Welcome!

Well, it's about time we started a "family blog." Our family, which for so long has consisted of just Kris and myself and was later joined by our cats Onslow and Pauline, will soon grow by one more... the infamous Bean. We found out last December that I was pregnant and have been nervous, excited and anxious ever since.

Due to greet the world on August 17th, the Bean will bring a new dynamic to the TrygKerz household, and we couldn't be more excited. For the last few months, we've been "preparing the nest," as they say... moving bedrooms, painting the walls, attempting to put together furninture, buying diapers (we've choosen to use cloth)... we even bought a new car (don't be sad though, the Red Civic is still around... you won't stop hearing me brag about it's gas miliage anytime soon.) I feel like there is so much to do and the clock is ticking faster and faster. But, then again, are you ever prepared for your first born?

The cats, on the other hand, may not be so thrilled. I imagine a screaming baby is terrifying to a feline that has only had constant attention for over a year.

And, no, we don't know the gender. Feel free to vote for what you think we'll have on our poll on the right.
