The Look
You've probably already read my long explanation of yesterday's events. Believe it or not, I left a lot out. Those of you with kids already know what I mean.
One thing in particular that will stick with me is "the look." When your woman is about to tell you she's having your baby you'll know it before she opens her mouth, trust me.
There wasn't much doubt in my mind what I was about to hear. I think she was a little disappointed because I didn't say much. Under normal circumstances, she probably would've been all over me for having no reaction to big news. I guess when the news is big enough it's ok to be speechless, huh?
Honestly, I was waiting for the next bomb shell to drop. Judging by the look on her face, I figured there was going to be a string of information for me to process. When there wasn't anymore for her to say, I was a bit surprised.
Note to the guys: the first thing that comes to mind in this situation should probably not be said out loud. You're best off keeping your mouth shut. That way you might fool her into thinking you're just being cool and collected.

The first thing that came to my mouth was "There's only one right"
The second thing I said to my wife was "So does this mean that you will be picking up a second job?"
The third thing was - "Do you think that you can work until your water breaks??"
Of course I was silent for the first couple of weeks until I said those things.
Case in point, Clint.
Congratulations!
It won't be log until you find yourself saying things like...
"We'll get there when we get there"
"Because I said so"
"Ask Mommy"

Parenthood is better than any new car.
It is better than any vacation.
It's even better than a new house.
BTW you better get crackin on that nursery.
Best of luck!

"Ask Mommy"
I doubt we're going to hear that one.
In this house there will be no second opinions. :)
LMAO You guys are so funny! One day soon, reality will appear. :)
reality will appear.
Reality... Is that a girl or boy's name?
You need to start thinking of a name. Hey wait, this is your chance to name someone ASH (or Ashley if it's a girl).
Shhhh...
Kelly doesn't know about that movie.
"Ask Mommy"
I doubt we're going to hear that one.
In this house there will be no second opinions. :)
OPINIONS - there should be no opinions - only iron hard laws. You must rule with an iron fist. And if the baby doesn't like it put him/her to work in a foundry in Siberia (or Rhinelander)
<>Cue evil laugh sound track<>
Kids are great
Oh boy, or is it Oh Girl, or OH KNOW it's a little AARON!! When will we know?
And let me remind you, it's going to be:
"yes dear,"
"what every you like dear,"
"anything for you dear"
"I will be delighted to do that for you dear"
and my favorite,
"It's my fault, Dear, what can I do to fix it"
Aaron, it will never be GET OFF MY SHIT &!$*#, DEAR!!!
