Go Team Germany!

     Hallo! Wie Geht Es Ihnen?  I wanted to give a big shout out to all my German readers who have crept up to 2^nd place for the number of readers in a country on my blog.  I honestly have no idea how you found out about me, but welcome!  I love your board games.

      I should probably give you a quick status update on my wife (you know, the one who is actually carrying the baby).  The morning sickness is practically gone (thank God) and it seems like everything is all quiet on the western front for now.  Her “baby bump” is slowly but surely growing, although she is at that awkward stage where people might just assume she is getting a gut...you know, the kind you get after indulging in one too many leinenkugels (shameless German plug).  Seeing how she has had such a flat stomach her whole life, she hates having people think she is getting fat.  Speaking of being flat, her other “bumps” are growing at a much more rapid rate, which is just fantastic for me.  Here are a few pictures to reference…the stomach, not the other thing I mentioned. STOP LOOKING THERE!

     Next week will mark the half-way point for this pregnancy.  At that time, I will unveil the 20 week ultrasound picture.  Easy, settle down kids.  It will be difficult, but I know you can be patient and wait one more week.  I can’t wait to see him/her, but it will still most likely look like an alien.  Oh well. 

 

 ps This is not our baby. Ours is MUCH cuter than that one.
