Father's Day...I don't think I really qualify for a day yet - next year. We had a good Father's Day. We went to lunch with mom and dad and then stopped by their house for a nap. In the evening we went to Lodge to spend the evening with Swoop C and the brothers. I am going to see if we can stop this process of LA having a baby. I don't think I had all the details and responsibilities before this process started. (Where's the instruction book?) Emmy (Heather and Mike's daughter) was sitting with her father next to me on the sofa and earlier had been telling everyone her stomach was hurting and everyone assumed she would be fine. However, her stomach had another opinion. She threw-up and Mike did an excellent job of catching it in his hand and with her dress and most importantly off me. Awesome, what a great father! The smell was just like you remember throw-up. It never changes...makes you want to throw-up. If that is what I am in store for- I'm out...hopefully, our model will come with the iron stomach and impenetrable immune system...I'm praying.

Keep'em Working...It's Good For Her
06.14.08
I took this picture when I got up from taking a morning nap today (Saturday). LA hard at work. You've gotta love a wife that isn't afraid to get her hands dirty and won't let being pregnant slow her down. Pregnancy is a temporary condition not a disablilty...just because you are pregnant doesn't mean you can't work. It was hot outside, so I only stayed out long enough to take the pictures and get her something to drink. Does this mean our baby will be a hard worker like LA? I hope so, she needs some help with the yard and house. I love air conditioning, cable tv and my wife!
PS - your guess is as good as mine as why I had to change the color of the font to get it to show up...!#@&*)^ computers

Tang...Not Exactly
06.11.08
LA went to the place this am to take the gestational diabetes test. She successfully drank the thick syrupy mixture under the five minute deadline. She choose orange flavor over the lemon-lime which isn’t surprising. You know how much see loves an orange drink. She didn’t think it was too bad with the flavor – tasted like just the syrup from a fountain drink but not something she would choose to drink on purpose. Anybody that had to drink it unflavored, she feels sorry for you. She sat around for an hour reading magazines ( I am sure they were all the magazines that tell women all the reasons their husbands suck and how to change them and if they don’t change to dump them, take ½ and find one you can change…can’t wait to get home to see what step 1 is) and then they took her blood. If the results are bad, then we should know something in a couple of days; otherwise, it’s no news is good news. Hope she doesn’t have “the sugar”.
LA and I want to give a shout out to our friends Travis and Minde. They had a baby girl early this morning - Caroline Elizabeth Wheeler 7lbs 12oz. They are going to be great parents. Check out their blogspot http://www.travisandminde.blogspot.com/ as Paul Harvey would say "to get the rest of the story". Trust me it's a good one. God is Good!

Lamaze Class
06.10.08
We signed up for Lamaze class in July on a Saturday. What else could we do on a Saturday in July during the summer? However, that option is better than the taking the class for 4 weeks. Hope we get a take home book but I am pretty sure I know everything already (I’ve seen it on TV and read about it on the internet) Looking forward to that and already practicing with her…breathe, breathe, breathe, push, push, push, breathe, breathe, breathe, push, push, push….and were done. :)

Walking With LA
06.09.08
Monday…No school…We have decided to keep roughly the same schedule each day as we had grown accustomed to during the school year – instead of waking up at 5:15am we have pushed it back to 5:45 – 6:00am. We are walking each morning for about 45 – 60 minutes. It is good way to start your day…spending time walking with my pregnant wife. Hopefully, we will be committed and continue this.

Time To Start Working Out
06.08.08
The pregnancy workout program has started. We went to Swoop C’s pool today and I swam laps while LA got a sun tan. Who is supposed to be getting in shape? It was so hot that I could not stand not being in the pool so I swam laps (like up and back, take a break…it hard to keep my fat behind on top of the water without sinking). LA did start working out by treading water in the pool and I joined her. That is a pretty good work out. She is going to keep the pool part of the workout going during the week.
