This is the most excited I've seen anyone over a giant internal parasite since my aunt lost all that weight from a tape worm.

Um, dantes, it's not a giant parasite yet. At this stage, it's still very very small.
Congrats, ketchups! (I was thinking that this was what the thread was going to be about before I opened it. Hah! I'm psychic!)

I totally read this as "farm." I was like, "Man, I know we're a fast-growing family but we only have 2 cats and live in the city. Are we really a farm?"

How do people get pregnant out of an Ahem and smiley face? Congrats! When does the little one grace the world with its presence?

Bleh! Fine! You know pretty vases have been linked to this sort of thing. I have no idea what Chinese dishes do however. Posts: 14316 | Registered: Jul 2005

Apparently, they hide in plain sight. Two of my three kids couldn't pick out the new item on my display shelves -- and it's the tallest thing on them! Posts: 32919 | Registered: Mar 2003

Should I send a suitable neon sign? Do you have alot of Chinese memorabilia on your display shelves?

That's the funny thing. It is quite different from anything else on the shelves -- although it is not the only piece which is unique.

Can you confirm that Rivka and I are the last hatrackers to see you in an unpregnant state?
edit: oh and my sincerest congratulations!
A couple of weeks, rivka's right, that would definitely be KPC, with Ketchup Princess right before him, and thank you.
I will assume that the pretty vase may or may not have had something to do with it, so I will have to keep it safe. Posts: 21182 | Registered: Sep 2004

KQ: OK OK! Barring family members, does that make me and Rivka the last ones? ;P
Rivka: I guess I have no choice but to make sure the next time I make a trip to LA, to present a gift that is impossible to miss when placed in your home. You can decide if that's a bad or good thing. Posts: 14316 | Registered: Jul 2005

Yes, you and Rivka were the last non-family members to see me un-pregnant. Third to last was Boon. Posts: 21182 | Registered: Sep 2004

If it's a boy, it should be "His Lordship Duke VonHeinz" or something.

We haven't discussed screen names yet, we're still arguing over middle names. (We already know if it's a girl it will be Margaret, called Maggie, and if it's a boy it will be James, called Jimmy, but we're debating on middle names-- I know what I want but Jeff is not quite agreed.) I think we'll refer to him/her as "the ketchup packet" until he/she is born, same as last time.
