Lewis says "Hello"

I am loving being a big sister. Apart from the crying. Hx

Mx 'Before' and 'after' shots makes it hard to believe that he could fit in there in the first place. He came out just in time for the world cup final. I think he might have been supporting England and sat in a Jonny position for nearlynine months in preparation.

Ax Me and my body are much happier now Lewis is on the outside and that we can all share him. To think we could still be waiting now its enough to make me feel sick (again) !!

Cute Face

That is the cute face of Lewis Edward Coultas Crilly.

Will the baby like Harry Potter?

Hx I like Harry Potter so i hope the baby BOY will too!
Mx Harry Potter Crilly!!! What a great idea for a name Hannah. Do you think your mum will like it?
Hx I don't Michael but i know one thing for sure i don't.
Mx Little baby wizard boy? Is that a better name for a baby? What about the Elvis Wizard? Harry? Or Harold?

baby names

Hx i would love to call my brother Benjamin
MX i've given up the idea calling him Elvis but still have a little hope in the name.
AX I didn't know that choosing a name could be so scientific !
?x I want to be called .....???

Actually ... it's a foot.

Mx From a different angle he looks just like a giant alien foot with ten toes. What do you think out there?

IT'S A BOY !!

HX
I have always wanted a brother and now my dream has come true. I am so excited I am to happy for words.

Mx Just don't ask how the experts in medical diagnostics can tell the difference between XX and XY chromosomes using x-rays.

We had a delivery ...

Hx Actually it's a pram. And when I came home I was sooooooo excited to see the pram had been put up. I ran upstairs and down again, screaming my head off.

Mx Hannah, where has your head gone?

Ax Actually it is an iCandy Apple travel system. Because it has a car seat and toddler seat. So we are feeling well equiped.

Mx It is a real man-pram [have a look at www.man-pram.com if you think I am joking].

Mr.Egg Head

Hx If the baby looks like michael it might look like this!
Mx I am not as good looking as the Egg Head!! But if the baby looks like this, then I think that Hannah will eat them.
Ax If the baby looks like me, Hannah or Michael i will be happy, but the amount of chocolate i'm eating it might well look like an easter egg.

Me and Hot Chocolate @ the blogspot

Mx Hello Karen - Hope you are still checking out this amazing blog.

Hx I looooooooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeee hot chocolate.

Ax So does the baby.

Mx Actually, the baby loves cheese and marmite, mango [juice or smoothie doesn't really matter], egg muffins and school dinners.

Hx Baby also loves double deckers [five packs only]!!!

Ax Yum, yum. The baby has good taste. At least I am getting to eat now.

new baby toys

Mx I orderd a pram this week. Boring you might think, but no. There is a subculture around prams to be discovered. We got one that is a cross between a transformer [a robot in disguise....] and an iPod. It can transform between a pram, two / three wheel push chair and basket by remote control. [Actually it doesn't really have a remote control but if you make prams then I suugest there is a niche to be filled for new dads who like gadgets]. It is called iCandy !!!!

Hx The baby has a special toy to called Mrs.Frog.

Mx Mrs. Frog is a blanket with a frogs head [we have the pictures to proove it]. Or it [she] could be a frog with a blanket for a body!!! What a great idea.

Baby toys last forever .....

Hx The baby will have a special toy too!!!!!!!! Ax Not a great week for eating well. But a five mile walk on Friday helped and did us both a lot of good. Mx This week he /she has been listening to Radio 4 while everone else is asleep. They should be born with an extensive knowledge of current affairs. The plan is now for a baby toy that can join the other three aging fluffy toys above. Pink Ted, Jammies and Dog. Guess who owns each of them?

12 week scan

Mx This is a scan of a scan. The best of the three images we took last Friday.
Hx We still do not know if it is a girl or boy.
Mx It is very comfortable - sleeping with its hands behind its head. But it does look like it has ginger hair, even from this picture. It [I mean he or she] takes after Andrea with a very small, cute nose.
Ax So Michael hopes... It [I mean he or she] is still making me feel quite sick, but now we know it's real, and it moves and has a personality, it feels worth it. Roll on blooming please.
Hx I am really excited going to be a big sister, the only Thing is my mum is very tired all the time!
Mx The due date has now officially moved from the first of November to 31st October 2007. It is good to know they can tell all this from measuring a scan.

Ax The scan also told us that everything is fine. The baby is developing normally, is the right size [6cms long] and all it's bits are in the right place, so a big sigh of relief.
