Remember I told you some time back that Mrs.SAHD was pregnant? Well time has well and truly moved on and we're looking down the barrel of new parenthood some point in June.
I think most of the early part of this year I have managed not to think about the consequences. LP has been interested but in a high level theoretical sort of way. Now there is no mistaking the size of Mrs.SAHD nor the strange angular shapes that her stomach makes whilst she reclines on the sofa watching 'stenders.
LP's interest level has gone up a notch and now we talk openly about the 'NEW BABY'. I think LP is excited but I'm not quite sure he is ready for his mummy and daddy love to be cut, precisely, in half. I'm not sure that either of us SAHD-Os are quite sure what to expect either. I mean it has been five years since LP was ripped bloody from his mother's caesarian scar, looking like a pink angry yoda.
Actually, come to think of it, LP has only started to get really interested after we told him that the baby would 'probably' buy him a present. He's already chosen the required present (which somewhat takes away the surprise element but ho hum..) which is a big lego batman ..err.. thingy.
I have to go and pick up LP from school but this topic is an interesting one and so I shall re-visit it. In the meantime if you have any tips or hints for the smooth transition from 3 to 4 then we would all be very grateful.
