ETA Of The Baby: Mid-September

Submitted by Bart on Wed, 16/06/2010 - 15:41

We took the belly to the gynaecologist the other day for another check. After a bit of mucking about with clear toothpaste and her echo scanning thingy, the baby doctor explained that all is looking well. Mrs.B is not having those dangerous series of contractions any more. The extra days of rest have worked - even the doctor remarked that she is not bouncing off the walls any more.

However, it's not clear whether Mrs.B's cervix has thinned or not - it just may have. so this Friday she has to have another check-up just to be on the safe side. If she passes that one, we can go on holiday to France. If we can't go, I may develop contractions.

What's also clear is that we're going to get a whopping baby, his or her measurements are well above average. Seems like Wolf is not going to push this little brother or sister around!

Blogs I like

Alcyon's Nest is a nice blog about a nice family in Flanders that I keep visiting. (Dutch language)

Askatasuna is about Goya's travels around the world to play in the mud. (Dutch language)

Remember the two old Muppets, Statler and Waldorf, who made very sarcastic remarks about anyone or anything they came across? Well, there was a third one named Keith, living near Smithy Lane (who constantly changes the address of his site): At Home with Keith.

BVLG keeps his finger on the pulse of Belgian and international web and ICT trends (Dutch language).

Charlie's tribe is a bunch of social misfits from different countries. Because every single one of them is too clumsy with a Kalashnikov to start a terrorist cell, they just huddle together in Brussels and blog about life in the big city.

Chocs Away, Old Girl is the place to visit to get a peek into the deep cleavage of the high-brow beau-monde of Brussels. Includes strong language, restaurant reviews and detailed analysis of Eastenders episodes.

Is your Yeti defective? If so, quickly visit Defective Yeti for immediate assistance!

Scott Adams is best known from the hilarious (but based on the sad truth) Dilbert comics, but he also has a weblog, aptly called The Dilbert Blog.

Get On The Blandwagon: a blog by a sophisticated and funny Australian. So much for stereotypes.

Both related to Winnie the Pooh and Thomas the Tank Engine: Honey letting off steam.

I'd Rather Be Blogging is the weblog of Maureen, Canada's very own Star Wars-loving, computer programming, Trekkie Geek Queen (Manitoba - Canada)

After centuries of fighting for naval supremacy and control of the high seas, the Brits are now Invading Holland.

An interesting mix of news of the world and ICT related info: LVB.net has both an English and a Dutch site.

My Boyfriend is a Twat: my own fairy blogmother because she made me see that blogs can be funny and entertaining. Or make that weird and hilarious

Pliske, for a daily dose of Flemish humour. (Dutch language)

Polskaya has some nice pictures and more nice text and lives in Antwerp, not in Poland. (Dutch language)

Sim's blog by Simone Haskell-Dowland and her lovely daughter Erika. Oh, and her husband's name is Girlpants. Seriously

This site is called Tales of Drudgery and Boredom and has three lies in it's title. It's written in Dutch, but if you don't master this language you can check out the creepy wildlife that Michel finds in his garden.

For an irregular but hilarious view on everyday life with a wife, a baby and a couple of cats, grab your remote control and zap to Velcrometer.

Mister Very Very Bored may be - uhm - very very bored, but in fact he is not boring at all.

Painting with light

A young Belgian talent and a master of street photography whom I ~~envy~~ admire very much: Artur Eranosian.

Gekiekt by Steven Meert, a photographer from Sint-Denijs-Westrem (Belgium).

Brussels through the lens of a Brit: Mannekin Pics by Quarsan.

Nice picks and expert advice on photography (at least to this amateur): Pietel.be.

Another pro that is kind enough to share his wisdom and experience with little amateurs like myself: X-Pose - Confessions Of A Photographer.

Comics & cartoons

When your loved one doesn't answer to your feelings, why not making a brilliant cartoon about it instead of soaking your pillow with tears? This and much more on Kartoen.be.

Cartoons, fresh from under the hen: www.Klier.be. (Dutch language)

Great irony and a sharp pen: Larson's World.

If blogging had existed in the 19th century, it would have looked like this: David Malki's Wondermark.
