Much neglected, and much requested, finally... here is a picture of the blooming mother, and Thing 1. Thing 2 is coming along nicely. Shockingly there's only 5 weeks to go.

I'm sure you'll agree - Nelly is looking gorgeous and we can't wait to meet Thing 2. Click on the photos above to see some more recent pics.

2007 and we're still waiting... as I write, the counter is saying only 00 Days, 04 Hours, 29 Minutes, 07 Seconds to go ...many of the guesses in the sweep have now been eliminated... in fact the only people left are; Catherine Tina Jane & Stew Ben's Dad Christine Peggy Jeremy Giancarlo Rachel Kathy My guess and Nelly's guess is passed. Tomorrow (3rd January) is the medical profession's suggested due date... but as we are going, we could be wishing you all a HAPPY 2008 before this baby's out! Happy New Year everyone.

She's gonna blow...

baby hiccups - check outy-belly-button - check pre-natal class diploma - check not far to go now... will we ever be ready?

With the press clamouring for the first pictures... the housemate is trying to kick it's way out...

There is now some confusion in the medical establishment about how far along we are... so this might be week 27 or week 28... or maybe we have a very big baby on the way... good luck Nelly.

Belly shot # 5 - week 24 and counting... all is not quiet on the western front... lots of kicking!

The next in the keenly awaited series... "Belly Shot # 4 - and this time it's bigger..."

oh yeah, that's just a lot of pasta, Nelly - are you kidding me?!

More photo's in the Belly Shots series now that is a svelte belly... 18.5 weeks and counting...but perhaps, we should also be tracking another perspective... We are both having a race who can get there first! That's just weird looking.
