...that I'm a dad-to-be.
The news broke over Twitter a while a go and I made an announcement so at least "some" people can hear it first-hand for the first time.
So the vital facts are as follows:
- The kid is about 10 - 12 weeks now.
- Expected to be delivered in May. If we can hit May 22, then s/he'll share my birthday.
- Names? We kinda like Josiah for a boy. I wanted to give some bimbo name like Tiffany if its a girl, but the wife violently objects.
- Some people have been suggesting names though. Percival, Bambi, Optimus - and other wierd un-nameables coming up.
- What if I just named he/she "Ah". Full name on passport? Ah Lian.
- If he's a boy, I'll introduce him to his first space marine when he's 6. By 7, we'll be playing chess with space marines and orks and he'll learn to hold a paint brush. I promise not to laugh at his pink space marines.
- If she's a girl, I'll introduce her to her first space marine when she's 6. By 7, we'll be playing chess with space marines and orks and she'll learn to hold a paint brush. I promise not to laugh at her pink space marines.
