General Pinochet

I remember watching a film years ago called 'The Siege', in which sleep deprivation is discussed as a form of torture to interrogate suspects. I think that Sarah and I are about ready to spill our guts. I think that even Jack Bauer would have cracked by this point. We shouldn't complain, as Michael typically only wakes once or twice a night, but we're both feeling the pinch.

Michael has had lots of visitors over the last week. He's managed not to be sick on any of them (so far!). Here's the ones we remembered to get pictures of.

This is Anna from my work. She popped by to play with Michael for a while.

this is sarah kavanagh, who's about to migrate to australia



natalie and nicky from sarah's work


(favourite?) uncle jamie and his girlfriend roz dropped by. uncle david was also there.

alix and tracy (and millie) have also popped by, but we forgot to get pictures. we'll get them next time!


Michael has started putting on quite a bit of weight. he weighed in at 8lbs 4oz. I missed it, but i have the mental image of michael being at a weigh in for a boxing match.
