Pregnant, Barefoot and in the Kitchen

I don’t think anything could prepare us for being pregnant. (and by saying “we” I am trying to show as much sympathy as a husband can show) The swelling, the stretching and the constant discomfort was definitely a new experience. I prayed and prayed that we would have a boy first and my wish was granted when our OB/GYN in Lubbock told us the gender and explained that he sure was a “big boy.” I think all doctors say the same thing to all fathers expecting a son. It is just nice to know he is taking after his father. His due date is January 6th, 2007. And for us those 40 weeks could not go by faster.
