My Latest Project (or Freeman 2.0)
We're using the latest in genetic algorithms and self-modifying iterative code on this new project. Truthfully, the approach is beyond me, so I'm strictly oversight and logistics now that the program is seeded. The specifications aren't complete yet, but expected ship date is 24 Feb 2009.
I'm sure Lisa will never let me, but I'm partial to the following names: Nicholas Stuart or Natalie Sawyer.

You are embarking on the greatest project and adventure of them all!
Will you stop smoking?

While I did not have any hand in this, I feel like I was involved in your learning about it. For everyone else ... Nathan and I were driving from Westford at the XPages Training last month to Boston, trying to get him on a flight home. The GPS sucked and we made every wrong turn possible. In the middle of all this, Lisa called Nathan and told him. Man, after that, we did everything we could so he made his flight! :)

@10 - I can't believe I didn't think to make a replication joke myself.
To all, we really are thinking of painting the nursery yellow. And you can certainly expect lots of baby pictures in yellow clothing.

The template is now ready for production
But I also think you might want to add a "Beta" after "Freeman 2.0" because there will be many "changes" in the lifespan of this particular product.

Check out namenerds.com. A friend of mine runs it and it's pretty unique amongst sites in that it condenses the name frequency lists combining like names (Kate, Katherine, Catherine, etc).
It's also one of the two concepts I was going to try to do a XPages driven facebook app for.

Of course, there's always the gender-neutral Morgan.

We're going to see how she feels in January about coming to 'sphere. There is quite a nice spa at the Dolphin, but it's ridiculously expensive.
@38 & 35 - Ah... somebody finally got the joke!

Congratulations!

EVERYONE is going to offer advice, whether you want it or not. You'll need a full text index to sort it all out. Here's my 2cents:
Baby Depot and Walmart and the like have many gadgets to make life easier. Spare no expense, get the best rocking chair, crib and furniture now while you still can. Get the evenflo bottles and plenty of spare nipples both stage 1 and 2. Get the wipe-warmer. Get a Diaper Genie II (best invention ever). Get a Sam's Club membership for wipes, diapers, and formula if needed. Get a baby bottle brush and one of those steam sanitizers for the bottles. This fall when your wife is "nesting", best to just get out of the way and do what you are told and lift heavy stuff. It is perfectly normal to spend those first couple of months that won't remember chatting about baby poop. "The Poop Report" will happen daily.

There's a Babies 'R Us across the street from my office. We've already gone perusing in there. But I think I'm going to sick my bargain hunting mother on the challenge of "find less expensive ways to meet these 10 needs" kind of thing. She is to home accessorizing what Notes is to business applications.

Wipe warmer? Nah, they don't get THAT cold!!
If you have a boy, we may have some seasonally-correct clothing left from Ollie since he's a March baby, but Jen's already consigned a good bit of stuff.

As they say in the holy land B'shaa tova and as they say in the Godfather, may your first child be a masculine one.
