My wife is just past her first trimester, so far so good.  Two arms, two legs, a head, and can see a bit of the nose (more likely it'll be more pronounced in a few weeks). 

Should be expecting an endfire Jr sometime in February!

Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Get your gaming in now!  Best advice I got was you wont believe how hard it is to get out and do anything on your own time after the baby is born

PS Be aware that baby mamma is needing more attention as well.  I am still paying heavily for leaving my 7 month pregnant with twins wife in Boston during Hurricane Irene while I evacuated safely for a pre-deployment party of one of my army buddies in Vegas....... :knuppel2:

Thanks to you all, the missus and I are happy.

Haha, good advice!  I bought what I could on Steam while it was on sale - maybe it's time for a Playstation or something.

Yeah I am having to tell the folks at work that I'm cutting down my work travel a tad, although I can support while in town.  In the future, I'm hoping for a few more closer to home client locations, but we'll see.  We both work, and her main US office is in Minneapolis.  She doesn't have to travel as much, maybe a trip to Minneapolis, or to a client (I think she might want me to travel with her to Japan end of September, which I think is safe - something different than Cornwall UK!

try and have the baby in Minneapolis so it doesnt suffer the stigma of being British.  O:-)

Congrats Endie.  BTW, the kids these days are all about the Wii U. But lord knows what it will be when your kids gets to gaming age.

Haha, well, weather in Minneapolis looks pretty much similar to ours.  Actually we live in Montreal and planning on avoiding UK for a bit if I can. 

It's funny but my wife had all sorts of plans (Macau was one option).  Sounds complicated to me, but my in-laws are there, and are quite old (80 and 69) and my father in law is waiting for some test results before travelling.  We're looking over the options as they do want to come over, but it might get kind of cold in the winter here, and boring for them until Spring and Summer sets in.

Looks like I'm already out of touch.  I figure it's going the way of the Nvidia Shield tablet eventually.
