Pole-ar Opposites

The Wife was all over the charts last night. While I was convincing her it would be good for her and the dogs to go for a walk, she whined and pouted like I imagine a child would if you were trying to convince them to go to school on a Saturday. This behavior is an interesting mix of extremely cute and relatively annoying (love you, baby). Once she caved (don't underestimate my persuasiveness) and we started the walk, she was skipping down the sidewalk with the dogs, giddy as could be.

She has her first appointment with her friend's recommended OB tomorrow. I'm thinking I'll go with her if she doesn't mind. I don't want to invade her privacy, and maybe I'll be bored, but I'm hoping the OB has lot's of information to give us. I kind of feel like we're still in the dark and I'm naively waiting for someone to hand us the manual.

That is so cool that you want to be a part of these early visits. Kevin had no interest and I couldn't talk him into it anyway because he couldn't get off work.

Well, I'm really excited and freaked out and the best way I deal with that is to get as much information as I can. So, while I'm happy to support her, it's also a bit selfish. DISCLAIMER: "as much information as I can" does NOT include knowing the details about, or seeing first hand, a woman's ability to pass a bowling ball through a straw. Sorry, that's a bit too much for me.
