great expectations


For those of you who haven't heard, Brooke is pregnant with our first child!!!  This is exciting, crazy, scary, and lots of other things.  She's almost 11 weeks along but the ultrasound picture is from when the kid was 9 weeks old.  I've been assured that he/she will get cuter.  I was going to list all the things that have already developed by this point in time but the list is too long.  It's amazing how fast this little guy/girl grows.  His or her heart has been beating for over a month and while it's still too early to tell whether the baby is a him or her that is already determined as the testes or ovaries are already developing.  For those of you who don't want to try to figure out the math the anticipated due date is December 1.  Whoah!

Congrats!!
You two will be great parents, and yes it is as hard as it sounds! However few things can compare to the joy of it.
Let us know if there is anything you need, we tend to hang on to things and lend them out as needed.

having kids will make you wet your pants; what an awesome privilege on one hand, and a frightening thought on the other.
