It's amazing and even a little pathetic how exciting going out to the movies is when you are a parent of little kids. I mean, on the one hand, it's just the movies. Big freakin' deal. But you and I both know it really is a big deal. Man, it's a movie! In a theater!

ooh, way too many Madisons around here. Blech. Plus, being in the upper midwest, I think people are talking about a city in Wisconsin all the time...

Oh, congrats Radar!!!! Hope the pregnancy is an easy one, and neither of you gain too much weight...

Women are actually pregnant for more than 9 months. 40 weeks is considered full-term, and the big gender-determining sonogram is done at 20 weeks (i.e., about 4 1/2 months.) So she has about another 20 weeks from the date of the sonogram. I'm assuming that was recent, so June 1st sounds about right. First pregnancies are more often late than early anyway.

My son was born on May 31st last year (and I recall my sonogram was a couple of days after New Years too), so maybe they'll share a birthday.

In American dialects it usually does-- Eye-err-land.

Technically it's a dipthong, but we tend to stretch those out.

Ah. Maybe I never heard an American say it. Thanks. Weird, but thanks.

We say Ire-land. Never occurred to me there was any other way, but it probably shoud have.

In which case I'd vote against a first name with 3 syllables. Too many over all.

Nina is perfect. As you were.

You can track the progress of a marriage that way -or so my kids Love, Chardonnay, Bud, Betty-Ford and Meths tell me.

My wife seems pretty attached to Nina Michelle Ireland. It's growing on me too.
