A Special Announcement From Robshep.com

As promised I have a special announcement. The Beatles are now on iTunes and my favorite Beatles song is Help. I kid I kid. Last week Apple created some great hype when they posted on iTunes "Tomorrow is just another day...that you'll never forget." Their big new news was that the Beatles are now on iTunes. I thought it would be fun to play off all of that hoopla. I digress.

So there is a curse at the Waters Edge office. Now it's not really a curse and please don't get mad at me for calling it that. I've said for years that whenever a WEC staff member has a baby while on staff it is always a girl. Lead Pastor, Stu had a son, but then started WEC and had two girls. Worship ninja Phil had two girls while on staff. Former WEC employees Bill Sprouse and Ambre Delongchamp both had girls while working at WEC. Jake and Kristi miller got pregnant while on staff and it was a girl. I will be eternally thankful for whatever genders we get, but I would enjoy having a boy.

We are having a boy. We aren't supposed to find out until Dec. 6, but Monica (my wife) is a ninja. She talked to a friend at church and arranged a sneak preview with an ultra sound machine. Baby A was wide open. He was kicking Baby B and spreading his legs for the world to see...or at least the four of us viewing the ultrasound. Baby B was more modest. He or she wouldn't turn over so we couldn't see the gender. I guess we will have to wait until Dec. 6.

I was in such a good mood I decided to dress like a Pilgrim for Thanksgiving with my parents. We celebrated Turkey Day last night. We wanted to wait to post it online until after we told our families. We told my family last night and Monica's today at 2. I hope that you enjoy your Thanksgiving! This is one Thanksgiving that Monica and I will never forget.
