Ready or Not...

We're pregnant! We met with a midwife here last week and expect Baby Blanton to arrive around June 11. If everything goes smoothly, we will deliver here, with a midwife in the hospital 3 hours away from our home...

To break the news to Jody, I wrapped a baby outfit with a card and gave it to him, telling him that this was something he had wanted for a long time and I wanted to get his picture when he opened it. He was completely caught off-guard. The initial reaction was the proverbial "Deer in the headlight" look below, but he quickly warmed to the idea of becoming a Daddy.
