And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for…
Thursday, 4th January 2007 by tomAllow me to take you back to Wednesday 15 November, when the white plastic gadget showed a little blue cross instead of a little blue line.

Well of course we immediately grabbed the camera to record the momentous occasion.

And got a shot of Julie’s waist for later comparison.

Yes, finally, years after you all stopped asking, Julie is in the family way. And after taking all this time to make up our minds – we’re excited. In fact I’m so moved, I’ve taken to writing fridge poetry:

We had our first scan today, which was a slightly weepy moment (not that we let the hospital staff see the watery look in our eyes). And so here it is, our first baby photo (click for a bigger version):

The due date is 15 July 2007. Further profile pictures of Julie to follow if I can get her to play ball

Woohoo! Congratulations.
Just one question… where are you going to put him/her? Between the boxes that have just come out of storage and the new workstations… forget the new kitchen, you’re going to need a mezzanine level.
