[He Said] I am super excited, and I don't know squat about raising a kid!!

I'm excited beyond words!!  I'm excited about becoming a parent.  I'm almost speechless, but with a big smile on my face.  Jen is excited too, of course.  We are very blessed and the time is right.

With that said, I don't feel like I know the first thing about babies.  Seriously!  I don't know where to begin.  I don't even know what it is that I don't know! ... So, I'm reading my books, taking notes, etc. (for whatever good that might do), talking to people critically, I have a strong support system, loving family and friends, and I'll be careful, but also--most significantly--I have Jen.  She is going to be an incredible mom.  I can't wait.  I love her more than anything, and she is going to be amazing... I'll watch her closely and ask for help when I need it.

Here's one of our first baby pictures

Aw, I love an ultrasounds picture...one of the best parts is seeing that sweet little heartbeat!! Wasn't that such a sweet and relieving moment?!


Again, so happy for ya'll! I really didn't like being pregnant, but I adore being a mom. Get excited!!!
