Only a week and a half?

Sitting down to write a first post I just asked Danielle when "the doctor visit" was.  I was thinking it was two and a half, maybe three weeks ago.  We've had so many conversations... looked at furniture... gotten lab results... seen doctors... told parents... heck, we even bought our first box of diapers (Pampers.  A nice bog box of 100).

Turns out it was only nine short days ago that Danielle went to get her regular thyroid blood work done and a day later that we got a "congratulations" phone call from the doc letting us know that we had our very own little micro-human on the way.  Only nine days?  When she looked at her calendar we were both kind of shocked.  It feels like with this much going on it just had to be longer than that.

Danielle's sister gave us this little stuffed bunny / rattle thing that before I'd never have let into my house and now I somehow kind of think is cute.  My mother in law gave us a little Gap sweatshirt.  I'm sure my mother is all set for gift giving as well.  Danielle has been looking at furniture and clothing, reading "mommy" type books, etc...  What about me?  I don't know anything about this "dad" stuff yet, so I just do what I know how to do... set up a small collection of websites to keep the family informed.  Sure, it may be slightly geeky, but it's love just the same.  I can't wait to figure out a name so I can try to grab the .com.
