The new angel

Laila is excited.

She saw her baby brother for the first time yesterday, via ultrasound image. She says he looked sleepy. Funny girl.

Baby Cat has seemed to fulle embrace the idea of having a younger sibling. I think she's gotten used to the idea even before I did.

Of course, now that I'm 8 weeks expecting, and because I've also seen the ultrasound image of that little beanie that looks so much like Laila, the eventuality of having another little angel in the family has fully settled in my consciousness too.

Daddy Cat and I have picked out a name for him already. Laila, though, is still appealing if we could have a baby sister instead of a baby brother. Funny baby.

I would sometimes ask Laila what a baby sounds like. Readily, she would say 'Googoo gaagaa.'

She refuses to say it now. I think it's primarily because she's learned it's my way of tricking her into sounding like a baby and putting diapers on her. Also, she tells me that I should wait till the baby comes out if I want to hear what a baby sounds like.

Precocious, won't you agree?
