Kate and I have just been to hospital for her 20-week scan on baby number two. It's great news - all fingers and toes and everything else developing as normal - and it's going to be a girl! We are both really thrilled - it means one of each.
I wasn't allowed to blog before that Kate was pregnant with our second child - because of certain work-related matters for her. But I can blurt it out now and the fact that we are having a daughter.
In a way, I wanted to wait for it to be a surprise, but my wife didn't, and she's the boss in these matters!
We are really delighted that Thomas, who has now just turned one will have a little sister. And as for Kate, she is just going to love girly chats with her second child and clothes shopping . . .
Talking of which, none of Thomas's baby clothes will be suitable, as they are all on a blue theme rather than pink. No doubt proud mum will rectify that situation and thoroughly enjoy herself in the process.
The Big Day is set for July 29 - can't wait!
PS - Thomas is coming on fine by the way, trying hard to talk and walk but not quite there yet.
