I'm back for now. Matt informed me that I needed to blog more since he checked it everyday and I hadn't posted anything about our recent news...So, we're having a baby (which I'm sure everyone knows by now). That's how most of our time has been spent lately...wondering what we are going to have because I am ready to buy clothes NOW!! Picking out cribs, strollers, things that we are going to need, fighting over names because we can't seem to agree on one (I swear we are going to have "baby Hurd" in the hospital).

Then there is the realization that we are going to be responsible for a sole human being! That is scary. Can we do this? Will we make the right decisions for our child? I know that we will be loving parents and that our baby will always know that he means the world to us, but how will we handle the big decisions, like teaching him to be his own individual without being a freak?

Neway, I know I'm being morbid so I will stop and leave the big decisions for later. Right now, we're just marveling in the fact that we created this person that's living inside my belly and can't wait until March when he/she will arrive into the world and we get to hold them in our arms for the very first time.
