First Post from the Mom to Be

Very exciting to have a space dedicated to this next adventure in my and Lee's lives/relationship/marriage. We're both very excited about this event and can't wait to share all the wonderful moments with friends and family - which hopefully the blog will facilitate.

We're half-way through the pregnancy and both beginning to feel a little anxious about the whole thing (or at least I can speak for myself). It seems like there's so much still to do and even though we have SOME time to work with, I'm assuming the second 20-ish weeks will go as quickly as the first 20 weeks.

We've been lucky to have a lot of great friends who have already gone through the experience very generously share advice, breast pumps, diapers etc. So I know we're in good hands as this event unfolds! Can't wait to start posting pics and giving everyone the updates on the Rowdy Chilcote's daily antics (okay - the baby isn't really named Rowdy Chilcote - but we had to come up with a temporary name since we're not finding out if it's a boy or girl - and just calling it "baby" or "alien" all the time gets a little old).
