as bad as the first one - you've already got used to the idea that your life is no longer your own.   :)

Can't wait for Mark's "How To" guide to nappy changing.

I'm sure it will include:

Service intervals
Pressure settings (for the fasteners)
Ride height (initial setting - obviously reduces with filling)
Recommended spares (wet ones, nappy bins, etc)

 ;)
