A bump for Down Under


As the Oz contingent seem to be missing out on seeing Diddy getting bigger I thought I'd better post a nice pic for them...

Pizza & chocolate may be fav food so far but this pic is 100% pure Diddy! :-)

(P.S. the background is our new wall colour - no more yellow wallpaper!)

Winkle, Winkle, Little Star

21 weeks, 5 days and Diddy has now has a sex! :-)



Most importantly everything on the scan looks as it should and no cause for concern.
Oh, and by the way it's a boy!! ;-)

Diddy had lots of fun in the scan and was a right jiffle bum, thanks to several fruit pastilles that Marie popped to make sure he didn't have his legs crossed all through the scan. As you can see from the picture that he has got a little bigger and everything is more detailed.

The scan picture reminds me of the film poster for 2010 - 2007 is the year we make contact though!

This scan was awesome - unfortunately the picture doesn't give away the detail we could see.
Fingers, ribs and his spine - we even saw the 4 valves of his heart!

As you can guess, Marie has already gone and bought some clothes and Tesco will have a good week profit wise.

Just got to convince Marie that Diddy needs a PS3 now!

Can I Kick It?

Diddy has finally decided that he has an opinion about the world and has started letting Marie know. Jiffling about has now turned into the odd hoof and Diddy currently has a top 3:
  1. Pizza - just like his Dad, Pizza has a big reaction
  2. Chocolate - hard to say but I think this one comes from Marie more than me
  3. Baths - the temperature that Marie has them at I'm assuming he is trying to get out! ;-)
I saw my first 'wibble' the other night and I'm now on Pelé watch at bath time as that appears to be the most consistent time for 5-A-Side.

I must admit that I'm getting a tiny bit jealous that Marie can feel Diddy but she is looking lovely with a bump and not too long till the scan - these things help me get over it. Oh and Gü chocolate brownies seem to be helping as well! :-)

He or She?

Marie and I have decided that until we know the sex officially we are going to refer to Diddy as 'he'.
We were both naturally saying he all the time & didn't want to refer to Diddy as 'it'.

It makes life a little easier - just don't assume that we know the sex if I say he from now on! :-)
