Babies

I just got done watching Juno. I always enjoy a good teenage pregnancy movie. The one scene that really hit home for me was the scene in which she tells her dad and step mom that she is pregnant. For those of you who don't know my life story, I found out my freshman year of college that I was going to be a father. I was 18 and had to make the phone call to my parents that I was going to be a dad. I can't say that it was the easiest thing to do. Fortunatley like Juno, I had parents that while were a little concerned at first, ultimately were supportive. Fast forward 8 years. Trevor is now 7, and awesome, and my wife and I are expecting our second child. This phone call was much easier to make.

Now that I have officially told most people that I should, I figured it was time to talk baby. Mandy is 4 months along, and due early October. We are both pretty excited.

New Baby to be is another reason that I want to get into better shape. I always thought one of the perks of being a teenage dad, was that I would be the young, hip, in shape, dad. That hasn't been the case so far. I figured that the young and hip thing might not be salvageable, but the in shape dad part can.

Anyway, I am off to donate a couple dollars to Susan Sommmers or Sally Struthers, whoever, I have a consious to clense.
