Okay, I'm not saying your focus is in the wrong place here. Maybe it is just because you all have heard the news from us in person... But when I scroll down I see it like this:

One of the biggest stories ever - the news of my child to be: 0 COMMENTS

So I have decided to make the announcement unique. Forget that you know about the pregnancy. When my Hello Kitty bikini top arrives in the mail I will be requesting Daniel's video production services as I lip-sync a song announcing the birth of our child.

Exciting, isn't it...

I'm excited...

Nervous...

...to be a Dad. But also extremely greatful.

But don't say I didn't tell you about this before. If you all were faithful readers of my blog you would have noticed the cryptic message at the bottom of my post from early September hinting at the idea that we might have a big secret.

Maybe this will teach all of you to have a link to my blog at the top of your lists. There were a few who interpreted my message and we have shared many a good laugh at all of you who failed to pick up on the secret.

I hate women's retreats. They don't occur that often, but when they do I am left for a weekend alone. I am trying to stay positive about them and I have come up with a few things that are good about my wife getting a weekend away:

1. She gets to spend quality time with her mom and sister-in-law. (Although a 'day-camp' format may be better - just a thought ~)

2. I get to go to sporting events - i.e. the Michigan State game today. (Although it would be nice to go with Ang, I'm afraid she wouldn't enjoy it as much as me.)

3. I fell asleep on the couch last night. I love sleeping on the couch - although I prefer that Ang sleeps with me on the couch. Sometimes (because Ang is so very gracious and understands that I think couch sleeping is one of the most comfortable things ever) we pull our couches together and sleep in our living room for a ritual we have deemed 'couch night.'

btw - Couch night is best during the holidays when the Xmas tree lights are left on...

Okay, enough with the positive spin - there isn't much else. I just miss her lots...

You must do as I say...

To the cabin...

Ah yes...

This is the second Fall in a row that we will be taking a trip to the cabin.



I can't wait to get there and enjoy the peace and quiet...
