Nephew Update

My nephew is now 8 months old, and totally gorgeous. He hasn't quite mastered the art of crawling yet... he can only crawl in reverse, pushing himself backwards with his hands (my sister is toying with the idea of attaching a duster to his bottom and letting him polish the laminate floor for her!)

He is very much "daddy's boy" - there was much cooing and chuckling (he chuckles a lot) for his mother, but he goes into transports of delight when his dad gets home. I was amused to hear this (previously) elegant and sophisticated couple refer to themselves as "mumsy-wumsy and daddy-waddy" but as long as I don't become "auntie-wantie" I'm happy!
