August 7 is a big milestone: 2 months left until Jaclyn's due date. We really think the baby will probably come before then, knowing our family trends, but it is coming so close. I can't believe it. 9 months seems like a long time, but it has gone fast.
Along with this milestone, I have thought more about the fact that we are having a son. Last week in church, a family blessed their son and I began to picture my self doing the same thing in a few months or so. It made the whole baby thing set in a little more solid. In reality, two months is really not that long. 8 weeks means 8 dinner menus, 4 paychecks, 2 more road trips, 2 more family reunions in sort, and really one more Fast sunday. Where does all the time go?
Jaclyn would support me in saying I am very excited for our newborn son. We are still working out some transportation issues, but there are days I can't help but smile or jump up-and-down about it. Having an addition to the family is special to me. It's a new stage of life, a new blessing, a sign of maturity.
Any thoughts of when you first became a parent?

He's cute huh? :)
you both are. two months?? it can't be real. congratulations! you are both (jaclyn...if you're reading) going to be great parents. love ya!
David, you aren't the only two excited for your son. We all are. I'm thrilled to support you in this milestone!
I am so glad that I got to meet you (Jaclyn) at the reunion. And of course seeing my cousing (David) was a perk too, been too long.
As for the parenting thing... Just enjoy and take each day at a time. Nobody else will know your child like you will, so stick to your instincts. I am sure you will do great! Of course, I am still trying to get a few things right. I guess that even 7 1/2 years and 3 kids later, we are all still learning. I hope you take that as encouragement, and not discouragement.
Love, cousin Cami
