I've become an uncle again, as of last Wednesday morning, Sydney-time (or just before midnight on Tuesday here in Dublin). This one's a Boy, and a pretty damn cute one he is too, judging by the pic I've been sent!
They're trying to decide on a name - not an easy task, mind you, and I'm glad that I don't have to do it myself. Still, both names they've asked me to choose before (way back when I was in Sydney, so who knows, they may have added a few more to the list) I absolutely adore, though one more than the other. Still, either is great. Then again, most names are too. As long as it's not Albert, Alfred or Robert :P
But it's a great feeling being an uncle, it's almost a pity that I'm not likely to have kids of my own. Though, who knows, anyway? :P
It's late, it's dark, worst time to mull over thoughts to enter into a blog (worst time to mull over *any* thoughts, actually) so I shall love you and leave you.
No pics for this one, since it's probably inappropriate to put up the said pic of my niece and nephew without my brother's permission, but I shall leave you with a link to something colourful - mind you, having just finished my week in the Delivery Suite at the Rotunda hospital, I can verify that it doesn't quite happen this way. It's close though, just a li'l bit less simple. Still, enjoy!
Here it is! Where German babies come from.
