Big news. Little thing.
We picked up a little something at the Joshua Radin concert last weekend that we'd like to share.
Yes, that's a onesie. And no, it's not a gift for someone else.
That's right, we're thrilled to finally announce that we're expecting a little Lindeman. The due date is May 1, which means we're going on just about 13 weeks of keeping the secret and making preparations. And we're slowly adjusting to the idea of becoming a party of five (hopefully this kid won't be as hairy as our other two).
While we really enjoyed the concert on Saturday, it was extra special because it was the first time the kid was exposed to live music. Joshua Radin coined his own genre as "whisper rock" -- and we anticipate his CDs making perfect lullabye music for many late nights to come. But as mellow as the concert was, you wouldn't know it by the heartbeat we heard Monday morning. We were told the average rate is 150-160 at this stage. Little Lindy came in at 164 -- we can only imagine he or she must have been dancing to one of the U2 songs dad and mom have been playing at high volumes whenever possible.
Just like this onesie is the first thing we've bought for the kid so far, this is also the first of many blog posts to come about our new adventures in parenthood. We hope you'll enjoy the ride with us.
Craig and Carrie
