36 week update by guest blogger Michael Tully

Jenna and I have just returned from the Doctors office for our 36 week check up on junior. Everything went exceedingly well the Dr. is really happy with Jenna, she barely stopped short of high-fiving us as we exited. I can only hope that things go just as smoothly in the coming weeks, months, decades etc.

She predicted that the baby would be somewhere between 7lbs 14oz and 8lbs 2oz which is a bit of a relief (particularly for Jenna) considering that both of us were practically ready to wear adult clothing when we emerged.

As we left the building we both got free flu shots which was nice considering that I feel like there'll be enough hospital excursions coming up. At least I assume they were flu shots. I did type the first draft of this email on the toaster, so who knows.

We're now getting down to crunch time and the baby formerly known as Nordley, has a pretty cozy looking room. Could use a little more decoration, but the furniture, assembled by me (a.k.a. the Allen Wrench Ninja) is all ready to go.

Excitement and nerves are building and we can't wait to meet the new addition to the family.


Either the Baby's face or the Sea of Tranquility on the Moon.


Top of the Baby's head. Braaaiins... braaaiins...


The Baby's arm and shoulder apparently or maybe a butt or something...
