Well Nancy and I went to her ultrasound appointment this afternoon and got some great news - the baby is active and healthy. We also found out it's a boy, so Gavin gets his wish for a little brother (and I get my pair of opening batsmen*).
Being a parent can be a strange thing. You love your kids unconditionally and find things affect you emotionally in ways they never did before - yesterday this article brought tears to my eyes and made me want to just rush home and hug Gavin.
But this is a happy day. We have no idea of names yet, but here are a few we probably want to avoid (check out the comments - they're hilarious).

Congrats man! I know you must be pumped up! I have his kettlebells on order!
Congrats Mark! Really pleased for you...
Some of those names to avoid are classics!
Enjoy the weekend,

Congratulations! Nice to meet you via my blog. :)
Here are some interview questions for you, I hope they're not dumb ones since I don't know anything about you!
1. What is your favorite thing about running/living in Texas?
2. Now that your 100 mile race is over... what's your new goal?
3. When was it that you decided to become an ultrarunner?
4. What has been your worst running injury?
5. What is your favorite pre-race dinner?
