A bit of this and a bit of that

You know, I just realised that 1980 was actually 30 years ago. Ok, I’m not going to break out the anti wrinkle creams just yet, but it’s amazing how quick time flies when you’re looking back. I was only 8 years old when 1980 came by, but my memories stretch all the way back and [...]

So, I’ve taken a bit of a break off my diet over Christmas. I as expecting to put on weight as we were visiting our families in Malta and having lunch with one family and dinner with the other. And besides the expected increase in calorific intake, there were all the Christmas goodies and spirit [...]

Well, looking after the babies is pretty much a full time job, which means more time with the family and less time to blog; though I do get the time every now and again to spin one off (just like this one). I am getting better and better at typing with one hand though. I’ve [...]

We’re sitting here at home and we’re actually managing to watch TV. Arthur is in bed, and the twins are miraculously both sleeping at the same time. There’s FlashForward on TV (we have an old CRT at the moment, not a flash bell tv) and Camille and I both have our feet up.
It’s a rare [...]

Yes, I know .. there’s a danger of overdoing this, but these twins are just adorable. Check this out:

It’s starting to hit home about how much work this is going to be, so no plans to for that long vacation to the Sandestin resort we had been talking about for so long. But it’s all [...]

Well, it’s still a few weeks to go till the official due date, but Camille’s started getting loads of pains; you know the sort, bands around the abdomen; contraction pains actually. They’re not steady or regular, but it’s enough to indicate that we don’t really have long to go.
I hope the pain doesn’t get [...]

If I were a betting man, I’d be taking odds on when the twins are due to come. The actual due date (based on calculations from date of conception etc) would be 13th October. Our doctor says they won’t let her go past the end of September though. The thing is, Camille’s been having practice [...]

So we got the cot out last weekend and set it up, so that’s one thing sorted for the twins. We got out Arthur’s baby clothes too, and gave them all a wash so they’re nice and fresh for when the babies arrive. It’s all taking shape slowly, we now have the car, the cot [...]

Here’s a scan we had of the twins a few weeks ago before we went to Disney. You can see each of the twins here. They’re so big that there’s no way you can see their whole body (as you can see from the scan). Anyway, you can imagine how excited we’re getting as the [...]

Well, we’re getting ready for the home stretch, with the twins starting to make their presence felt. The due date is actually mid-October, but it really doesn’t feel like there’s much to go, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re here before the end of August. That would be early for them (as you can [...]
