Author: That’s right people, I’m gonna be a poppa.
Isn’t our peanut sized fetus cute?
We’d been secretly trying for a couple of months, and we found out she was pregnant around the end of November. I haven’t yet been able to wrap my head around it… I suppose it will take a while. I told Sarah to be prepared for the moment it finally sinks in and I panic, scream and pass-out. I just hope I land on something soft.
For most of my life I thought I would never have kids… Sarah changed all that. Over the years, I’ve come to the realization that Sarah will be the greatest mom ever to walk to face of the earth. Any parental ineptness on my part will be canceled out by the parental genius of my incredible wife. She was born to be a mom. I have a lot to learn from her, and I’m looking forward to every minute of it.
I’m sure that from this point on, this blog will take a steep angled turn to chronicle my experiences as a soon-to-be-father. I can’t even fathom the depths of which my life is about to change…

Yo Cous,
Congratulations!!!!!!!! Your mom emailed me around Christmas and told me about it. I’m so excited because you guys are going to be great parents. About the sinking in, it probably won’t happen until the baby is home from the hospital and waking you up at night.
I love you both,
Stacie
Your life as you know it will soon be over…
CONGRATS!!!
Having a child will test the limits of your joy and your frustration…and make you see how selfish you are (at least it did for me).
We’re “stoked” (as these west coasters say) for you and Sarah and wish you an easy pregnancy and a healthy beautiful little Yarbrough in 6 months!!
