So, I'm a little late (again!)...today I am 32 weeks and 4 days! I still can't believe how fast and great this pregnancy has gone by! 53 more days before our sweet baby boy’s due date and we couldn't be more excited! Here's me at 32 weeks :) How far along?  32 weeks & 4 days Total weight gain: somewhere around 25...go to the doctor on Friday! Maternity clothes? Still a lot of dresses...I don't want to buy much more! Stretch marks? Still none! Sleep: OKAY...I could use more but getting up every 2 hours to use the bathroom is getting old ;) Best moment this week:  Maternity photos!!! I cannot believe how beautiful they came out!

I don’t know the divorce rate for gay marriages, but we’ve all been touched by the huge amount of failed marriages between males and females.  I’m encouraged and optimistic about your future.  Please, don’t prove us wrong. I believe there is credibility in the old saying, “A relationship is like a garden.  Tended and nurtured, it will flourish.  Left alone, it will wither and die.”  Please, fight to keep that garden alive.  Don’t let the outside influences of life destroy the bond between you. Being a gay couple, you will face obstacles most of us have never imagined.  May those challenges be conquered, when the two of you combine strength, courage and love. If the future involves starting a family, those children will truly be ...
