I said that when we made the announcement, it would be obvious so you wouldn't have to guess. Well, here it is: Jon Boy and I are expecting a baby on April 2, 2006.

Whoa, that is so weird. I've spent an inordinate amount of time in the yard the last month with nothing to think about all day and I recently thought about posting a thread asking when the heck this was going to happen. (I didn't actually do, did I?)

Congratulations and thanks for reading my mind.

So, besides "A healty baby" what do you want? Boy or girl?

The thread title was so obvious I thought it must have been something else and you were just pulling our (collective) leg.

I don't know if Ruth has a preference, but I'm hoping for a boy (don't all first-time dads-to-be?).

Thanks, guys. I've found it's so hard not telling people as soon as you know! Especially when they ask you directly if you're expecting or trying or whatever. We had more people do that than I ever thought possible. Maybe there was something in our eyes or something.
