The last post before I will have no time to post...



1 day...Megan will be induced tomorrow.


Yep, the big day is basically here. We will be heading to the doctors and then the Hospital shortly after that. I feel as if this entire pregnancy has been a pretty long process. I know it has felt longer to Megan. During this process we have been through many up's and downs. Not between Megan and I but just life situations. Nothing horrible, some bad stuff that was tough to get through but, we did, and we did it with flying colors. My only hope right now is for the entire delivery/birth process to go smooth. I think Megan really deserves that. Her entire pregnancy has not been a story book one to say the least. As a husband I really pray that this part of the pregnancy ends in an amazing manner and almost brag worthy. I really do think that it will happen, we are in one of the best hospitals in the country, Megan and the baby are healthy and I believe in my heart everything will go fine. You hear about people having kids all the time and I have always wished them well. I never really thought about what the parents go through the night before or during delivery. I now know. I am sure this is just one of many new understandings I will now know as I become a new parent.

THE 3 MOST ANNOYING THINGS I HEARD WHEN I TOLD PEOPLE MEGAN WAS PREGNANT THAT I WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO NOT HEAR EVER AGAIN.

3. " Man your Life is going to change forever, enjoy your life now while you can!" (annoying laugh and slap on the back)

Yes, I understand my life is going to change. But, do you actually think I am hitting the clubs and showing love right now? No, I am a homebody and so is my wife who looks forward to having our baby sit in the lamb swing as we watch Netflix for hours. I think my club days are long gone, and trust me, I tore it up when I had the chance. Ask any person who bartended Downtown Orlando during the years of 2000-2007. My liver still hurts.

2. "Your life is over!"

Thanks to all of the douches who said that. I hope that your kids end up finding a really great step dad in the future and by the way, I am sure you are late on a child support payment.

1. "Get ready to get no sleep, get as much as you can now."

Yes, I know that babies for the first 6 weeks and sometimes longer cry and cry and cry until they finally sleep the night through. I also know that you have to feed them every 2-3 hours there in interrupting your former sleep filled nights. I am sure I will be tired and want to get more sleep, but, you are also talking to a guy that runs on about 3 to 4 hours daily. I have always been a night owl and I really think that will help me with the constant feedings. I just think to myself, of all the things you can think to tell someone. This is the wisdom you wish to pass on? I will never do that. I am sure there will be plenty of other little nuggets of wisdom that I will be able to pass on to future fathers to be.

I do want to Thank all of the great people that have passed on great pieces of advice and wisdom to me and Megan. It is very much appreciated and will be used for sure.

Now..on to meet Baby Meglos!!
