Nephew!!

In what must be my most prolific week of blogging ever, I would like to announce the arrival of my new nephew. He weighed in at a respectable 9 pounds 2 ounces (I know we're all metricated here in Australia but babies should always be measured imperially otherwise no-one knows if it's big or small), and is showing slight signs of forceps intervention. Ain't he sweet? I don't name names (very much) on this here blog but I will tell you that he shares a name with a movie hero in the sci-fi/action genre, so don't be fooled by those bubsy mittens.


Love and congratulations to the proud parents xxx.

  10. Oh, I love chubby babies! He is so sweet.

    But it was a little unkind of his parents to call him The Terminator.

  12. He looks adorable :) I'm all mushy at the sight of any baby these days, but he's pretty good looking!
    I don't do SciFi so no witty name suggestions from me.

  14. Look at that sweetie pie. What a gorgeously shaped head!

    Moulder? Scully? What a shame that would be. I think I'll go with Shula on the Luke. Subliminal Sci-Fi

  15. Mmm - forceps, I know thee well.
    ( Hoping to avoid them this time. )

    As you know, i'm not good in the Sci-Fi/Action genre, so i'll go for .. hmmm .. Sonic the hedgehog ?

    Naturally, they'll call him "Sonic" for short ?
