Hi...
I won't apologize for not writing lately and will explain some day.

I figured I had to write before the events of the next few weeks take place. I'm just going to come right out and say it...I had sex with my wife last summer!

There...it's out...and I feel liberated.

Oh yea...and she's pregnant! I mean really pregnant. Giant, beer drinker sitten' around in a recliner pregnant. I know, I should have said something sooner. Ya see, they always say that you shouldn't say anything for the first few months. Just in case your wife is really just getting fat and has been lying to you. So it was "mum's the word." Then my friend Bret was coming to visit (he would have been the first friend to visit) and so I decided to wait and tell him first. Then he had to rain check so now what. Now it's too late to tell anyone because they'll say "Why did you wait so long?" Then my friend Rochelle said that we were going to get together in March for our annual ski/snowboard get-together and I figured that it would be fun to just show up with a giant belly. It was great. And in doing so, I avoided months of "...so how is Lorna doing?"

My folks know. I told them in Sept. We were having a family get together for my Grandfather who was turning 90 and I just wasn't sure how much longer he would be around so I figured I should let them know. The whole family was poised for a family photo. We were using my brother Dave's camera and I had the remote control. I said "OK...here we go...everybody say... Lorna's pregnant and due in April" My mom said through a strained smile "Is he serious?" My sister responded through an equally strained smile "I'm not sure." It was hilarious. I have the photo of that moment. Someday I will show my child.
