Title: Two good things
Post by: Music-chan on March 18, 2014, 02:55:41 PM
So, CyMage and myself have announced this in IRC and the like, but we're horrible slackers when it comes to posting anything on the boards.  Oops! Might as well do it now.

This year marks two big milestones for us.  First, July 31st is our 10th anniversary.  Which means we've been hanging around here for even longer then that.  To everyone who came to our wedding and/or sent us well wishes, thanks!  It's been a great ride and no regrets.  Here's to another 10 years.

Our second big milestone will be when we inflict our child upon the world sometime in August.  Look, you guys have been asking us when we were going to have kids for a while so there's your answer!  Currently everything is going fine.  We're almost half way there and there are no problems.  Just to head off any early questions, we probably won't know the gender until sometime in May.  Looking forward to raising a internet addicted, anime loving, gamer person....which probably means they'll be completely normal.  Oh well!

Originally, I was hoping we could do a mini-gathering to celebrate our anniversary with you guys but it looks like that's out for now.  You are spared our presence for the moment.  To anyone who might be in Toronto this year, feel free to stop by and visit and say hello!  We offer you our uncomfortable futon as a place to sleep.  Otherwise, we'll see you guys around the internet.

Congratulations! I don't have much else to say, but may you have another good ten years and a wonderful child.

Well here's a thing. The other day I was thinking about the two of you having kids. Lo and behold, it's happening.

I CAN MAKE COUPLES GET PREGNANT WITH MY BRAIN

OH GOD I HAVE SO MUCH RESPONSIBILITY NOW

If "the other day" was around the end of November, then you are correct!  If not, then our getting pregnant makes you think of people having kids and I'm not sure how amazing of a power that is.

So....an update!

We had our 10 year anniversary.  We went downtown, bought some books and saw Guardians of the Galaxy in a fancy VIP theater with over-priced food.  It was good. :)

On August 16, at 10:57pm, our son was born.  Eryk Alistair was 9lb 1.2oz and 21 inches long.   He's a big boy, which should surprise no one who has seen Cy and myself in person.

That is all! No pictures for you! =p

Musicmage would be a good class in D&D. Completely unlike a bard, I swear!

Here is a picture for you.  I want to get more geeky type outfits for him but it's a good thing we waited; he's outgrown all of our newborn stuff.

one month.  Another couple of months and we might start getting more sleep.  And I might get the chance to play games again.

If you want a picture of the fetus, I could totally link you an ultrasound scan. >_>

It's a fetus until it can do long division.
