Pater: unripe Baby Avocado
Posted by Pater , Tuesday, August 25, 2009 6:41 PM
Below are scans of you, Avocado Junior, while in Mater's belly (8 weeks, 16 weeks and 19 weeks respectively). Already after the first scan we could tell that you'll be good looking, intelligent, witty, a friend maker, God fearing, respectful, happy and the creator of a utopia on Earth. In fact, I have made it a point of whispering these "suggestions" to you every night before I go to sleep. I'm assured that positive reinforcement, as well as getting used to my voice, is a good thing for a baby. I just hope you can hear through Mater's belly wall. How awful would it be if you misheard and turned out mood mooking, mintelligent, mitty, a mriend maker, Mod mearing...well you get my point. It doesn't help that Mater tells me off if I shout at her belly.
Anyway, enjoy the photos as much as we did when they were taken. Except for the time that the rude technician refused to answer all my questions and didn't share in my observation that Mater's womb looks like a Star Trek episode. Not his fault I suppose. He was probably annoyed that, when he was in the womb, his Pater forgot to remind him to be a proper doctor and not a glorified photographer.
Two writers in one family! Does little avocado know what a madhouse he or she is coming to? If so, you can expect some delay in arrival time. But don't fear. Avocado will soon be clamouring for his or her turn to write a post on this wonderful blog. Then we'll read the truth about mater and pater!
