Concepticon

I just got the good news this morning. My wife is pregnant with our fourth child. I’m pretty stoked. We’ve been working at this for about a year.
.
The official story is that the child was conceived at Adepticon. Now that’s good gamer mojo!

Other Gately baby trivia

  • We have three children ages three, six and eight.
  • Each child was born in a different state: Oregon, California and Utah.
  • All of them were born “mind over matter” style with no medical intervention. Tamie is like some kind of goddess with that.
  • I want to have five kids, Tamie wants three, so we compromised on four. If the business goes well, we might adopt!
  • When we got married I didn’t want to have any kids at all. At the time I characterized babies as “the scourge of the earth”.
  • When I got the news that my wife was pregnant with my first child, my thought was “well, there goes my freedom”.
  • My heart changed the day my eldest, a daughter, was born. You can actually see it on the tape. I keep repeating “she’s so beautiful…”
  • I became an expert at managing children as a fourth-grade teacher.
  • Tamie is a stay at home mom and loves every minute of it!

PS- If you feel inclined to send a “congratulations” you can do so right here on the blog. But don’t feel obligated, I’m OK with that. I’m not good at that sort of thing either. Also, there is a remote chance this could be a false alarm; but I was so excited I couldn’t hold it in!!!
