boys are okay
I suppose you have all been wondering what has been happening with us. Well, not a lot really. I'm not sure why we haven't been posting. I kept meaning to, but then I'd forget, and suddenly another day had gone by. It doesn't take long for those days to become weeks. We will try to do better.
I thought you would all like to know that we had another scan a couple of weeks ago, and I am proud to announce that the McMuffin bairn will be born with a willy. Mrs McMuffin surprised me by being disappointed that we were having a boy. She has told me all along that she really didn't mind whether it was a boy or a girl. Secretly, she just assumed that she was going to have a girl. I have now been finding out from lots of women that they too were disappointed about having boys. I don't know why but I really feel the urge to say: BOYS ARE OKAY. I imagine it probably has something to do with feeling more confident about looking after a new baby girl because they're women or something. I certainly hope so.
This is a picture of our son in profile. It's taken from his last scan pictures when he was 21 weeks old. Apparently he has a smaller than average head, but a larger than average brain, and he has longer than average legs. All McMuffin characteristics. I'm sure more posts will follow.

Gosh, I was also sure it would be a girl - how funny!
A friend of mine who teaches in a primary school says that little boys are just unruly terrors, whereas little girls are nice. But I think she's biased, my friend, because she was a girl.
In the end, it's just totally wonderful that you're expecting! Glad you've posted again, too.

I don't know about the McMuffin characteristics but how does that willy compare to the average?

Hard to tell at the moment, David.2. However if it's in line with other McMuffin characteristics, it will be much @8%&££$ than average. The poor bairn's penis must have been fairly noticeable though, as I did ask the woman if it was possible that she was mistaken and it was an enlarged clitoris and she just laughed at me. That's when I gave up on having a daughter.

Congrats! Yay!
I have no idea if this is true, but I have heard that boys are MUCH easier for the mother. They don't do all the psychological wrangling. Boys love their moms!
