A Show of Fours

We're heading into the final countdown. We have less than four weeks left until our due date, and we could not be more excited. Nor could we be more overwhelmed.

In honor of our four weeks, I am posting a few lists so as to further your invasive insight into our personal lives, which I inevitably and disturbingly extend to everyone on a regular basis.

Four things we look forward to losing in four weeks:

1. Beth accidentally bumping her belly into her surroundings.

2. Heartburn, muscle aches, exhaustion, sore feet, etc.

3. People randomly touching Beth's belly.

4. Sleep. Losing sleep can be a good thing.

Four things we look forward to gaining in four weeks:

1. A baby girl who will be as beautiful as her mommy is. Please see above photo.

2. Fun toys to play with (this will not be me. maybe.)

3. A captive (and immobile) tiny audience for storytime.

4. A family of three that will rock the world.

Four things we need within the next four weeks:

1. A way to ensure our baby girl looks NOTHING like her father. Ever.

2. A stroller, a car seat, a pack-n'-play, and a bassinet. Might be time for us to spend some dough...

3. Finish our birthing and labor classes.

4. To find a pediatrician and get insurance blech set up.

We're coming close to the end now, so stick with us.

We'll be back next time, same Bat-time, same Bat-channel...

P.S. A huge thank you to all who have been so generous in shower gifts! We appreciate your support and the gifts! And I promise that any and all toys given to us will only be semi-played-with by the time the baby girl gets here. Scouts' honor.
