It’s been a long time since I last posted on this blog. But I had to post about my very first ever Father’s Day. Here’s how it went down, and here’s why it was one of the best weekends of my life.
On Saturday, after a lovely sleep-in, Annie and Katie presented me with my Father’s Day bounty, and what bounty it was! Annie’s very first ever painting, on a canvas bigger than her, is the best present I have ever received from anybody ever.

No Comments On Annie’s one-month birthday, I have hijacked Katie’s computer to add more photos of Annie! Here they are. Enjoy!
My baby No Comments Two days short of Annie’s one-month birthday, I have returned to my blog to add some photos and a brief Annie update.
Things are going quite smoothly so far. Being a parent is a lot of work, but also (so far) a lot of fun. Annie is sleeping quite well and is a very placid baby, so she is mostly a joy to look after. She is a hungry little baby, and is happy to feed from breast or bottle, which is excellent news for situations where we are out in public or when Katie has left me alone with her for a while.
Katie, My baby No Comments The last few days (since Friday to be specific) have been incredibly busy for Katie and myself. Rather than attempt to recount the amazing newsworthy events of this time on this blog at this late and sleepless hour, I shall just copy and paste an email I sent in to work this morning. Here it is.
News No Comments A recent study suggests that the baby brain phenomenon – you know, the one that makes pregnant women leave the iron on for five hours and not realise, or lock themselves out of the house on a weekly basis – may not be a pregnancy-specific condition.
Research conducted suggests that there is no mental deterioration that occurs when a woman falls pregnant. Which would suggest that blaming the ‘baby brain’ may not be as viable an option as it once was.
