Baby’s Gotta Phat Crib

Yesterday Lindsey and I picked up a crib for the baby. We’ve been watching the cribs on Craigslist for a few months in hopes of finding a really nice second-hand one. It paid off!

First Baby Class

Last night Lindsey and I had our first baby class, along with about fifteen other expectant couples. The class was better than I expected. We learned about the birthing process and the first couple days following.
I did find some of the other classmates to be a bit comical. We were seated behind a nerdy-looking couple who couldn’t keep their hands off each other. The guy could have been Bill Gates’ twin, and the girl was quite a bit younger. Each time he leaned in for a kiss neither Lindsey nor I could see the instructor. During introductions he announced that he already had three children and three grand-children with another mother. I guess you could say he was alumni.
Overall the class was very informative, and the instructor was great. Next time we’ll choose our seats more carefully.

Babymoon in Maui

Lindsey and I went on a babymoon to Maui last week. Nana and Grandpa King had already planned a two week trip there, and they invited us to join them for a portion of it. We spent a week with them swimming, walking, snorkling, diving, and sunbathing.
My dad got some great shots of Lindsey and I on the beach at sunset.




Lindsey’s been craving Frosted Mini Wheats throughout the pregnancy. Hopefully a Costco-sized box will meet her needs.


To take care of my own cravings I found some ultra-yummy 100% Kona coffee and a ginormous bottle of Kirkland-brand vodka. Disclaimer: Both are being saved for Christmas when we’ll have family around to help polish them off.


6-month profile. This is where all the Frosted Mini Wheats are going.




I even got my parents to pose for a couple sunset shots.




Beautiful Maui sunset.
