The countdown is on

Yup. 17 days until the next little Ulriksen child shows up. We had another Doctor's appointment yesterday (and by we, I mean Terra was grilled and inspected while I read the newspaper and magazine and tried to pay enough attention that I looked involved. Yesterday wasn't the best "support your wife" day I've ever had - usually I'm not quite so distracted). Everything looks good and we did all of the hospital pre-op stuff, so now we just need to wait a few more weeks and go check her in.

We're really hoping it's a girl. We're running out of boys names that we really like and want to use.

Giants won the Superbowl. Whoddathunk it? I'm not sure who I was cheering for, so I'm relatively okay with that. Good fourth quarter, although the rest of the game was kind of weak.

I got to lead worship on Sunday. And preach. On homosexuality (we're discussing "Issues" at present - stuff like gambling, drinking, Sabbath, etc) It's a good series, and the sermon went well, but I was exhausted afterward. Went home and slept for three hours, and was still exhausted. Fortunately my wife loves and supports me lots, and she let me sort of watch the Superbowl (I wasn't super-passionate about it, so I played some with the kids) and she did a lot to take care of the kids. I love my wife. This week I have a nice, light topic to preach on - divorce. That doesn't actually affect anyone's life, does it? Sigh. Another tiring week coming up....
