Hey, guess what?

My wife's pregnant!

With a baby!

[ETA: Her post is slightly more detailed, if you want details.]

\0/ That's fabulous news! Congratulations!

Thanks! I'm still wondering when it will feel like a real thing that is actually happening.

Well, depends on what kind of baby, doesn't it?

[identity profile] kcobweb.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 06:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Baby? Huh. That's okay too.

(Congrats!)

[identity profile] outsidetheparty.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Took us long enough, didn't it? :)

[identity profile] stealthmuffin.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Woooo! A new friend for Frank! (Once baby moves out of the pupal stage.)

I wanted to name it "Blastocyst" but squirrelhaven is refusing. "Blastocyst Beck." Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?

'Besha'ah tova!' (that's Hebrew for 'in a good hour', and it's the traditional blessing for expectant parents - may everything happen exactly as it should, exactly when it should.)

[identity profile] outsidetheparty.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
That's a good blessing. Thank you.

WOW.

Is the world ready for this?!?

*hug*

[identity profile] outsidetheparty.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, the world has until late September to get prepared :)

[identity profile] chicagowench.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
MUAHAHAHAHAHA! More supergenius snarktastic children to TAKE OVER THE WORLD

Congrats you two.

[identity profile] outsidetheparty.livejournal.com 2008-02-07 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
This is just phase two of the plan for world domination.
1. Acquire isolated mountaintop lair
2. Generate supergenius snarktastic child

Still working out what phase 3 will entail.

You apparently have to have a secret handshake to know more than the fact that successful fertilization has occurred. Her post is private.

Congrats anyways!

Hey, look, everyone, my sister has an LJ! :)

To summarize: we've achieved hormone-induced mood swings, exhaustion, an ultrasound, and a teeny-tiny heartbeat. Actually she achieved all that; all I did was watch.

Yippee!

I'd also like to add that her post is just above yours in my flist. I get the news in stereo!

[identity profile] outsidetheparty.livejournal.com 2008-02-08 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
We couldn't agree who would get to announce it first, so we brought our laptops into the same room, did a countdown, and clicked 'post' simultaneously. :)
