Babies!

In my circus’ history, 2011 will be known for its baby boom. Yes, this Year of the Baby will have seen six babies born to the troupe. Six! With the artists, technicians, musicians and other assorted troupe folk, we’re maybe twenty people. That’s a lot of babies all at once for such a small group, especially when some people are past the baby bearing stage. Okay, there was one set of twins… but still.

Six babies!

That’s a lot of babies.

And now that I think of it, they alternated girl/boy. Even the twins. There’s one baby left to round out the six, and based on the trend that I only just noticed, I predict it will be a boy.

Bring on number six!
