I will be completely honest, having a baby was never the first thing on my list of lifelong goals, but I have no regrets and cannot foresee any in the near future.  However, that may change with the 3 hours of sleep / night. I’m very slowly getting excited, and the most recent ultrasound pretty much sealed the deal. Seeing our little one wriggling around on the screen was just incredible. (Insert lame Simpsons joke : I swear she was mooning us!)

Like probably every single other future parent, I constantly have fears that she will come out with 13 toes, 2 heads, or more realistic problems, like developmental problems, underdeveloped organs, I have no idea.  My mind tends to go to strange places. Thank god for my wife, as her job consists entirely of helping infants and toddlers with their speech and developmental problems. That, and her level of patience is enough for us both.

Oh, btw… she will LOVE the fact that I posted her very round, and very hard belly for the world to see. (Please look to your left!)
