CONGRATS!! Yay I get to be first (here).

HOORAY! Wonderful news <3

Mace, you're going to need another broom for when the Rethwylls visit.

And another cat.

Even more good news!

Ha! Two brooms, no waiting. :D

Congratulations hellspawner!!!

Congratulations!!

Thanks everyone! I don't think it's sunk in yet, quite, but we're excited!

Congrats lady!

I don't understand how this could have happened. We didn't go rollerblading.

Have you been skating any time within the last 3 or 4 months? Maybe your mojo is THAT STRONG. Watch out, random women of America! :o

Congratulations!

I actually feel like I should tell you that technically I own three brooms. Yes, three brooms, and I only have four rooms in my apartment. Of course, two of them live outside, and one of them came with the apartment.

Also, I am NEVER going rollerblading with Joe.

@Moose: Three brooms AND a roomba!

Apparently there's no such thing as too many brooms.

(I think the no-rollerblading thing is a good policy, just in case. I can't speak to other extra-curricular activities such as biking, water polo, etc.)

@-j. And yet my apartment is still always a mess! It just goes to show that someone actually needs to USE these things.

@rethwyll Joseph plays water polo? That sounds dangerous in several different ways, not just the baby-making.

@Moose: ...someone actually needs to USE these things.

Jeepers, give rethwyll a break. She's reproducing as fast as she can!

It's not reth that needs the break. Meredith needs to come over.

Seriously -- and for god's sake, DON'T BUY ANY MORE BROOMS.

(I can send Meredith any time -- UPS has overnight delivery. [They'll poke holes in the box for you, won't they?])

@rethwyll No, they make you poke your own holes. Take it from me, poke them before placing Meredith in the box.

I would have thought they'd have pre-poked kid-shipping boxes by now.

@Bustie Sure, and while we're at it the box can be made out of gold and silver. Who's got the money to buy a box with pre-poked holes?

So I guess asking for packing peanuts is out of the question.

She has to eat something on the trip.

Damn, I was just going to use bubble wrap. She LOVES that stuff.

Who doesn't?

I'm trying to ignore the whole uncomfortable commentary above, but I just saw this and omg congrats!!!

Is it too early to start worrying about what color frosting the belly cake at your shower will have?

Yes, slightly too early, nomi. :D (But I like green! ;>)

I'm already searching cake wrecks for the best template.

Oh, Mace. There can be only one: http://bit.ly/XKign.

We'll have to add a fondant Hellspawn 1, watching. Creepily.

As long as she's holding a broom. Creepily.
