Scott here and I am starting to freak out a little bit.
Every day that passes, the more I realize I have no clue what to expect...or what I need to do to prepare for the newest addition to the family.
Luckily we have cribs, changing tables, strollers, onesies, bottles, pacifiers, blankets, and other things that I sorta knew we'd need. But, it turns out there are other things that may be involved that I have never even heard of until recently such as:
-Moses basket
-"Swaddlers"
-Boppy
-Nasal Aspirator
-Babywise (people are pretty passionate about this little book)
What is all this stuff? What did we do 100 years ago when most of it didn't exist? What did we do 1,000 years ago etc?
I really wish there was one agreed upon method to this baby business, but no! There are 5 million books with 5 million different messages, tips, and warnings about what should/should not be done with your baby. Sheesh.
Luckily my wife is pretty savvy and will undoubtedly be a grade-A mom, plus we have tons of great family and friends who have done all of this before.
Get ready, I'm preparing to call you for advice

Mashar here and I wanted to say we are back in Yakima (less snow here!!)
I have already mapquested the Hospital address so I have exact directions and can be ready the moment the call "The eagle has landed" comes in or whatever other secret password Scott thinks of.
I know that you will probably have a private event of the birth of your child......but I will be as close as possible to be any support you need. I know you are quite capable of taking care of yourselves and you will have each other in this special bonding experience. You will find out that there is no other like this.
Don't worry Daddy and Mommy because things will come natural to you, I promise.
Thank you for the nice Christmas celebration and I hope it wasn't too hectic.
Love, 0000000000+1+1+1
