Week 9

We have had our second doctor's visit and everything is looking good!

Here is the latest ultrasound of Thunderstruck "Dynamite" Couch.


The two white crosses are his/her measurement. A healthy 22mm!

The doctors at Kuroishi hospital reminded us that they do not use any pain killers during birth. Risa was a little concerned since we would like to have a natural birth.

I reassured her that it couldn't be any worse than this:

Father To Be

October 6th, 2008 will be a day to remember! For everyone! For it is the day that Shamalama was told that he will be a father!



This is the first recorded picture of the soon to be famous

DYNAMITE COUCH!!!
THUNDERSTRUCK COUCH!!!
(Name pending.)

First grandson/daughter, first nephew/niece (sex also pending atm), first red-headed Japanese!

For anyone who has forgotten to breath due to the shock of me becoming a father...

"Deep breath, there ya go, now through your noes, aaahhh, that's better..."

Risa is now in her 8th week and we will know the exact due date by next doctor visit. Looking at a few charts the date should be around the end of May, beginning of June.

Oh, and since my choice of name will probably be shot down any suggestions are appreciated!

I will leave you with a couple pictures my grandmother sent me recently of two little devils some of you might recognize.
