Uncle Matt is “in the know”
So I know it must feel at this point like we have told a lot of people, but truly this is not the case. We have told key individuals mostly because our daily lives could not operate and we would be caught in a constant lie. But in this case, we told Uncle Matt because…

Another Person “in the know”
It is funny writing about these people that we are telling about you. Not because there is a random reason for letting them know or any other reason than by the time you read this they may no longer be around. Hopefully they are, and my assumptions tells me that they will be, but you…

4 Year Anniversary
Today is 4 years that your mom and I have been married. Not just saying this, but they have really flown by. My next task is to write about our story and how we came to be, but today is not that day as we have plans and I don’t have time. Just to give…

9 Weeks Today
Just a quick update, but today is officially 9 weeks! Just 31 more to go. Mom and I are ordering in because, well, we are being lazy and don’t feel like cooking. Not to mention your mom has been craving this mushroom and swiss hamburger from The Tavern at Bown Crossing for a while now.…

Trip to Seattle
This past weekend we took our first trip since finding out about you. My friend from childhood got married in Seattle, so Mom and I took a short road trip (7.5 hours) over there to take part. I was a groomsman in the wedding and in our downtime your Mom and I explored the city.…

We Told Nonnie About You!
Your 9 week mark came and passed this week. It was Thursday, and we celebrated by sharing the news with your soon to be grandma (you might know her as Nonnie. Up until now she did not know about you, and she could not have been more surprised or excited! She had not been to…

Current Situation and How We Got Here
Typing the whole story about how we met, got together, our journey and why we are here now will take longer than the time I have right now (but I will make sure to do another post at a later time). Half of the reason I am typing this up is because your mother constantly…

What Will Your Name Be?
Figured this was worthy of discussion. My parents had a list of possible names, most of which I absolutely hated, that they shared with me when I was older. My name when I was little was incredibly rare, although it has become very common over time. My parents had a bunch of names: Elijah (yep…
