Another baby on the way...

So my wife is pregnant again and we found out yesterday it is a boy! I truly didn't care what we had because I love my daughter to death and she is soo great. My wife and I just wanted a healthy baby like our first. Now I can sit back and realize how my life is going to be with a boy instead of 2 girls. First off, I now have someone to help me out with yard work, washing cars, and other "man chores". I'm not saying I won't let my daughter help if she wants, but most girls don't want to do that type of work. Secondly, I have someone to watch football with. Once again a bit of a stereotype, but oh well. If I had another girl I would be outnumbered 3 to 1. At least now it is 2 to 2. And finally, I don't have to worry about the last name dying with me and my brothers. We have all had girls (my sister in law is pregnant too, but they don't know the sex yet).

So it is good times for my wife and I right now.


So what else is goin on? Well 1 week until Christmas break and everything is going well. I think I am doing about 1000 times better in my Algebra 2 classes this year. We took the benchmark tests and my classes were in the high 60's for averages which is pretty good for a test that covers 4 chapters (almost a mid-term). My Algebra B's a coming along slowly. Some that struggle just give up, but those that stick with it are starting to see improvement, which is what I have told them since day one.

Musically, let's see no new albums out. But some exciting news this week. First off Protest the Hero released a new song from their next album, Fortress. The song is called Sequoia Throne and it sounds like it could have been taken off their debut Keiza. I am really excited about this album. BTW the song is on their my space page, HERE. But something more exciting is the news Matt Barlow has returned to Iced Earth as lead vocalist. I will talk more abou this, but this is great news. Barlow has one of the best metal vocals out there right now.

That's it, music this week and next week is all Christmas music, so not too much there.
