Oops!

Beck reminded me that I forgot to tell what my late birthday gift was!

I got two bibs! One's blue, the other's pink. They both say "I Love Daddy."

Irony? I thought so.

Finding out...

So when Beck first told me that we were going to have a kid, I was completely surprised. I had just come home from work, and she told me that she had a late birthday gift for me. She hands me the gift bag, I pull out the card, and it says on the outside of the card: "Daddy." Now maybe you're thinking that it should have been obvious, but if you know us at all, you know that we're a little obsessive about our pets, and when we speak for the pets, Beck is "Mommy" and I'm "Daddy." So, I was thinking that the pets all of a sudden remembered my birthday and I was getting a present from them.

Begin tangential note:
Beck had been waiting to take the pregnancy test we had bought until the morning time (when it's supposed to be more accurate). I had called her from work to find out if she had taken it, and she lied to me, because she didn't want to tell me over the phone.
End tangential note.

This is what the card said:

------------------

Dear Daddy,

Mommy asked me to write you a note asking your forgiveness on her behalf. She didn't want to tell you about me on the phone earlier today. She's sorry and she hopes you'll understand.
I love you and I can't wait to meet you in about 9 months.

Love,
(insert baby name here) or Baby Boy =)

------------------

Sorry that I didn't insert the baby name there, but we're not telling.

So.... Praise God! And Praise God!
