Documenting Petro Kid

Welcome to Matthew and Tracie’s adventures in becoming parents! Here we’ll write about thoughts on the adventure we’ve already embarked upon and share updates on the progress of Petro Kid. Maybe we’ll even produce a collection of updates our child will one day want to read to find out what his or her parents were like in 2010 as we prepared for the arrival.

We’re at the 11 week mark right now, so some of the pregnancy has passed now. Tracie is still feeling queasy and not particularly great, but we’re hoping that will end with the first trimester.

Matthew’s thoughts:

I wish I’d gotten this set up earlier, but there’s no time like the present to get started! It’s a busy time around our house, so this got put off for a while. But now I’m excited to share some of how it feels to be an expectant dad. I know not everyone wants to read this, but if you do, I hope you enjoy it!
