My papa is the best!

  • He makes nutritious and delicious meals for my mommy and me.
  • He doesn't mind that I get in his way when he hugs mommy.
  • He makes sure mommy gets in and out of bed safely during her middle of the night toilet runs.
  • He rubs mommy's feet when they are sore.
  • He speaks French to me everyday.
  • He has already bought me a cute moses basket and re-usable nappies.
  • He always remembers to buy mommy and me yummy fruit when he goes to the supermarket.

booom boooom boooom

Today Yumi went to the hospital for her 16 week check.  She told Thomas there was no need for him to attend as it was just to go over blood test results and to check on her general health.


Test results all fine.  Now time to listen to Baby's heartbeat for the first time...What?!  But Thomas isn't here!


The midwife tells Yumi it may take up to 10 minutes to find the hearbeat.  As soon as the monitor touches her tummy the heartbeat is heard.  It sounds like someone tapping on a microphone.  Then something is being dragged across the microphone. It's baby moving! A lot!


Yumi hesitantly calls Thomas.  Although disappointed he missed hearing Baby's heartbeat for the first time, he is happy that Baby is doing well.  That's all the really matters.
