PINK OR BLUE?

Becoming grandparents again is just as nice as the two previous times! Ishie, aged 4 years old, and Alastair, aged 3 years old, are going to have a new little Vancouver cousin in August. Alastair and Dawn are expecting their first child and we enjoy their regular up-dates on Dawn's pregnancy.

Today Alastair sent an email with an attachment of a video showing a scan taken of the foetus at around 4 months gestation. He said that it might be a boy but still has to be confirmed.


PINK or BLUE? ... a lovely question to keep us going through the spring and early summer!

Last Saturday I took these photos of the cherry blossom across the road from Bruce's apartment. They line King's Park and the very old, very fine adjacent golf course of Stirling Golf Club.


The new mum's family are looking forward to their first grand-child so it is all very exciting! Here is a photo for the new Grandpa-to-Be who is a keen golfer. That's the players out in their golf buggies in the far (centre) distance. Stirling Castle is just out of site on the right.


Meanwhile the new dad, Alastair, signed off his email saying that Dawn and babe are doing well but "I, on the other hand have gained some weight, am having trouble sleeping and am constantly craving pickles. On the bright side, my hair seems to be growing again :)"
