My Journey to Fatherhood

So here is today - the official beginning of the third trimester. I cannot believe just how fast time has gone by, but also that we have experienced a pretty uneventful pregnancy. No morning sickness, no hormonal outrage outside of the norm, and all tests have come back normal. As far as blog material goes, I have had a big bag of nothing up to now.

During these last 2 months we have:

• Painted the nursery (neutral color) and the office/guestroom.
• Replaced all our carpet with laminate hardwoods. My allergies are thanking me for this investment as the amount of dog hair in our house has been dramatically reduced.
• Got additional term life insurance. I am just waiting for JoAnna to pop a cap in me and collect (j/k).
• Registered for about 75% of our stuff.
• Pre-registered for day care. I can't believe they already have a waiting list for December.
• Started our birthing class.

We have also come up with a first name, but I am not telling what it is just yet. This was something I anticipated would take forever, but the name we have decided was on both of our lists.

This was JoAnna back on May 7th. Baby's first vacation trip, in utero of course. Baby experienced the mountains, the desert, and a really bumpy-ass ride to some indian ruins.

This picture was taken back

in June. The setting is our posh office complex, so baby was thoroughly enjoying the cube farm.

This picture was taken at our hotel in Miami on June 25th. Baby tasted her first cuban food (which was bbbaaadd) and had her first Mojito. Don't worry, it was non-alcoholic.

This was taken just last weekend before our first birthing class.
