That bit of news I mentioned yesterday

Yesterday I mentioned that I’d had a bit of news that if it was confirmed would make me very happy.

Well today it’s been pretty much confirmed. Mrs Penguin did a second pregnancy test and it was positive like the one yesterday. On top of that she’s feeling sick and has no appetite for chocolate that probably is more of a reliable indicator than any test from the chemist.

Strangely I feel quite relaxed about it. First time around I worried quite a bit, mainly about making sure we got all the various bits of paraphernalia that go with having children. We’ve got all that now and apart from doing some rather major, not to mention expensive work on the house to accommodate a larger family, things seem rather sanguine.

We’ve even sorted out the names already so there’s hardly anything to think about. I just hope the next nine months go by quite quickly really.

  1. Thanks Mike, if I don’t get on with the work on the house and insulation it will feel like an Igloo in a couple of months time. (Note, yes I know Igloo’s aren’t cold, that’s the point of them, just playing on the fact they’re made out of ice which is generally quite cold)

  2. But you are the most welcome sometimes after the new family member is born!
    Guess what? (I know that you are not interested in this at all, but I still have to tell you ;-) ) A new season of Big Brother started here last week and one of the contestants found out that she’s pregnant… maybe your babies will be born at the same time :-D
