It goes like this:
I was hurdling toward 30 last year and a month or so before my birthday in October, Steve and I had a very long talk on our front porch one evening. We both decided it was time to start the family we had long wanted. And you know. It was that night, or one soon after: boink! We made a baby. And he is due in June!
We are thrilled beyond words to be parents. I'm enjoying my pregnancy to the fullest; it has been easy to do since luckily, I admit, I dodged the nasty first trimester bullets. Really, I am going with the motions. I'm probably the most under-read pregnant woman you've ever met. But if I was reading, reading, reading, I'd make myself cuckoo (just visit some of those forums, ugh). So I'm going with instinct and surprisingly, it has done wonders for me.
Our baby does have a name -- this too was easy. We're continuing with family tradition and so he'll be Stephen George Surname III. We are affectionately going to call him George.
George! Georgie! George! You guys, I can't wait to meet him.
