Having a Baby Changes Your Life
If I had a nickel for every time someone told me this, I'd have a lot of nickels. One of my favorite things to do is travel. "You will have to give up traveling" is another thing people have generously shared with me. So here I am, on the road again - this time to Brazil and Argentina. That's Copacabana Beach in Rio, taken from my hotel. And while I have had an awesome time on this trip, I have continually battled the urge to jump on the next plane home to be with Lynn and the baby. As much as I love traveling, I want to be home. Yes, that is quite a change. But a good change. I know once the baby is old enough, we will take him/her with us on the road to childhood.

Update
Well, there are 14 more weeks to go. Lynn is getting rounder and the baby is getter more active. I can see it move. From the father's perspective the last few weeks have been like watching paint dry - not a lot happening. I am sure I will be wishing for "not a lot happening" come mid April.
This weekend I am going to daddy boot-camp. I get to learn how to change a diaper, feed, bathe and dress a baby. It is true, I have never done any of these things. Fortunately, our friend Kim and her baby Benjamin are coming in Feb, so I am sure the girls will want to see me use my newfound skills. Benjamin, I apologize ahead of time.
