Lil’ G: 38 weeks down


Size Comparison: BIG WHEEL!

The classic big wheel was (and still is) an incredibly simple and, yet, and incredibly awesome idea. If anything, the simplicity makes it all the more perfect. Throw in a handbrake for some serious spin action along with a few streamers for bling and you’ve got one of the greatest ride-on toys ever made.

Less than 2 weeks until the due date! I must say, we’re probably as ready as we’ll ever be. The hospital bag is packed, the car seat’s installed, and the parents are excited to meet the new addition to the family. Our weekly appointment with the doctor went great. There were definite signs that the baby is getting ready but nothing to indicate that we need to rearrange the weekend plans (not that we had any). Who knows?

Last weekend included two showers. I can’t believe how wonderful everyone has been. My wife’s coworkers threw one Friday night. They we’re terrific, blessed us with beautiful gifts, and we’re welcoming to my Mother-in-Law and one of our visiting college friends. Saturday brought a party/shower with college friends. They’re awesome…wonderful gifts, beautiful themed cake, and so much fun. But, you know what? While the gifts were great, it was the time and the caring that meant the most. Well, that and getting to look at my ex-roommate’s old high school yearbooks.

I love you guys!

Denisa and Brett,

I hope all is going well with you and future “g.” I am looking forward to being called Uncle Ron and teaching “g” all of my big brother super powers. You know, ALL the classics…pull my finger, get me another beer and I show you how I can make it disappear, and name that smell.

I know you probably didn’t want to let the cat out of the bag, but I am honored that you chose to name your baby boy or girl, Ron. It’s a real honor for me.

Miss you guys very much and I will be praying for all of you.

Love,

Ron
