It's gonna be a boy!!!!

We had the 20 week scan yesterday and the baby appeared to have a penis. I say appeared because they are wrong around 20 percent of the time which is pretty lame as far as I'm concerned.

I will now spend the next few weeks dreaming about Jon Junior wearing the number 11 jersey for Wales in the not too distant future.

Dude, that's amazing. Your missus has a little person inside of her. Crazy.

(Warning, obvious knob joke approaching) I guess it's good that at least one Matthews is gonna have a penis.

Actully Trevor, your name has celtic origins and means large settlement. Although we would spell it Trefor.

You can teach him what you like, as long it doesn't involve how to put on make-up, and the joys of moisturising.

luke said...

like that jodes,
daffydd is a cracking name.
that said it'll be hard for him to deny been Welsh!

great news guys,
how exciting is that!

Anna said...

Hurray! How amazingly exciting it is. Do you wake up and remember every day? Are you knitting hats and browsing for nursery murals? Have you started painting yet? Playing classical music? When will you go to scary-as-heck antenatal classes? Take us with you on the journey...

By the way, as Rob will confirm, there's nothing wrong with male moisturiser... is there, Robby? Jon, since you will soon accumulate more wrinkles than your years would dictate, probably you ought to ask Santa for some moisturiser too. :-) It's too late for Steve but at least the rest of you can be saved...

Anna said...

This is a random comment Jon but you should read 'A Short History of Tractors in Ukranian'. It is all about communism and crap cars.

hell no - moisturising is great. had my first professional facial the other day and it was boss. comes highly recommended.

jodes da princess said...

you homo! I've never even had a facial and I'm physiologically female!

Why would you admit to that?

Jon said...

Kiera, quite a few names on the cards. My favourite is Griff, but noone else likes that. Others include Morgan, Evan and Ellis.

Jodie, Nice ideas and I'm worrying for your kid!!

Anna, I am currently knitting my son a little scarf. And you will NEVER EVER catch me wearing moisturiser.

Joel, this baby is all due to the aubergines.

Jon said...

Just like Daryll eh Trev.

jodes da princess said...

why not combine ellis and evan and call him Elvis?

I already lost hope for our poor child, given as how they will be left sitting alone in the school canteen, munching on a mung-bean sandwich, ginger and pasty - anaemic from the lack of meat, wearing a big knitted hemp jumper. and, no doubt braces and glasses from their mothers genes.

not sure the name will be that much of a big deal given everything else they have to contend with. we could probably get away with apple or moonchild or mudbrick.

i think tofu falafel scrivener has a nice ring to it. or dung tofu scrivener [DTS] ha ha

Jon said...

It's top of my list!

jodes da princess said...

there is also a disney princess album with singalongs. should be right in your league jon.

Anna said...

Why number 11? Is it worn by someone you don't like? Or is it the least challenging position? Just wondering. And it won't be long before you're moisturising, you mark my words. I can just picture you singing along to Ariel as you knit yourself some bed socks. Are you already a granny?
