Summary of Events Thus Far

Well -
We are coming into our fourteenth week of pregnancy and it has already been a ride. It seems like only yesterday when she shared the news with me in a very sweet way. Then came the bloodwork to confirm that it was true (even though she had used five, yes 5, home tests). It was now confirmed. We are going to be parents.
Now, as a 28 year old going on 18, I am blessed that I found a woman whose maturity more than makes up my lack there of. The growing up process has now become a full time job but with this job, just as any other, I am still in training. I have a lot in front of me in which I have no idea to prepare except to just put forth all of my effort to make parenthood, just like marriage, a partnership.
Since this is my first time "getting my blog on" AND my first time preparing for fatherhood I am going to keep my initial post short. I am sure that I will reflect back on some things from time to time but my purpose here is to not only chronicle my experiences for myself, my beautiful wife and my child, but also for anyone who has the chance to experience this themselves. Many women write blogs about their growing families but I wanted to write about my experiences from a man's point of view through this wonderful miracle from the inside looking in. I hope that you read whatever nonsense I put up on here and I also hope that if you have any advice for me that you post it. Anyway, my baby mama is doing great! Just a little nausea here and there and the usual nothing sounds good to eat phase but that is mild compared to some. Keep us in your prayers and I will "blog" at ya soon!
