Baby is locked and loaded

Last night, after easily getting Logan down to bed from a busy day at
the Desert Park (among numerous other things with Mom), Dad worked at
night on updating the http://www.sunchase.org website he created as part
of his help to assist the Northern Territory Model Solar Vehicle
Challenge. This is an annual event where school aged children form
teams and try to build the fastest model solar car or boat. But it
isn't just about building the fastest car as they are also judged on the
best poster, best interview, most safe (an egg driver must survive the
journey), best uniform, and best overall. This year it'll be easier as
last year we had to build the 80 meter long figure eight race track,
among other things. Meanwhile, Mommy had gone out for her weekly
'Alexandria Quartet' practice at friend's Nicola and Peter Gilham's
house in which she gets better and better at playing the oboe, only made
more difficult each week by an enlarging baby within. Mom and Dad were
both tired, not only from Logan's recent sickness bout, but also because
of lack of sleep. Daddy's of course was more his fault for staying up
late. Mommy's problem was more internal, with a fetus constantly on the
move and a belly disallowing a comfortable sleeping position. Mom has
been going to bed at around midnight and waking up at around 4 AM...
poor Momma.

On a bright note, Daddy came home early from work today to watch Logan
while Mom went off to a pregnancy check-up appointment. Dr. Matarazzo
is an excellent doctor and regularly has hour-plus long sessions with
Liesl. In this latest check-up, it turns out that Logan's forthcoming
baby Sister is head down in the perfect position, unlike her older
Brother who defied gravity and remained steadfastly head-up throughout
the pregnancy. It is a bit early still, however, so our little one may
yet 'breach' her contract and turn tail against the norm. Only about 10
or so weeks to go!
