Storms and Babies

Been some big storms here over the last few days, and another one is forecast for tonight.

We’ve managed to avoid the worst of it, but areas around us have had big floods and roofs ripped from houses. Lots of people not made it into work today due to the flooding.

Amazingly Ella managed to sleep through all the thunder and heavy rain last night, even though it woke Val and I a few times.

In baby related stuff. Val has a huge belly on her now and looks ready to pop. We are both getting nervous and excited, although Val is probably more nervous than excited.

I think Ella is beginning to realise something is up. With mummy’s tummy getting so big and our constant pointing to it and saying “baby” and putting her hands there to feel the kicking. She knows something strange is going on. She will be getting a shock in a couple of weeks.

It’s a shame that Twitter stopped working with SMS messages because it would have been the perfect way to keep you all informed, blow-by-blow when Val goes into labour. But having said that the Twitter updates I send still go to the side bar to the right of this site and I will be sending pictures directly to the site from my phone after the baby pops too.

So I guess I’m saying if you want the baby news hot off the press this is the place to get it. If your interested in signing up with Twitter you can find my profile here.

Also, I have some pictures to get up on Flickr from David and Laura’s visit 2 weeks ago too. I should get round to that in the next day or so.

Random Clips of Ella


Random Clips of Ella from Simon Pither on Vimeo.

Had some problems getting my camcorder and my new computer speaking to each other since I got it. So as you may have noticed there hasn’t been any new video clips on the site for a while.

I just put together this compilation of some clips from Val’s camera last night. Some have been sitting on the camera for a while, so you’ll see Ella looks younger at the start. They pretty much go in chronological order though, with oldest first.

Enjoy.
