The computer has been moved into our master bedroom.
The boxes labeled “Nursery” have been drug down from the attic.
My entire collection of children’s books has been corralled into one small bookcase.
The receiving blankets that were given to me for safe keeping have been located and are waiting to receive a little bundle of joy.
Our little bundle of joy.
After 9 years of a wonderful marriage, Dan and I are expecting our first child on January 15, 2010.
We couldn’t be more thrilled.

Very belated congratulations! I’m a bit behind on everything lately, as I’m in a family way myself! Looks like we’re due around the same time–the 6th of January, here.
