More Sweetness.
JC Martin at The Fighter Writer has kindly awarded me with the Irresistibly Sweet Award. The rules are
1. Thank the one who gave you the award (Thanks JC, that's awesome!)
2.Award five Bloggers that you've recently discovered. Sadly, I've recently discovered over 200 through Rachel Harrie's Bloggers' Crusade, and I have LOTS more to Follow, so it's taking up a lot of my computer time. I'm afraid I'll have to pass on the nominations until I have more hours in the day.
3.List seven things about yourself.
Alright, here goes. First, my wife has recently acquired a Super Sniffer, and with her new enhanced sense, I need to shower TWICE a week!
Second, Rach's Crusade has me Following more Blogs than I can regularly Comment on, so please forgive my sporadic appearances, but really, 200+? That's a pretty tall order.
Third, I have a designated driver for the summer, but if I abuse it, I'll wind up with a black eye and a limp.
Fourth, I may be joining a local Metal band soon, but at the moment, it's a big “We'll see...”
Fifth, There will be a lot more Decaf coffee in the house, and a lot less pop, due to a short-term caffeine intolerance.
Sixth, We will be preparing a new room for Snookerdoodles over the summer.
And Seventh, just in case you haven't put the clues together:
WE'RE HAVING ANOTHER BABY!
We found out EXACTLY two years after we found out about the first, Feb 4th. (Cool, eh?), and we're pretty excited. We've been trying for a few months (and a couple times since we found out, just to be sure), so it's quite a relief. Doing this with a 2-year-old in the house will be quite the challenge, but millions have done it before, and if (did I really say “if”?) it gets overwhelming, well, that's why God gave us grandparents!

CONGRATS, DADDY!!! So glad you spilled the punchline because I haven't had time to read many blogs lately and if you hadn't told me I might not have been the first commenter to tell y'all how totally freaking happy I am for your newest bun in the oven!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Have fun chasing babies everywhere! (I think that's the best part! I love chasing my Niece and nephew all over everything! their dad my not like it so much, we tend to knock stuff over!)
ReplyDeleteGood luck.
Congratulations! That's wonderful news.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS!! What great news! You'll literally have your hands full--in a good way!--when baby arrives, with a toddler on top of it!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the baby news! Here's to you being able to make time for it all!
ReplyDelete- Sophia.
Congratulations! And try following 550 blogs...
ReplyDeleteWOOOOO! Me, too. And you better not forget about MY blog. Because I'll write nasty things about you. Like how you only shower ONCE a week. And other bad things. I'll just make them up. I'm dastardly.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!
I KNEW IT WHEN YOU SAID YOUR WIFE HAD A SUPER SNIFFER! I didn't even have to keep on scrolling down to get to your big announcement. I could smell what the neighbors were cooking for dinner 2 streets over when I was pregnant. CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH OF YOU!
ReplyDeleteOh, Will, congratulations! That is so exciting. I have to admit, I was skimming (it's what I tend to do on awards) but I saw that and had to give a shout. VERY exciting! (and how funny on the timing!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations that is wonder news...
ReplyDeleteWhen I was pregnant I could smell like a blood hound.
Congratulations! Welcome to the nut house. If you're strapped for who to give the award, I'm sweet, dammit! I really am. :D
ReplyDeleteHi Will - Congratulations! and nice to meet you. I'm a fellow crusader here to say hi and follow - not in your genre group, but all the same... :) I am a picture book writer, so maybe some interest in your house? And, if you're interested, there's still time to win a signed picture book on my blog if you get your entry in before 9 AM EST tomorrow (Friday) morning - it's by a guest author/illustrator (not me) and called PENNY LOVES PINK, so if your 2 year old is a boy, maybe not the right contest :) Looking forward to getting to know you better.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! And yes - grandparents are wonderful. I don't know what I'd do without my mom to help out!
ReplyDeleteFellow crusader here! Enjoy your weekend!
Huzzah.
