The Story Behind the Title

I decided to call this The Real Estate Baby. As most of you know - I've recently been working on a career change. I've gotten my Kansas license and am awaiting my Missouri license. Once I have it (which should be within the next 2-4 weeks), I'll be up and running and ready to help people buy and sell real estate. That's a bit of a plug. And to plug a bit further - if anyone knows anyone that needs to buy or sell in Kansas right now - I can help!

So, I thought The Real Estate Baby was appropriate. Two reasons. First, two very big changes in our life in a pretty short amount of time. Second, whether or not our baby gets to wear clean diapers....or whether we have to rinse out and reuse.....likely depends on how successful my new career is. They are kind of intertwined......

So, that's the general idea. A couple of more items:

1) As I type this, nobody other than my wife knows we are having a baby.
2) As I type this, nobody...including my wife....knows I'm starting a blog about it. She's at a class today and will find out when she gets home.

So, essentially I'm talking to nobody at this point. I just thought it might be nice to have a little reading material ready when I tell people about this.

If you've never read a blog before - you have to work your way up. New posts are always at the top.

Ok......now that we've gotten all of the formalities out of the way.....I'm free to start talking about the baby....which still sounds so strange.....it hasn't really all set in yet!
