So cool

Last night, the baby was kicking up a storm. It was the first time I really got a chance to see and feel her move that was 100% undoubtable. There had been times over the last few weeks where I thought I saw her move but wasn't sure but last night there was no question. It was honestly one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. And when I put my hand on Kelly's tummy, the baby kicked so hard it made me jump a little. I've been around pregnant people before and seen babies moving and all, but when it's actually your own kid, it's kinda awe inspiring.

Also, over the weekend, I got the walls painted in the nursery. I think the color is going to look really dang good with the theme we picked out. Here's a small sample of what the room will look like. Don't mind the dirty trim, that's my project for next weekend.

On another front, picking a name is not nearly as easy as it seems. Oh well, we have a few more months to go.

Busy weekend

Ceiling done. Wall color chosen. Now all I gotta do is actually paint the walls and pull up the carpet and see how the floor looks.

Goodbye dinos

So we initially thought we were having a boy and went a little crazy buying stuff. We found a cute/awesome crib bedding set with dinosaurs on it but it was recently discontinued. We ended up finding the whole set on Amazon and bought it ourselves since it would most likely be gone by the time the baby shower came around.

Well we found out earlier this week that we're having a girl and had to return it all today. We decided to go with the Happi Tree theme below for the baby's nursery.

We also have to start carrying around a baby doll to help get the dogs used to a baby.

Dude becomes Dad

So I'm gonna try blogging again...again. "But, you've gotten bored and stopped blogging twice now!" you say (if anyone actually reads this), "What's to stop you from doing it again?" Well, my friends, this time I have a subject to write about regularly. My wife and I are going to be having a baby girl in a few months! So I will try to share my observations on my impending parenthood here and attempt to be entertaining in the process. Hopefully, I'll actually stick with it this time!
