The Daisy Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Well, I think the picture will say it all. My wife hadn't been feeling well, so we had to go in to make sure everything was still ok. We found out about 5 or 6 weeks ago that we were pregnant for the first time after trying for 5 years. So, we have been nervous about any little thing going wrong. Turns out, everything with "Lil' Bit" is just fine. Heart Rate of 171, and going strong after just about 12 weeks. I just about lost it when I heard the heart beat for the first time. That baby is going to have me wrapped around it's finger. Also, we got an offer on our house today of exactly what we were asking for. Now we just have to break ground on our new house and we'll be all set. Like I said, probably my best day ever. Glen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTello Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 -ahhh, so that's not a black and white picture of Mick Jagger's open mouth with the word baby tatooed on the bottom lip! -Congratulations Glen! We may need to created a big personal announcements thread, it's seems like there are a lot of great events going on lately with many LCVG members. So, if it's a boy are you gonna call him Baby Mario! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scobeto Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 That is fantastic news on both fronts! There is nothing like the blessing of a child in your life, and I will pray (yes I said it) that everything goes well with your wife's pregnancy. As far as your house goes, my wife and I were paying two mortgages until a month or two ago; One on the house we live in and the one we moved from. The financial burden was nearly unbearable, and I have the credit card bill to prove it While your situation is a different one, the burden that has been lifted and the door that has been opened for your future with the offer is the similar. I wish you a quick closing with a pre-approved buyer :tu: And, I hope you take your wife out for a nice dinner to celebrate all the good news Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcalx Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Congratulations, Glen. My daughter turned 2 yesterday and I'm still wondering where the time went. I can still remember when we found out we were pregnant. They'll have you wrapped around their finger, but it's all worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlucci Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Way cool, Glen! Congratulations! Did your wife eat some alphabet soup immediately before her ultrasound? I can clearly see the word "baby" formed in her tummy? Seriously, that's a great picture. Spoil your wife as best you can during the remaining 6 months. Carlos.

Calvin Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Awesome news Glen, on both accounts! And I know the baby will have you wrapped. My daughter does - the whole trick is to try to keep them from knowing that they do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ant1 Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Cogratulations Glen, as someone who just became a father on Monday I wish you and your wife all the best , and to get some sleep! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Daisy Posted June 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Sleep? I'm having a hard time remembering that. With all of the things going on regarding the building of the house, and making sure that my wife is as relaxed as she can be, and getting in time for CoH, Glen doesn't get a lot of sleep. It's all worth it though. I don't think my wife ate alphabet soup, I just think that the baby is already so smart that it's spelling for the crowd. My wife will be happy to know that Mario and Bat Bat aren't in the name hat at this point. We've already got names picked out if it's a boy or a girl. We'd been going through Fertility stuff for about 6 months and decided we needed to stop for a while to get the house built. Wouldn't you know it, we got pregnant right after stopping the treatments. Thanks for the congratulations everyone. I'll keep giving out the details if people are interested. Glen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
