Mark is here! Lloyd was a trooper and cleaned up the guest room, so Mark isn’t in danger of crashing into any piles of garbage. We’ve had a good evening visiting and comparing electronic gadgets, and best of all – talking about the new niece or nephew that’s on the way!
The picture is tiny because I ONCE AGAIN left my camera at school and had to use the camera on the iMac. That’s proud papa in the green t-shirt, and me in the v-neck. The little one is due in June and is currently about as big as a newborn kitten, according to the very scientific measurements done by the ultrasound elves. Rachel, hot mama, is a WARRIOR, as are ALL mothers! Rachel, if you’re reading this, know that you are my hero – truly, the wind beneath my wings. You raise me up.…… so I can climb on mountains…….You raise me.. Ow. Who just hit me?
Congratulations on the new family member! Clearly, (s)he is destined for greatness. You can just tell these things.
“Don’t have a kitten!” hehe…
Who was it that used to say that all the time? Maybe it was one of my Uncle Dick and Aunt Gloria’s kids?
Congrats on a new niecphew, Lauren! (Congrats to you, too, Mark!)
Now that I think about it, I think “Don’t have a kitten!” may be a quote from Heathers. Anybody?
I never heard of that movie. Are you sure you have the right animal in your quote?
It’s not listed on imdb in the memorable quotes…
Isn’t it ‘a cow’?
I’m sure I’ve heard someone say “Don’t have a kitten”, or something to that effect. If I figure it out, I’ll let you know.
Was it your subconscious telling you not to spend the money? “Don’t have a kitten, Brad -- save for taxes! Mmmmmuuuuhuuuahhahhhaa!”
WoooooHooooo!!! Congratulations!!!
Rachel, I hope you’re not barfing. Or even feeling like you should be barfing. But if you are, know that labor and delivery are NOTHING if you have an awful pregnancy. Cake, I tell you.
Mark, congratulations! And if Rachel is barfing or even feeling like she should be barfing, do anything for her that makes her happy. Anything.
Trust me. I know these things.
Congratulations Mark & Rachel & Lauren & grandparents & aunts & uncles & cousins & friends!
Geez little niece/nephew or niecphew or nephnie--boy do you have a wonderful crowd awaiting your arrival!!
Yay Mark and Rachel!! Many congrtulations!
When s/he gets a little bigger, make sure you keep the bananas out of reach. Otherwise s/he may grab one and eat it peel and all!
