Here’s your next dose of Peanut - in case you had been hanging out for it.
We had.

That’s my baby’s face! How cute! Isn’t it gorgeous?

And here’s Peanut from the front. Fortunately we didn’t have to censor the “area” - and don’t ask… It’s a surprise!

Peanut looks completely healthy, and everything is the right size for 20 weeks. We’re so happy - it is a tremendous experience seeing your baby’s face before it’s born. And its brain. That’s weird. And the little heart had four chambers pumping blood back and forth.

The sonographer you get really makes a difference to how much you enjoy the experience. The last one we had was a complete dud, but today’s was brilliant - she really helped us get the most out of our time there, while at the same time being completely professional. Thank you!

Today is the day. Most of you already know, but today I get to write about it.

I’m gonna be a daddy. My wife of five years is pregnant and we couldn’t be happier. Our little Peanut (as we’re calling him¹) is 12 weeks old already and due late July.

Here’s his latest piccy

Little Peanut

I don’t know what it’s gonna be like being a dad, or if I’ll be any good. But when I imagine holding my little child for the first time, I don’t care - I just want it to come right now. I’m so excited².
