A blog detailing the ongoing slobberpalooza that is the life of those with both a baby and a boxer.



Waiting... Waiting....

Only 8 days now until the day that the "experts" are predicting that Wigglebum will stop breathing amneotic fluid and switch to air. What this means in real life is that any day, any hour any minute now, it's gonna be baby time. Which is sort of like "Hammer time", but with smaller nappies.

And while Wigglebum wiggles around in Karen's belly, the butterflies are really doing a lot of wing flapping in mine.

The best way I can describe my feelings right now is I feel like I am going bungy jumping, and I am at that point where the guy with the dreadlocks has me all strapped in. I am looking down into the ravine, knowing there is no way to back out. The whole thing seemed like a good idea before, but now faced with the grim reality of the enormous drop, I am having second thoughts. I know anytime now, I am going to be plunging downwards into the unknown, hoping that bungy cord is going to hold up...

    You'll be fine .... You'll both make great parents, one that any wigglebum would be lucky to get!

    I know you and Karen have nothing to worry about as you will be good parents (you both have good roll models!. Being a parent is not easy and you will make mistakes (we all do). You will have lows but the ups far out weigh the lows. I am excited and cannot wait to meet my new grand child.

    Lots of love
    Mum

    Don't worry James....the jump isn't that bad...it's just getting used to the "3 of us" instead of the "2"...the tiny new arrival will have you around his/her's finger in no time..Hang in there!!!
