We are both on cloud nine and after 2015 being a lousy year re my health and OH worrying, it is soooooooooooooooo good.

Will baby be a girl? If so will she be like her mother - a Miss Bossy Boots from a very young age. She could talk the hind leg off a donkey at age 2 and was out of nappies at night. I can recall when I had to keep spare nappies and her elephant nightie as she regularly refused to go home. Mummy pleaded with her saying Daddy would wonder where his little girl was - reply 'Daddy phone'.

How lovely, Chris, congratulations! I am still waiting for a 'real' grandchild, 0nly have 4 'step' ones which is nice but not the same especially as I see them infrequently due to distance.

I bet you can't wait for (Ai0ugu-ignore) August to come.
