The Power of One

Who is that mystery blogger . . . Why it's me. I know where have I been? Why no blogging in awhile? Well let me tell you pregnancy is a real B****!! With all of the late night cravings, lack of sleep, being uncomfortable, and don't get me started on the weight gain. This is only what I am going through I bet Becky has it easier. Hahaha! It's funny how we guys start to have the same issues come up from our pregnant spouses. Think about it. They want ice cream, you want ice cream. They stay awake, you stay awake. They mention how it's starting to become harder to see their toes, you mention how it is harder to see their toes. Yeah that last one made me experience some pregnancy pains across the face.

Well baby Liam is doing fine, maybe a little too fine. At 30 weeks of pregnancy he is weighing a little over 4 lbs. Sounds like he has his Dad's skills (eating skills that is). Now Mom on the other hand, is not too hot. Becky has been put on modified bed rest. What's that you ask. Well that means the Doctor has given Stephen the keys to the car and he gets to drive for awhile. (I only wish!) Truthfully her days are now controlled by a blood pressure cuff. On good days I can take her out for dinner or a short trip to the store. On bad days she is down and out. Due to the issues the Doctor has been discussing moving the delivery date up. Since I don't want to jinx it (and yes it is a date I have been lobbying for) I will not mention it as of yet till the Doctor confirms its a go.

For now we are making plans to get everything lined up for delivery. We have the crib, changing table, stroller, car seat/carrier, and diaper bag all taken care of. So what's left is on our registry at Babies R Us. Click here for the link to the Registry.

We had some pictures taken of Liam on Friday and I must say I think he is telling us to leave him alone right now. That or he thinks we are #1. Look at the 3D image on the right of the picture. If you think it's an obscene hand gesture on top of a foot in front of his face you got it right. As the tech said when she saw it on the sono "Oh my! He's giving us the finger". Thanks son for being so expressive, message heard loud and clear. Now go back to baking and we'll check on you in a few weeks.

Well I must get back to my Spring Break. It's nice to have some time on your hands to relax and not have to be busy studying Organic Chemistry. I hope everyone is doing well. Hey anyone up for a guys baby shower at a casino in Oklahoma? I'm thinking a road trip does sound good.
