Top 5 List...

OK, for all my joking around, I am incredibly excited to be a father.  One thing I can't wait for is the opportunity, some day, to embarrass the hell out of my teenage daughter. With that in mind, here is my initial thoughts on how I plan to mortify my little angel:

  1. Picking up the carpool wearing my v-neck undershirt, with chest hair in full view. (thanks to Dad for teaching me that one!)
  2. When she brings home her first boyfriend, breaking out the baby photo album and paging through for several hours, making it clear that it would be very rude for him to leave before I'm done.
  3. Farts. Lots of farts.
  4. Telling extremely corny jokes whenever she brings over friends. (thanks Dad for that one as well)
  5. Posting gawky adolescent pictures of her to facebook, and tagging her so all her friends can see.

    Here's where I solicit the help of all the dads out there on the internets. How do you go about embarrassing your daughters? Feel free to contribute ideas via the Comments section.

We are pregnant, yo


Well, after nearly three years of blissful marriage we are taking on our next challenge. We are excited to announce that Lila is 20 weeks pregnant with our first child. We have codenamed the project "Baby Buko" in honor of far-and-away the best flavor of ice cream at Mitchell's.

Here's our first glimpse of Baby Buko, who incidentally is a girl.

According to the picture, she appears to have lips. With that in mind, I will be arranging for a paternity test shortly.

Sorta...

Just adding that while "Baby Buko" is not my favorite ice cream flavor, I am extremely grateful that learning the gender has stopped E referring to the baby as "Clyde". That was getting awkward.

With E's penchant for nicknames, I can only imagine the embarrassing things we'll be calling her. Look out, baby!
