Reasons to be cheerful!

Fine looking lad. He looks a little bit like Winston Churchill. Take that as a compliment if you will.

90% of babies look like Winston Churchill! Although G3 (Grandson 3, no name yet) is a particularly fine example.

He does look like he wants a cigar, esp. in the last picture!

The probability is he'll never smoke and he'll live past the turn of the century

He's already made his mark! Crapped on the carpet! LOL

Firebird will be going through the same thing pretty soon! 

You've got kids. You remember meconium!

Yes, I remember meconium! I bet you're all looking forward to the seeing the mustard yellow poop. One time I took off the diaper and I don't think he had finished pooping, so more came out with so much pressure, it was unbelievable.  There was yellow poop everywhere! And I mean EVERYWHERE! 

Ah...memories...there's nothing better than sharing baby poop memories in the morning.

Thanks Tom.

G3 now has a name, Edwin, to be known as Ed.

Well my third grandson arrived just before midnight last night on the 22 Sep 2016. He weighed 9.5lb. He's doing fine and so is his mum. No name as yet. 

Congratulations.

Thank you. Just off to meet him for the first time:D

Congrats Tank!

Well my son was the performance engineer for Alonso this weekend and helped to get him from last to 7th (15 places) and two places in front of Button who started in 10th and finished 9th. Also a red letter day for McLaren. This is the first race since Honda came back to F1 that both cars finished in the top 10! Plus it was Jenson Buttons 300th race so they turned part of the pits into an English pub to celebrate. All in all a good weekend.

Indeed. What an exotic life your son leads. I expect he has to work v hard for an achievement like that though.

Our daughter arranged a surprise holiday for Mr M and me, so here we are in Cyprus. We were a bit down when son, wife and our granddaughters went back to Oz, and quite tired. Cyprus is getting v built up now, but still many beautiful parts. V expensive tho; the hotel is offering £1 for €1.02, but I think they charge more than other places.

Yes, it was.

A bandicoot or coots have been digging holes in the yard. 
I had to put a dead one in the bin once, when we had a dog.

My work crush asked to take me out for my birthday. And here I thought I was going to be the one to make the first move.

Sounds hopeful!
