If I give you some big news, will you forgive my absence?

So, I know it's been awhile since I posted here, but I think I can make it up to you by saying this:

I AM GOING TO BE A PARENT.

Big enough news for ya? ;)

Now that you've all stopped shouting for joy/jumping up and down/regained consciousness, I'll tell you that we're both very excited, and that Baby A. is due around July 12th. We had a great checkup at Amy's doctor's office today, and all is proceeding according to plan. Lots of big changes on the way, but I assure you, Gentle Readers, that my offspring will be welcomed by two loving, excited (and sometimes a bit overwhelmed) parents.

Thanks for your support, and if I hit you up for diaper money some time around August, help a brother out and go get me some Pampers. Your humble host will appreciate it.

Best,
Eric, Amy and Baby A.
