oh baby!


a few weeks ago when i got home from work

wifey showed me this...

we are expecting a baby!

that's right, we are now expecting a baby!

my reaction at the time...

yes! and wow!

yes! we are gonna have a baby!

wow! i'm gonna be a father!

we are very very very happy and excited, so is the rest of the family

yesterday we went to do a check-up and heard and saw the baby's heartbeat for the first time

it was awesome!

that was one of the coolest things i've ever seen

i was smiling ear to ear

i am smiling ear to ear just thinking about it now

wfiey's about 8 weeks now

we don't know the due date yet, but it should be around end of november

sometimes when i think about it, i'm still in awe and having a hard time believing it

i'm gonna be a father!

so far, so good...

life is going according to plan
