So now that the secret is out, I have a bunch of stuff that I have been dying to share here in the blog world. This is child number one for the Howe fam and I intend to document and share most of the experience. Over the next week I will share about my first visit to what I lovingly refer to as the “Lady Dr” – Here are my initial reactions of my field trip!
-
First thing I saw was 2 women in their late 20’s that looked like they were ready to blow up…seriously at anytime these lady’s could have exploded.
-
Apparently one of them was a week past due and the baby inside was already weighing in at 10lbs. That lady was not in a good mood…
-
I saw my future flash before my eyes
-
They took us into a little room where a lady gave me about 25 parenting magazines (I must look like I need a lot of advice)…and then asked tons of questions such as, Do we do drugs or have a history of rare disease. Fun Times
-
They then moved us to another room where that was filled with what seemed like fairly primitive tools…Dude I thought we were living in modern times…there were all kinds of clamps and stirrups and other bizarre looking stuff.
-
I must have told God how glad I was to be a dude at least 30 times
-
I was the only guy in the whole place
-
I was amazed the Dr. could use the words she did and keep a straight face…I had to fight to keep one the entire time.
More to come…this is going to be fun.

[...] there now, they all think I am quite funny and I fit right in. I have come a long way since “My first time.” Maybe it has something to do with “My Secret” or just that I have been there [...]
