So...looks like I'm gonna be a Dad!

[colleyvillesooner]

Yep, god willing, come Valentine’s Day, we'll be welcoming a mini CVS into this world. I was actually in Japan on business when I found out. I knew she was going to the doctor for a cautionary test, but didn’t think it was likely to come out positive, as we weren't really trying yet. We had planned to start next year. WRONG!

I arrived after 28 hours of travel at the Osaka Hilton to an envelope from the front desk with an email inside from her telling me the great news. I was in total shock. The co worker who was with me asked what was wrong and all I could do was point to the piece of paper :D

Mrs. CVS is doing great. She’s 3 months right now, and hasn’t gotten sick at all yet. Reading lots of books, exercising and eating right are top shelf now.

We’re not going to find out if it’s a boy or girl until the delivery. I don’t really care either way, just want a healthy baby.

Thanks for any prayers and well wishes during this exciting time. We'll see you guys at the tailgates this year. I'll be the one drinking away my last real season ;)

Side Note:

One of the first things she said was “I’m so glad I won’t be super pregnant during football season.” Damn, I love this woman. :D

[Mjcpr]

That's probably where you were during conception, too.

Congrats. :D

[stoops the eternal pimp]

[Tulsa_Fireman]

Congrats! You'll wonder how you lived without 'em.


Seriously.

You'll scratch your head and wonder what life was before you had children because it'll be so far gone, you wouldn't know what it was if someone told you. You'll honestly forget how the childrenless live.

And that's not a bad thing.

Congratulations! Welcome to the club.

[Curly Bill]

They go from thinking you're the coolest to thinking you're a dork in a short time. It's amazing how fast it goes.

[GrapevineSooner]

Congrats CVS. I can assure that when the big day comes when your son or daughter is welcomed into the world, it's a day neither you nor Mrs. CVS will soon forget.

Doc,

My 5 year old already thinks I'm a dork. ;)

"Football" it is.

[Harry Beanbag]

We’re not going to find out if it’s a boy or girl until the delivery. I don’t really care either way, just want a healthy baby.


That's what we did, and it was so worth it. It will totally drive your friends and family insane though. :D

[USCMichigander]

Congratulations! Will your child grow up cheering on the Sooners, or will you give him a little free will :P and perhaps he'll begin loving the C&G?

Should be fun!

[SoonerStormchaser]

CVS, how's she doing on the morning sickness? With Carolyn, it's turning into all-day sporadic sickness...and fast!

[colleyvillesooner]

Yeah, not a chance. :D

[colleyvillesooner]

She actually hasn't been sick once. She's a little nauseous in the morning, but once she eats she's good.

[SoonerStormchaser]

That's kinda how my wife is going...except it's an on/off all day.

[Tailwind]

Congrats to all you soon-to-be parents. It's a wild ride, but truly worth it. Only you never stop worrying about them. Never.

[StoopTroup]

Congrats Colley...that's awesome.

[colleyvillesooner]

Update:

We've officially passed the due date (yesterday). If the little one doesn't come by Tuesday, Mrs. CVS be induced that morning. Needless to say, she is DONE being pregnant.

I'll post a few pics as soon as everything settles down. Prayers will be welcomed.

[olevetonahill]

You got em bro
I bet yall are excited .

[colleyvillesooner]

I got that "excited/scared" feeling. Like 98% excited, 2% scared. Or maybe it's more - It could be two - it could be 98% scared, 2% excited but that's what makes it so intense!

[NormanPride]

The crappy thing is there is essentially nothing the guy can do about the situation. Be strong, and remain positive and supportive. I guess that's all you can do!

[JohnnyMack]

You really expect us to believe that you've only been a catcher once in your life?

:pop:

[frankensooner]

No, you pervert, that is what they call it when you get to assist your lovely wife/mistress/significant other/stranger in a cab in childbirth. You grab the wee babe's head and twist it, it feels like you are going to pull it off but nope, the baby pops out. Very cool indeed.

Thanks, but Homo ********* doesn't really have a ring to it. But it works for you, it works.

That was the first diaper change and I think I used half a pack of wipes getting that crud off. But that's my job. Jen is a long way from changing a diaper if I have a say.
