Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs Steve! Looks like the first rounds on us at the next gathering! I reckon Mom & the new arrival will be just fine. \:D/ =D>

Jaundiced = no problem - pretty normal in Asian / Asian-hybrid babies.

Congratulations! Jaundice is pretty common here so as long as the wee one gets enough sun, she should be fine!

When I get some requests. ;-)

I was originally thinking around 21 Nov as a send off for nutnut but we could make that a double celebration!

I'm open for the 21st of Oct as well, considering that the 22nd is a middle of the week holiday but I think it's too short notice if the last one is any example.

Congratulation Steve. Mine had jaundice too and a little sunshine a day kept it away.

Hey SMS,

I have nothing in my diary for any of those dates, however, our helper will have left us so we will not have babysitting, i.e. Mrs Mcnutnut wouldn't be able to come along.

Let me ask her and reconfirm, I am terrible at doing the social calendar, I leave it up to the Mrs normally.

Also, Lynx has to come, since I've missed her the last few times.
