So it turned out that my coworkers all got together to throw my wife and I a baby shower!!!
It was fun. One of my German coworkers made a couple of kuchen, and they all pitched in for 12 weeks of diaper service!! VERY cool. My wife is still excited over the prospects of having someone else wash diapers for the first four months we have the baby.
So, the work day is slowing to a stop, and she and I need to go.
Happy trails!
