Wow. Looks like we've not spoken in quite some time.

seconding.

The mother is the girl you (Wren) met last time I came up your way. We moved in together (which really means she moved down to Corvallis to live with me, though I was not the sole reason she moved) at the end of last year. While her being pregnant was a bit of a surprise, it's not unwelcome, as our relationship was moving in that direction anyway. She's about 6 weeks along, which puts her due date near the end of October/early November.

So yeah, I'm shocked/scared as all hell, but really happy, too =)

Wait, what?

And given the tone of post, there's always the question "Planned, or not?".

But it seems you're fine with it anyway, so hey, congrats.

Unplanned, yes, but not wholly unprepared-for. I should have some more news in the next month or so in that direction, but can't say much yet. Suffice to say that I've been working on a project for my current company which is about to hit production, and coupling that with my pending graduation (final for my last class until I decide to go to Grad school is on Thursday, so help me I WILL pass it this time...), I'll be hired on as a full project engineer fairly soon, with a commensurate doubling of my pay.
