Ooops… I forgot

So it’s interesting how last night in my effort to get this site off the ground, I posted a little more information than my wife and I have made public.  Luckly I realized this before I got to work today, and blabbed about my new blog.  Angie is scheduled to see her doctor on Monday, and we decided that with very few exceptions (most out of necessity) we are holding off until that point to let everyone in on our surpise.  That means if you are reading this before Monday, please keep it quiet. I realize that everyone in the world is splitting at the seams to tell the great news, but I’m going to have to ask you to refrain.

For those of you reading this after the trip… well, I guess you can look at it as a behind the scenes glimpse of how this whole secret-keeping process works.  We are both finding it hard to keep it secret, and are looking forward to Monday.  

A couple nights ago, we went to a bonfire/fellowship with the youth group for Halloween.  We thought it would be funny for Angie to dress up like she’s pregnant.  I guess we underestimated how many people would ask if it was real… that was tough… We agreed not to lie about it ahead of time, but Angie was masterful in her ability to answer their questions, without answering their questions… Probably should be more careful.

First Post

My wife and I recently found out that we are expecting… as in a baby. My first reaction was to stick my chest out a little, and make comments about the effectness of my little swimmers… then there were a few minutes of doubt while I searched google for confirmation that two lines mean pregnant, even if the second line is faint. I tell you all of this to say that I now have a reason to start (and hopefully update) a blog.

There is also the part of me that is secretly hoping that I can suck my wife into this little world I have created. She’s so much more creative in her writing and descriptions. I can’t help but think it would be so much more fun to read about our adventure from her perspetive. We’ll just have to see I guess. Keep an eye out for posts under her name though. Oh yeah… guess I should tell you that her name is Angie. She’s beautiful… she’s my wife… and she’s pregnant.
