I just had to...

Found this on the January 2009 Mommies Message board on What To Expect.com

Q: Should I have a baby after 35?
A: No, 35 children is enough.

Q: I'm two months pregnant now. When will my baby move?
A: With any luck, right after he finishes college.

Q: How will I know if my vomiting is morning sickness or the flu?
A: If it's the flu, you'll get better.

Q: What is the most common pregnancy craving?
A: For men to be the ones who get pregnant.

Q: What is the most reliable method to determine a baby's sex?
A: Childbirth.

Q: The more pregnant I get, the more often strangers smile at me. Why?
A: 'Cause you're fatter than they are.

Q: My wife is five months pregnant and so moody that sometimes she's borderline irrational.
A: So what's your question?

Q: What's the difference between a nine-month pregnant woman and a model?
A: Nothing (if the pregnant woman's husband knows what's good for him).

Q: How long is the average woman in labor?
A: Whatever she says divided by two.

Q: My childbirth instructor says it's not pain I'll feel during labor, but pressure. Is she right?
A: Yes, in the same way that a tornado might be called an air current.

Q: When is the best time to get an epidural?
A: Right after you find out you're pregnant.

Q: Is there any reason I have to be in the delivery room while my wife is in labor?
A: Not unless the word "alimony" means anything to you.

Q: Is there anything I should avoid while recovering from childbirth?
A: Yes, pregnancy.

Q: Does pregnancy cause hemorrhoids?
A: Pregnancy causes anything you want to blame it for.

Q: Do I have to have a baby shower?
A: Not if you change the baby's diaper very quickly.

Q: Our baby was born last week. When will my wife begin to feel and act normal again?
A: When the kids are in college.

conversation

WORLD: Hey, Gin. Watcha doin?

GIN: Nothin much. Currently? I'm watching 101 Funniest SNL Moments on E! and I'm playing around with my playlists on my ipod.

WORLD: How are you feeling?

GIN: Pretty good, actually. Other than being tired quite a bit of the time, I feel good. (cue James Brown.) The little peanut will have another photo-shoot on July 10th, so I'll try and have some photos up after that.

WORLD: What are your plans for today?

GIN: Well, you're pretty much looking at it. Like Gerald said this morning, I'm going to have a "Dog Day." If you've ever been around a dog much, especially our big lump of a dog, you'd understand why the only times I've been up off the couch are to potty and to eat lunch. I've been working hard, and now I'm resting hard. I usually don't get a slow Saturday Morning, so today's my day. :-)

Oh, and check out our Flickr site to see our Kentucky Derby Party Pics!

I love yall!

YIPEEEE!





We are ever-so-excited! Our baby's estimated arrival is January 19th, which makes me 8 weeks, 1 day along today.

To think.... I was "pregnant" when I wrote the last post. I've only just now pulled the Kentucky Derby photos off the camera (they were right before the pee-stick picture) and I'm setting them up on our Flickr account. Do a search for isptech151 (it's Gerald's account) and you can see them there. There are tons more pics there - all going back to our NYC days!

I've been feeling good lately - no sickness at all. Just a little nausea every now and again, and that's mainly smell related. I have DEFINITELY hit the exhaustion stage, and that's pretty much what's on my mind right now.

Yep. I'm ready to sleep now.

Gnite
