    Congratulations! IF it is your first, you'll find out why parents say that it changes your life in ways you cannot begin to imagine. Best wishes on a happy and healthy pregnancy.

    Congratulations!! It is a life changing decision you guys have made. The best decision we every made was to have children. They have been a blessing to us and are now giving us grandchildren that are taking us to a new level of pleasure and happiness. Get ready for the journey of your life.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Congratulations. I had to chuckle when I saw the photo explanation. You wouldn't want people to think your wife is just getting a pot belly.

    Get ready for major life changes.

    I hope that it's uneventful and the baby is healthy.

    Same here - or maybe it's your oven like it is in my case. Funny shot!

    Congrats on your news!

    Re: Uh Oh....

    Thanks ya'll. So far its been pretty uneventful, except for the fact that this is the first grandchild on my wife's side. My parents already have 8 grandchilden, so they're used to all this

    So far we know its a boy, and my wife's due date is April 5th, so yes I've known for a while, but didn't get the chance to post anything since I wanted to get the oven shot before I posted.

    Congratulations and welcome to the club. Catch up on your sleep now, make sure your license is clean for all the driving and kiss any private time goodbye. It is completely worth it.
