Sparkee

Okay, so this is what the family wants to know about most. Tiger is due on September 18, 2009. That makes her about 29 weeks or maybe 7 months pregnant.

I've gone through all kinds of thoughts about how our lives are going to change, but at this point I am 100% convinced that I am not ready.

To start mostly at the beginning, we were planning this whole endeavor, but were kind of shocked at how quickly Tiger became pregnant after we started trying. So, we made an appointment with a highly recommended obstetrician. We were called into the examination room, and by the time I had hung up my jacket, a technician had put an ultrasound on Tiger's belly and had a picture of our little bundle of joy on the screen.

This is what we saw:



We thought it (at the time we didn't know he was a boy) looked like a gummy bear.

Our friends' four year-old girl helped us pick out the name Sparkee.
