Holy Moses Smell the Roses

I can't really think of a more apt description to my reaction than that. I mean, are you kidding me? I thought we were going to the doctor just so that we could hear the heartbeat. Little did either of us know at the time that we'd see the little monster in all of his/her(?) peanut-sized glory. The feeling is truly indescribable. That little creep is going to come barreling out, sorry sugar, of its slumber to greet us in 7 months. There just isn't a word that justifiably describes my emotions nor reactions to seeing our baby for the first time. That was just the first in line of many firsts that we're going to encounter over pretty much the rest of our lives. It's going to be an unbelievable ride. And to my great fortune, I'll have the greatest co-pilot imaginable, not to mention a most trustworthy sidekick who will likely be a slobbering mess by the time all is said and done (and if it wasn't clear, sugar, you are the former, and monster, you are the latter).
