The first few weeks...

It's been a few weeks since my last post. Why? I've been busy. Why? My baby girl is HERE! She was born on July 5th. We induced. She was not ready to join us even 8 days after her due date. Delivery went very well. I am SO proud of my wife. She is a true champ. She was even giggling during delivery at points. Nurses, Doctor, entire hospital staff was great. We could not have been happier. Most importantly, our daughter is perfectly healthy! Thank you Lord!

I went right back to work after we got home because my Mother In Law stayed with us for a few days and then my mom took over for the next week. So, this week is my time and am home all week. This is the life! I need to win the lottery so that we can all be home together all the time. I am loving it. My wife and I are making a pretty great team figuring out this baby thing.

My friends with kids always said "I can't really explain how great it is to have kids. Words can't describe it". And they are right, I now understand.

"Did you have the baby yet?"

I wish I had a dime for every time I have heard this question this week. I work in an office. I work close to the breakroom in my office. Everytime a person walks by and sees me still sitting here I get the same question "Did you have the baby yet"???!!!! Now, is this just each person's way of starting a conversation or do people really think that from this morning at 8 when they asked me this to just after lunch that yes, I went to the hospital, supported my awesome wife through labor and delivery, and am now back here at my desk because I love you people so much and just love to sit a computer all day? Several people ask me this several times a day.

Just an odd observation. I am sure it's pretty normal.
