Title: I can't come to Mittens because... I'm pregnant!
Post by: cat on Sun 19/03/2017 12:49:31
Iceland sounds amazing, but no Mittens for us this year. We are going to have a baby in September ;-D so I won't do any long travelling this summer.

As it turns out though, we're going to Prague, Vienna and Budapest so that's off the table.
Awesome! Would be great if we could meet in Vienna. Since I'm off from work in July already, I have lots of time. We could also go on a short side trip outside of Vienna, like we did in Kawagoe...

cat, that's truly wonderful news! Congratulations to both you and raeff. September is also a nice month for being born, with all these late-summer birthday parties (that you have to organize and moderate  ;-D ).

Cat can't do mittens
Coz she's having kittens!
Can't wait to meet'im (or her)
Just try not to get bitten.

@Cat As for Vienna, it will be some time in the 2nd week of August. I haven't got the exact dates to hand but I'll let you know when. If we can meet for a cup of baby-friendly beverage that would be great :-)

Congratulations! Oh lady. Is it your first? If yes, this changes EVERYTHING :) Trust me, I'm a dad of a nearly 6 months old girl and she already turned my world upside down (laugh)

Enjoy that sweet pregnancy time with your partner and maybe, if you still feel like talking like an old crazy hobo hag is your thing (wtf), you'll find time in the near future for our voice job interview/skype chat := :-[

Just to spread the love around a little more...

Quote from: Andail on Tue 07/03/2017 06:41:30
I would love to go to Iceland, but we got a new baby coming up and we'll also just have moved into a new house, so the odds aren't great. Still might be able to pull off a weekend, who knows...
Quote from: abstauber on Mon 13/03/2017 19:55:07
Awesome destination (nod). But I'm in the same shoes as Andail, so no Mittens for us I'm afraid.

Congratulations equally to Andail and H________ (whom I haven't met, I don't think), and to abstauber and Christina!

It's certainly seeming that way. Although in your case, maybe we should call it Kittens. (laugh)

Last week our lovely daughter Ada was born. We had a somewhat rough start and had to stay in hospital a bit longer than expected, but now we are back home and doing really great :)

She is the cutest baby ever and we are totally in love with her :-*

Here's some kanji I selected for Ada's name mainly because they looked cool together. Haven't really checked their meaning but here's my dubious gift for her first birthday: äºÅ"æ‹¿

And welcome to the world, little Ada!

(Maybe when she's a little older, you could "start her right", so to speak, with some of those cute kiddie adventure games like "Freddie Fish".  Let's get her into adventure gaming early! (laugh))

While parenting is an adventurous enterprise, this topic probably fits better in gen gen.

Oh and great to hear you're all well, the three of you! You have a great time ahead of you.

My oldest is soon 3 years and the second 5 months, and their ages are great in their own ways (even though they get increasingly stronger personalities, which is quite awesome).

It is, indeed. But wie also like the name itself a lot.
