Confessions of a Liar

OK, I must confess. That earlier post about "third time's a charm" was a lie. You see, I usually don't subscribe to the "the end justifies the means" theory, but then again, before I was allowed to blog about our happy news, paternity tests from the UPS man had to be conducted. Just kidding. So now the proverbial cat is out of the bag. And the bun is in the oven.

The last few weeks have been tough. Initially we were gonna hold off on the grand celebration and euphoric activity until the doctor's appointment confirmed everything looked great. But the utter ecstasy of accomplishing what we have trumped all caution. Although Leah and I are "cautiously optimistic," there has been NO reason whatsoever to believe that everything is anything other than OK. But 7 days from now, Dr. Bannister will hopefully confirm that very thing, give us an "official" due date, and check for the existence of more than one heartbeat--standard procedure for someone on fertility medicine.

Welcome to the ride of our lives. Leah and I are honored that you've chosen to come along. We welcome any and all comments, and just appreciate the love and support that we've gotten over the last several months.

I've already experience so many emotions, from elation to worry and everything in between. Hopefully this blog will not only help me work through the emotions of a father-to-be, but give you a window into our lives at this special time. Again, welcome--let's make this trip a fun one.
