I am discovering a general theme with new parents concerning their children: having children is great and they would not trade it for anything, but the first few months are hell. Hm. This does not excite me; therefore, I am sending out an official request to watch my future baby for the first two to three months of his life. Now, I have not run this by my wife yet, but I will just assume it will be fine.
In other news, shopping for baby stuff is overwhelming. We went to Buy Buy Baby the other night to start our registry for our future baby shower. I know, I know, we were VERY bored that night. Just looking at the number of pacifiers can make a grown man cry. The highlight of the trip was the community cookie plate that was offered to us while we were walking the store. I ate like five of them. Buy Buy Diet.
We bought a sweet stroller called a City Mini. Check it out:
The name is unfortunate, but it is a cool three wheel stroller that is light weight and has great maneuverability. I can’t wait to pop some wheelies with my kid in it. Anyway, we really need cooler stroller names besides the “Zooper,” “Gogo Babyz,” and “City Mini.” If I have a boy, I don’t him cruising around in something called a Bugaboo, ya know? I want something more menacing and fierce like the Raptor, the Bone Crusher, or the Dragon Wing. Yeah, the Dragon Wing would be an awesome name. I guess those names would not be geared towards the target market, but whatever. Maybe I should create a line of manly strollers that is made for the common man pushing the stroller. Something like this:
Tomorrow starts the 15th week of pregnancy. Yikes! My wife’s belching has not yet subsided, nor has her appetite to eat anything in sight. I have heard it is only gonna get worse from here. Hooray.
