Sweepstake Time!

Edie, Isla and Frank play chase at the zoo.

Hanging out with Mark. Frank cried when he left.

Saturday morning bike ride with Dad (who used one of Frank's gloves as a hanky)

Storytime with Ginny and Murray

Bike race with Iris. Sarah, Kate and Phoebe as referees in the background.

Yep. Six weeks to go so time to place your bets, ladies and gents. We want to know:

a) what date the baby will arrive

b) whether to expect a boy or a girl

c) the weight

d)hair or baldie.

To place your bet, type your comment then for 'Choose an identity' check 'Other', enter your name and hit 'Publish.'



Keep in mind that the due date we've been given is 22 September (Nick Cave's birthday) but that Frank was induced after ten days - so this one could be a Scorpio or a Libra. Frank was 7 lb 11 and had some hair. Libby hasn't had much in the way of cravings this time apart from slices and M and Ms for a while there. Let us know if you have any questions...


Back to the photos, briefly. Dougal is now feeling much better and is back to wrestling with Frank and took him for a bike ride and a spot of league on Saturday morning. Frank's been having a ball hanging out with everyone and soaking up as much attention as humanly possible. We've been doing our best to catch up with friends, knowing we are going to be hibernating soon enough.

I'm REALLY hoping not to go over due this time - Pappy, I nearly cried when I read 3 October! That would be a repeat scenario of Frank, having to be induced on 2 Oct then a long labour. Noooo!!!
A free trip from Perth, eh? We were thinking more along the lines of two free nappy changes...

G'day folks down under in windy Welly.

Ta for the nice comments on my blog - can't tell you how pleased I am that you are keeping yours going as it is great to be able to check in on your lives from a distance (as, you know, the spy cameras mounted in your house don't always work...)

Anyway, my bet for the Frankie upgrade is -

a)14th Sept (reckon the second one's going to be early)
b)Girl. Trust me on this. It's a girl.
c)7lb 05oz
d)A fine sprinkling of blonde hair (hey, don't blame me - I'm just telling it like it is. Er...like it's going to be)

Will be delighted to win the first prize of a nappy change but will reluctantly settle for the runner up prize of tickets home from the UK.

Go Libby!!

I'm almost always wrong but, like Catherine, will give it a go!

A) 17th Sept - have a strange bias for this date;)and, having had two overdueys, hope thatyou dont't have to wait too long!
B) Girl
C) 8lb 1oz
D) Definitely hair, prob a lovely reddish-brown.

Now that I've put in my entry, it's a given that you'll have a 7lb boy with no hair on the 28 Sept - or is this called hedging my bets! Could always donate the priza to some lucky recipient who doesn't have the honour (?!) of changing a million nappies every day...
