Greg's Pre Baby Pump up Speech

Its funny to think about how much our parents probably had to do to get ready for us to be born. They didn't have the internet, HD Tv's cell phones, or even cordless phones. Yet, they still were able to manage. I think the hardest part right now is the waiting for Gregelina to come along...I told someone the other day that this is like waiting for Christmas except worse because someone keeps moving the date for Christmas. So most of the time I...

...yes, dress up like I won the gold medal. Its actually funny because you can't make plans (Murphy's Law and all--make a plan baby comes)...so Mary Lynn and I have gotten to spend a lot of time together. That has been a huge perk of post third Trimester Gregelina.


Well, okay so maybe we should have stayed in Cincinnati. I think one of the neat thoughts that I've had in this whole process is that ML and I have only known each other three years and yet we will have known this child for its entire life. Longer than anyone else. I am excited to see what it looks like moving on the outside (although many a good night was spent watching it dance from the inside) and hear it laugh. Not really cry or poop...but I hear that comes with the territory.

The unknown is good...we all drove for the first time, went on a first date, and headed off to college without really knowing what we were in for but darn it we all made it. But now I have Google and Mary Lynn has the Nest to help us figure it all out.
