Tonight, the Young Adult class surprised us with a Baby Shower! (I actually knew about it for about a month and a half and had to keep it a secret from my wifey – thanks to my friend Gabe Ritter!)

It was an amazing evening! It was mostly a book-shower but we also received some bibs, a few “toiletries”, as well as some rubber gloves, a pair of safety glasses, and some face-masks for me and my diaper-changing duties! Oh dear.

We stayed at the French’s home for almost 5-hours enjoying the fellowship and stories!

We are blessed to have such friends!

Complete photoset is here.

Because the internet needs more things like this:



So, week 2 is under our belts.

Speaking of “under the belt”, we watched THE video tonight – “The Stages of Labor”.

We were warned about this one weeks before we even started this class – and rightly so!

Let’s just be honest – there is nothing “attractive” about childbirth.

Not even the “alien life-form” is attractive at the moment of birth!

Maybe ours will be?

We had a different teacher than last week and she “caught” us practicing our breathing techniques on the way into class and instantly pegged me as a “funny guy”.

Such type-casting!

We did also learn another breathing technique, too, tonight – so that’s more homework for next week again.

And I didn’t even come CLOSE to getting sick during the video by the way!

A Good Day

Woke up this morning to a pot of coffee with its pleasing aroma. Thank you, wifey!

Had lunch with my buddy, John Bryan at “the bee’s” and then we took off to the local going-out-of-business Christian bookstore where I snagged a few couldn’t-pass 50%-off deals. Good times.

Tonight we had a great youth meeting and a little jam-session afterwards with a 7th grader who rocked out on his guitar with his “I wish I could REALLY play” backup drumming youth pastor!

Ended the evening with a 9:45PM dinner at McDonalds with my beautiful wife.

I will now stay up most of night watching my DVR’d Myth Busters episode and various Cirque Du Soleil DVD special features!

I also have a few late-night eBay auctions that will end tonight that I must check on from time-to-time!

WWCND?

What Would Chuck Norris Do?

Thanks to my good friend Shawn, I will soon be the proud owner of a WWCND? bracelet.

The answer the question?

Simple:

In other “news”, I heard a joke today…

An elderly lady leans over to her husband in church and quietly whispers in his ear, “I just passed gas – and it was silent, what should I do?”

Her husband quickly whispers back, “Get a new battery for your hearing aid.”
