Well I finally made some time to get a damn post up on here. Every few days I’ll navigate out to this site only to have it stare me down and discourage me from making another post. My thought process went something like this:
Hey I should post something! I have a great idea!
-That’s great, but you need to explain what you’ve been up to so people can at least get a semblance of where you’ve been these last few months.
That’s too hard and I’m tired from a long day, I’ll just go to bed.
I’ve just accepted the fact that there’s no way for me to begin to cover what I’ve been up to and find the time to pack it into a single post, so I’m just going to go with the big stuff and hopefully my thoughts won’t come out too random. Also I apologize for sounding so disjointed, it’s been months since I’ve written this long that’s not a work-related email (sad, I know).
So let’s start with the biggest life changing event, which is best explained in our Christmas card:
Yes, we’re expecting our first child to arrive in June, and can’t be more excited! As we’re finishing up our 21st week (well Bethany is, I’m not really doing heavy lifting), we’re starting to get a grasp of what we need to do to (try to) prepare for our young bundle of joy. We’ve taken to calling the baby “In Beta”, coined after the software development term. At some point I’ll share some experiences we’ve had in this transition into forthcoming parenthood, but in the meantime I wanted to get this exciting gem out there and apologize to those of you who haven’t heard this news before.
